CGiii Comment

Oh Eloy, Eloy, Eloy...you really weren't a very good director.

A typical tale of teens doing drugs...with diabolical dialogue and acting.

Watch Christaine F. - a fine example of the genre - this, in contrast, is gratuitous piffle accompanied by incompetence and terrible music.

The withdrawal scene is laughably bad - the whole thing is just...bad.
