Question: High levels of radon was foun in my home in Utah.  Are there vapor barriers that stop the radon from entering my home? I understand that the term vapor barrier is a type of plastic sheeting that is designed for crawlspaces, right?

YES, vapor barrier, liner, film are all words that are interchangeable with what they are made from which is polyethylene that is made into flexible plastic sheeting. It is specially designed to do a specific job, and thus the term "plastic sheeting" gets called vapor barriers, etc.
