I have to say, if there is one thing junkies like almost as much as shooting up, it's making 60-second youtube videos about heroin using puppets. I am waiting for Junky and Cain's Book next. Of course, they will need to be made into big-budget movies first, since today's young technically-minded junkies can't be bothered to read, apparently.

The puppets should have all been double-headed dildos with faces drawn on.

The puppeteering was surprisingly good. Bravo!

It wasn't as good as I'd hoped, but it also didn't make me want to shower immediately like the actual movie did, so...

I liked that one of them was a banana.

Also whenever I see the Requiem fast-cut dope-doing I'm always bothered by the mistake they made having the pupils dilate, because with opiates it's the other way around. Not that I know anything about that,,,

I am deeply, deeply ashamed of myself, but I was thinking exactly this.

Yeah, I was waiting for that too. They did have the guy chanting "tail to tail" though.

Can't tell if serious, KokuRyu... I'm going with brilliantly sarcastic.
