Meth Head

Kyle Peoples (Lukas Haas) never wanted to be the man he has become in his 30's – stuck in a dead end job, engaged to a lover who is more successful than he and saddled with a family that doesn't get him at all. When an innocent night of partying leads to a new family of friends and fun, Kyle sees an opportunity to escape from his reality. But Kyle's new friendship with Maia (Necar Zadegan) and Dusty (Blake Berris), and the trio's love of crystal meth eventually cost Kyle everything. As any true user does, Kyle embraces denial, diving headlong into his addiction where life seems pretty awesome. But Kyle's escape becomes his trap, the party is an illusion, the intervention of family, and the warnings of a sympathetic, world weary neighbor are ignored as the crystal meth is slowly killing him. When he finally bottoms out, no longer the kid his father once spoke of with pride, Kyle must choose: life or meth. Former child actor Lukas Haas (Lincoln, Johns, Mars Attacks!) turns in a riveting lead performance, strongly supported by Wilson Cruz as his lover and Candis Cayne as his patient, knowing next door neighbor.
