I just watched it, and I really liked it, at first I thought it was going to be similar to Trainspotting, but wow I was wrong. If you haven't watched it I would recommend it, although I thought it had a very creepy vibe to it. The refrigerator parts really freaked me out at first.

Great movie, the parts with his arm though made me cringe.

If you liked that movie, you should check out spun if you haven't seen it.

I didn't catch how he got that, or was that just an infection from injecting?

I liked train spotting more than requiem for a dream, requiem was too weird for me.

+1 for trainspotting. Both movies were pretty intense, but i just enjoyed watching trainspotting while i couldn't really enjoy requiem. Was just too much

I saw Requiem in 2001, my lab partner had just got it and wanted to watch it after we finished our work. I hate needles, had a bad hospital experience as a kid. I didn't know what the movie was about when we started watching it, but it's the only movie that's made me sick to my stomach. Trainspotting was harsh, but didn't have as bad an effect on me.

I'm ok with needles.. but the kind they got now in the auto blood draw capsules during the yearly checkups is HUGE .. it's like at least 1-2 mm..

That was pretty scary..

I actually had to look away when the nurse stuck me with it..

As far as heroin goes.. sigh... it's just so much awesome.. literally, that's what it is.. awesomeness in a vile...

If only Humans were designed for such levels of awesome without prematurely croaking.

Whenever I watch that movie, the soundtrack haunts me for the next 2-3 days.

As a very drug liberal person, requiem for a dream is one of the best movies Ive seen. One who show as somewhat twisted yet very interesting life of a drug users (turned abuser). That and Matrix I think would be my favorite movies

If you want more "druggy" and way WAY more strange I suggest "enter the void".

This.

It's one of the all time best worst movies. I wouldn't want to watch it again. Trainspotting on the other hand is great all around, even the soundtrack is worthy of keeping in my library.

It is definitely worth watching once. Just once.

My feelings exactly. Once was enough. However, I would recommend it for others, depending on the person. I feel the same about Black Swan, also by Aronofsky.

Yeah, I got a bit squeamish when he injected the needle into the infected vein.

Yea that music is creepy, and how they made the actors during the game show segments all bugg-eyed.. freaks me out.

It's pretty overrated. If you want to see a good Aronofsky flick watch Pi. If you want to see a movie that really captures the intensity of the underbelly of society, watch KIDS.

I will say, everything I read about it and saw about it, said that it was mentally scarring, and truly over hyped it and described it to be very mind scarring. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be.

I just watched KIDS, and in my opinion, it wasn't a very good movie, the movie could have been 30 minutes long with the same amount of detail and story.

It's "grittier" than Requim though. No, neither a very good.

Hi, I heard about this movie "Requiem for a Dream". It is a psychological film. It is considered drama and in some ways horrifying. I think, it would be better only for adults and not recommendable for children.

Yeah, and the low budget of KIDS is very obvious IMO.
