Assassin of Youth
Edited on Sun Aug-22-10 08:57 PM by undeterred
"1937, Drama
A reporter investigates the terrifying marijuana epidemic that is corrupting the sweet, naive teens of a small town."

This movie is on the retro channel in an hour!

Wikipedia: Assassin of Youth (1937) is an exploitation film directed by Elmer Clifton. It is a pre-WWII movie about the supposed ill effects of cannabis. The movie is often considered a clone of the much more famous Reefer Madness (sharing cast member Dorothy Short). The thriller reflects perfectly the anti-drug propaganda of its time.

Wow, I never even heard of an 'exploitation' film.
