Reefer Madness | comment |
Originally called Tell Your Children, this anti-marihuana film from 1936 was directed by Louis Gasnier, and originally financed by a concerned church group and intended for parents, but was picked up by producer Dwain Esper, who recut it as an Exploitation Film. Today, it's in the public domain and considered So Bad, It's Good, and has even inspired a 1998 musical satire, which itself was adapted into a well-received TV special.As the film is in the public domain in the United States, freely witness the frightful toll of the new drug menace which is sweeping America on the Internet Archive. Don't do drugs, kids! | |

Reefer Madness / int_23330a99 | comment |
Immediate Self-Contradiction: In his closing statements at Bill's trial, the prosecutor states that "we are not interested in 'motive' so much as the act [of murder] itself!" He then immediately — in fact, his very next sentence — launches into an elaborate hypothesis concerning Bill's motive (to cover up an 'affair' with Blanche). There's also the fact that the prosecution expends quite some effort in establishing Bill's drug use, but the elaborate hypothesis never even mentions it. | |

Ax-Crazy: When going over the government files on "marihuana," they talk about a teenager who became addicted to the drug and killed his family with an ax for some reason. It might have been an allusion to an actual person who was believed to have murdered his family while stoned (he was schizophrenic). | |

Even Evil Has Standards: Mae the drug moll doesn't like selling pot to teenagers, a qualm her partner Jack doesn't share. Ralph, whose near-rape of Mary leads to her death, is the only one of the gang who shows any remorse that Bill is convicted of her murder. Though it is implied that his attitude is primarily a side effect of marihuana usage. Pete, another member of the gang, tells the unnamed boss he draws the line selling it to kids. | |

The Aggressive Drug Dealer | |
Reefer Madness / int_566a3389 | comment |
The Aggressive Drug Dealer: Jack won't hesitate to sell pot to whomever he can set his sights on. Blanche also qualifies, even if she's not an actual dealer; at one point, she uses Reverse Psychology to goad Bill into trying a joint. That said, nobody in the movie is ever shown exchanging actual money for pot, instead choosing to just give it away, so calling them "dealers" isn't really that accurate. | |

Smoking Is Cool | |
Reefer Madness / int_596f675a | comment |
Smoking Is Cool: Averted. This was one of the first attempts (if not the first) at making smoking look uncool, and viewers might have a hard time believing they didn't set the studio on fire... Using "joints" which look exactly like factory-produced cigarettes is a contributing factor. On the other hand, it's notable that the two leads, Bill and Mary, are depicted as incredibly square even for 1930s standards — "Gooooosh, hot chocolate!" — and yet are implied to smoke (regular tobacco) even before they get introduced to pot. The message is slightly warped, however, when we see an actual cigarette ad in the background, probably not for purposes of dramatic irony so much as the use of unaltered locations as sets. | |

The Stoner | |
Reefer Madness / int_6db06839 | comment |
The Stoner: Averted — No one in this movie behaves like a real-life stoner. Whatever they're smoking is some kind of powerful stimulant; it certainly isn't pot. In fact, the only side effect realistically depicted was the drug pusher's constant eating, which is funny considering that they list a fair number of accurate symptoms in the opening crawl. | |

Drugs Are Bad | |
Reefer Madness / int_de7b7cbf | comment |
Drugs Are Bad: Well, duh. Or at least, that's what it tries to say. Weed bad, but tobacco and alcohol are A-OK! | |

Stern Old Judge | |
Reefer Madness / int_f1d692eb | comment |
Stern Old Judge: Of the gruff older white man sort, who, coincidentally, is played by the same actor who appeared as a judge in The Three Stooges' Disorder in the Court later that same year. | |

Artistic License – Physics | |
Reefer Madness / int_fc225bec | comment |
Artistic License – Physics: When Jack's gun goes off, it is more or less pointed at the floor; meanwhile Mary is standing (or sitting) upright near the couch and facing the commotion. Somehow the bullet arcs up through the air and loops around to catch Mary in the center of her back. | |
