synopsis

We’ve warned you before and we’ll warn you again: Drugs are Bad! Need proof? Check out this Volume of Classroom Scare Films and just say no! Drug Abuse: The Chemical Tomb (color): Hippies dance barefoot while bongs and sitars blare on the soundtrack, and normal American youth are turned into deranged, chemically fueled addicts. Goof Balls and Tea (color): Mini-version of the classic Police-Science drug feature The Narcotics Story (also available from Something Weird Video) in which enthusiastic ART GILMORE narrates the sordid story of a sweet young bobby soxer in Small Town U.S.A. who ends up as a Hooker in Heroin Hell. Drugs: Use or Abuse (color): Level-headed discussion of the drug problem -- a rarity in this genre -- still has enough funk-fueled Sixties weirdness to jump start any dying party and make the self-respecting viewer run for his bong. Narcotics and Kids (color): Jaw-dropping classroom terror film featuring two high haired Sixties-style female ex-junkies who lecture a bunch of kids and answer their dumb-ass questions: "Some people say that taking drugs isn’t any worse than drinking, like, five martinis. Is that right?" The Seekers (color): Classic New-York absurdity follows two goofy-looking former drug abusers chatting in a variety of locations with pretentious college kids who apparently love the sound of their own voice. -- Scary Ed
