MOVIE
Agitprop auteur Bamlet Lawrence Price produced in "Teenage Devil Dolls" a fine example of 50s scared-straight educational films. "Dolls" is an intricate portrayal of one man's war on some drugs. Of course, back in the 1950's they didn't have as many drugs as we do today. The major pharmaceuticals back in the day were marijuana, various tranqs used in sleeping pills, and good old American heroin. Today we have crack, crank, ice, coke, crystal meth, the list goes on and on. Since there were fewer drugs back then, Price was able to better showcase each one. We follow young Cassandra Leigh into an downward evil drug spiral. Soon she finds herself always seeking that next hit, whoring for money, stealing, lying and all that good stuff that regular people do nowadays just for fun. We get to see her shoot up that junk and get that lovely warm feeling running up her arm and through her entire body. Her eyes glaze over in pure joy. We get to meet people such as Sven Bergman, a fine person of questionable ethnic background, and Jimmy Sanchez, "a mental defect." These are characters that we all know and love. We meet these people everyday and enjoy their company. With such enticing characters showcased in film, and the delicious use of the various drugs lovingly depicted, the viewer is certainly enticed to join this "drug fringe." "Teenage Devil Dolls" is examplary film for druggie recruitment.

Reefer Madness aka Tell Your Children is the 1936 prototype for the scared-straight-off-drugs film. A brother and sister each puff on a few joints, and the next thing you know they're accidentally members of a crime ring accidentally killing people. Everyone dies and/or goes to jail.


Hemp for Victory. During World War II, we were in a great crisis. The Nip war machine had cut off the supply of hemp to the U.S. war machine. To correct the problem, the United States Department of Agriculture this important 14-minute film to persuade patriotic farmers to grow the wacky weed and/or its less potent cousin. Hemp for mooring ships! Hemp for towlines! Hemp for any number of naval uses, both at ship and at sea! Hemp for Industry! Hemp for the Dead! Hemp for . . . VICTORY!


Easy Rider is Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper's tour de force, an unabashedly pro-drug, pro-America bit of propaganda. As our two protagonists travel across the country in search of the American Dream and a good high, the careful viewer may be able to learn about the mind-expanding benefits of certain "illicit" drugs.


The Partnership for a Drug-Free America is today's number-one source for filmed anti-drug propaganda. From smashed eggs to celebs working off community service, these short films are beamed into the cortex of the average American several times a day. Depicted here is Carroll O'Connor (NOTE: not GK), whose son was killed when he and his cocaine habit got mixed up with the kind of unsavory dealers Prohibition creates. The private funds from this long-running public-private "Partnership" come from tobacco companies, breweries, and large pharmaceutical conglomerates. None of whom, of course, have any interest in keeping marijuana (where some 80% of the action in the War on Some Drugs is) illegal.
