Better Late Then Never
If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

View MoreIt's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
View MoreI found this movie to be extremely well done. It covers three families as they struggle with a loved one addicted to opiates...they started taking pain killers, then moved onto the less expensive heroin. Most films like this have a lot of newsy talking heads explaining how the viewer should interpret all of it. I liked that it had none of these, just a few black cards with statistics. THe movie is really a fast paced must see, especially for those with kids. Keep them off any prescription pain killers, or at least monitor carefully and throw the rest away (not into the toilet to contaminate our waters!) If you are looking for a good documentary that moves along, and really informs, this is it. It's a gem of a short film.
View MoreI loved this film- although the material is incredibly heavy, it presents the footage in an incredibly graceful and interesting way. The film essentially uncovers a hidden problem that exists in the USA. Moreover, the film is all about the victims of the opioid epidemic as opposed to focusing on experts which really provides the viewer with a candid understanding of what is happening around us. It is a must watch!!! Bravo to the filmmakers-
View MoreWarning: This Drug May Kill You was EXCELLENT!! It should be mandatory viewing for all parents and children of a certain age.I would use words like chilling and scary to describe what I saw. And if you think it can't happen to you or your family you are sadly mistaken.Opioid addiction has become a scourge in this country. It's reaching pandemic proportions and it cuts across all demographics in society. As someone who has lived through multiple replacement surgeries (both hips, my left knee and my right knee later this year) and who has been prescribed Opioid pain killers after these surgeries I know how easy it is to become dependent on them. And as an aging athlete suffering chronic pain it would be so simple to use Opioids as a daily crutch.As the parent of a 12 year old boy I am especially concerned about this horrific problem.Director Perri Peltz dramatically illustrates how families are impacted by this addiction problem.It's scary and touching at the same time and if you are a parent and you aren't moved by seeing this there is something wrong.Time to empty your medicine cabinet.This doc was a great public service and should be seen by everyone.
View MoreWarning: This Drug May Kill You is an absolutely outstanding film. What is happening with prescription medications and how addictive they can become is horrifying. This film could save the life of one of your loved ones - it is a 100% MUST SEE! It is informative, smart, well paced, and brilliantly tells a hard, but "must be heard" story. Perri Peltz did an exceptional job bring this very sad, but real story to life. She is to be congratulated. Amazing work! If you know anyone who takes too may pain killers or is using heroin - help them by seeing this incredible film. You could save a life.
