A
look at the harmful effects of Methamphetamine.
| |
This comprehensive
look at Crank (also called Methamphetamine, Meth or Crystal Meth) paints the whole picture. Compelling interviews and
stories from law enforcement, emergency medical workers, and users, dramatically
illustrate the lethal potential of this drug.
The program depicts the dangers of meth,
including its psychoactive and physical properties. The lost lives and permanent physical
damage associated with meth also illustrate that this substance is nothing to be fooled
with. |

"...as the program points out, because
young people feel invincible, this is one of the fastest growing drugs in use today. This
important video features the testimony of police, physicians and users themselves to
convince parents and teenagers to avoid crank. Highly recommended."

"...This hard-hitting program
introduces the damaging, long-lasting psychological and physical effects of crank through
reenactment footage and... shots of police officers... legal professionals, physicians,
and recovering addicts. ...presents facts and information to alert viewers to the menace
of this deadly drug." -

"...The warnings (in the video) are clear, and you would hope
that kids or adults who even think of taking
crank would hesitate. The video achieves two
purposes, we believe. It educates as to the
dangers and results, and secondly (for
police and other first responders) it trains
them to be medically ready for the worst."

"My substance abuse group reviewed this
film, and it's a winner. This video is 'hard ball' and puts meth in proper
perspective..."

"The best informational presentation
that I have seen. Our agency will use it as part of our education, pre-treatment, parent
treatment, and post treatment groups... (Our women in recovery) had no idea of the damage
they were causing themselves. The reality of the film has given them the resolve to stay
clean... The film was well paced; the information used was honest and direct and not
fabricated with the intent to scare people straight... The information on how 'cooks' have
higher cancer rates was not known to us."
