Strange, because as I recall, marihuana does pretty much the opposite.I mean, when is the last time you saw a person smoking marihuana that got hysterical, instead of mellow.
What, the US goverment wrongly informing people ? That is MADNESS !
I can’t really be bothered to watch it, but I know that a good few people I know who’ve smoked pot often and ended up really paranoid. Others haven’t. Seems that some people can handle it while others can’t.
I still cant see how some americans condemn weed and then dont even think about how hypocritical they are for not condemming (spelling?) alchohol in the same process. I mean, weed never killed anyone.. and how many die by alchohol every day? I’d rather see my child stoned than drunk (even better would be neither of those), that sounds weird by todays morals but if you put the straight facts next to eachother you’d realy wonder why the hell alchohol is even LEGAL o_O if it wasnt so embedded in our culture im pretty sure that it would be considered a hard drug.
I…well…Let me just say this: Ive never done drugs, I have friends that have, I have no plans to do drugs, but after watching that instead of making me not want to to drugs, it only made me want to do drugs so that I have to go to the mental hospital and be far far away from horrible movies like that. Then again, they would problably make me watch more of those movies there, so I guess this movie worked. It sucked tho.
Actually weed does have side effects like psychosis and paranoia theres a lot of badly informed teens that do not know that. But alcohol is a lot worse and thats pretty accepted so i see you point acid but weed aint harmless…
I own it, and the first time I watched it I was stoned and laughed my @ss off! @LIFE, Paranoia, yes -I used to be paranoid as all get out when I was a kid and smoked, but now when I have the occasional puff from a marijuana cigarette I am not paranoid. I have never heard of Psychosis with weed. But, yeah, weed is not the gateway drug, Alcohol is. It’s normally what most kids try first.
I watch part of this and can’t help but laugh….weed is a drug yes and can mess you up – but as a drinker, I know alcohol does much worse to those who lose control and don’t know when to stop. I’ve seen both cause issues but inevitably – i’d rather meet up with a stoner than drunk in a dark alley.
Lifeisaglitch, i totally agree, its not harmless, but still, americans are pretty misinformed on the subject, thinking its addictive just like nicotine/heroin, and that you can OD on it and that you’ll become violent and stuff like that. But.. thats all just BS.. I know you can get addicted to weed but thats nothing compared to nicotines addiction. A frien of mine quit smoking his daily blunt a few months ago, all he had was three weeks of sleeping troubles, now try and quit your sigarette
Oh fuck i’m ranting again okay my point is, yeah lifeisaglitch, i agree
Not as entertaining as “Space Madness”
But oh well. Don’t fear the reefer.
Remember kids drugs will make you kill people.

The new musical version is even better.

A bit long, innit?
The sound quality and grating music make me want to murder.
