New Film "Spun" Helps Reveal Underside of Methamphetamine Abuse

As a change from the pretty girl characters that Mena Suvari usually plays, 'Spun' gives viewers a closer look into the evil cycle of methamphetamine addiction.

With the growing rise in crystal meth labs, users, and peddling, the effects of the growing drug is ramped in the nation. This film lets you get into a day in the life of an addict and is a new light from the same Hollywood that brought us the likes of films such as The Salton Sea, and marks a trend in the Los Angeles Productions that pushes to reveal the reality of drug use.

Nearly all the characters in the film take the drug, and Suvari's character is the one in most need of help. The reality that the film brings into addiction will help viewers to see what the cycle of addiction to this and any other rug can do to a person, and how horrid the effects of long term drug abuse can be.

Hopefully this reality will produce an effort among the nation to put more time and money into drug resistance education, treatment and rehabilitation programs for real addicts on our streets. Mena Suvari doubts that anyone who sees her new film will think that it's cool to take crystal meth.
