...A picture of a very ephemeral kind of Southern California culture....[Young and Woods are] effective...

Underrated look at the horrors of drug addiction. James Woods, as always, is terrific.

As Lenny and Linda head for the bottom, the movie turns into one of the most convincing and horrifying portraits of drug addiction I've ever seen.
