MARIHUANA

Details

• Release Year: 1936
• Genre: Crime, Drama
• Plot: Weird Orgies - Wild Parties - Unleashed Passions; ; Marihuana chronicles the downward spiral of a group of teenagers from frivolity into the depths of decadence brought on by smoking the 'giggle-weed.' A young girl drowns while skinny-dipping at a beach party. Another teen gets pregnant after a turn with her boyfriend in the sand - both the result of dope smoking. The mother-to-be gives up her baby and becomes a hardened drug dealer, earning fur coats and diamond rings while coldly turning her clientele into drug addicts. With a central message that using marihuana incites 'the user to extreme cruelty and license' and down the path to hard narcotics, this 1936 precursor to Reefer Madness is a cult classic by director/producer and exploitation master Dwain Esper. ; ; **Please be advised that while a great effort is made in restoring these films in their entirety, portions which have been destroyed beyond repair may have been edited out.**
