1. Trainspotting. Sick, funny, morbidly fascinating. Who could have guessed that Ewan McGregor would become a heartthrob?
2. Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas. Hands down, the absolute funniest movie I have ever seen. And true. Sure, it is.
3. The Basketball Diaries. Harrowing autobiographical tale of a descent into depravity. Leonardo DiCaprio is riveting.
4. Less Than Zero. One of Robert Downey Jr.’s best performances ever. Too bad it was prophetic.
5. Blow. OK, I haven’t seen it yet. But it’s a true story, it sounds good, and I adore the guy who plays Tuna in it. Plus, it’s got a killer soundtrack.
6. Homegrown. Jon Bon Jovi, Ryan Philippe and weed. You’ll love it.
7. Up In Smoke. Cheech and Chong at their funniest, driving a van built of pot. We watch this about once a week.
8. Bongwater. I put this on here as a joke. There’s no way I could watch a movie with Jack Black, Andy Dick and Jamie Kennedy in it.
9. Valley Of The Dolls. Drug abuse, circa 1967. Sharon Tate’s only starring role, just two years before her murder by Charles Manson.
10. Reefer Madness. Made in 1938, this movie used to be required viewing in schools. Did you know marijuana use leads to insanity?!?! Best watched stoned.
