Movie Reviews of Reefer MadnessMovie Review: This flick's a riot Summary: 5 Stars
If anything, this movie demonstrates that the War on Drugs goes way back before Nancy Reagans Just Say No campaign. Watch 1930s era police and federal agents make drug busts and incinerate thousands of dollars worth of drugs. But we all know that for every pound of weed seized by the U.S. Government, a thousand pounds is enjoyed by decent law abiding pot heads. Nothing has changed in seventy years.The movie starts out with a scrolling written warning of the perils of the demon-weed. It could happen to you, you.or YOU! Then a preachy, holier than thou high school principle is addressing parents of the student body. He begins to tell a story that happened right here in our neighborhood. Our story unfolds and lo and behold, decent, clean-cut, American youth succumb to the evils of Mariuhana. Watch a decent youth smoke a joint in his car, then run down an old man in the street. He doesnt even slow down after he clobbers the guy. Remember, this is the 30s cars weigh half a ton and are made of steel. And watch the crazed piano player at the soda stand takes a smoke break. He looks like an insane derelict as he smokes a joint in the closet. Anyway, May and her drug-dealer boyfriend lure young kids into their house and offer cigarettes to get them high and hooked. Of course the evil drug causes insanity, jealousy, rage, horniness, and nervousness. A girl gets shot, the drug dealer gets beaten to death, and his girlfriend launches herself out a window after she confesses. Of course everybodys favorite is the dude who needs to go to the loony bin for the criminally insane. He is so enslaved to demon weed that he no longer has a brain of his own. This film is hilarious. How sad it is to think how much money and effort has gone into the losing battle of fighting drugs.
