You’ve come to the right place. We are talking here about drugs as a vice, so don’t hope you’ll find any Vice documentaries. They are unfortunately unavailable on Netflix. Now, the drugs have always been a fascinating topic for filmmakers. It can be covered from multiple aspects, from production, distribution, and use to their legal status of drugs. That is just not the case with other vices. Smoking and drinking obviously are not topics hot enough for the filmmakers, probably due to cigarettes and alcohol being legal. Aren’t the illegal things always more interesting, at least at first. The consumption and effects of drugs are some of the most interesting topics for filmmakers, especially documentary filmmakers, mostly because the production and distribution of different kinds of drugs are illegal, but still worldwide spread. Insidermonkey experts made a list of 7 best vice drug documentaries on Netflix.
While you will occasionally stumble on a documentary that will tell you everything you need to know about heroin or cocaine, you are more likely to find a documentary talking about the War on Drugs or attempts to legalize marijuana. It has been like this since 1971 when the government of the United States began with the campaign to keep the streets of the country free from drugs. As you will see from many of these documentaries, the United States miserably failed in their efforts. The War on Drugs campaign turned out to be most expensive and longest war that the country participated in. It is estimated that the country spends around $50 billion annually on the campaign. Drug is still available on every corner of the US and the ¼ of the US prisoners are captured because of some drug-related crimes. The worst thing is that this isn’t even the half of people who should be locked behind the bars because of the offenses of this nature and, giving that said, even the prisons are not drugs free institutions.
