The Blackout

Abel Ferara has been known to make some of the most boldly spiritual genre films in recent memory. This is not one of them. Though it does have a pseudo-dream like way of saying don't do drugs. Matthew Modine (who must have studied at the James Spader school of where-the-hell-are-they-now) is the big shot actor who is also an alcholic and a junkie. Dennis Hopper plays a Dennis Hopper like character, which is generally welcome, and Ferara does the best he can with the material, but it doesn't amount to much.
