- Synopsis
- A campy cult favorite first released in 1938 as a propaganda film meant to scare America's youth away from drugs. In this quintessential classic, innocent teens partake of the “demon weed” to find that one puff plunges them into a hilarious web of murder, sex, lunacy and jazz music. This cautionary tale is the height of camp among today's high school and college crowds. You may think you've experienced this mind-altering “hit” before, but you've never seen it like this- in color for the first time. Our DVD includes both color and black-and-white versions and audio commentary by Mike Nelson of Mystery Science Theater.
