In honor of this literal high holiday, here are nine films we think you should binge.
Friday
This movie may have celebrated its 20th anniversary recently, but it hasn’t aged a bit.
Half Baked
They’re not drug dealers; they’re fund raisers.
Pineapple Express
The entire cast is incredible, but Danny McBride steals the show.
Reefer Madness
Sure, it was meant of a cautionary tale when it was released in 1936, but it’s hard to watch this classic now without laughing histerically.
Dazed and Confused
We have three words to describe this iconic Richard Linklater film: Alright, alright, alright.
Up In Smoke
If someone writes a list about stoner movies, and a Cheech and Chong film isn’t on the list, does the list even exist? The answer is “no.”
Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle
Obviously John Cho and Kal Penn deliver outstanding comedic performances, but is there a better actor playing himself cameo than Neil Patrick Harris as “Neil Patrick Harris?”
How High
Magic weed gets Method Man and Redman accepted to Harvard. Hilarity ensues and gives new meaning to the phrase “higher learning.”
The Big Lebowski
In addition to lighting up, we suggest you fix yourself a White Russian (or two or four) as well.
