Reefer Madness

A high camp spin on the 1936 propaganda film of the same name, Reefer Madness turns moral panic into musical mayhem. When a pair of cleancut teens fall into the clutches of the reefer den, their world erupts into wild jazz, overthetop temptation, and hilariously exaggerated danger; all of which is played for sharp, satirical laughs. Packed with showstopping numbers, outrageous characters, and highenergy spectacle, this cultclassic is a riotous night out you won’t want to miss. Content Notice: Strong drug themes, exaggerated violence, sexual situations, implied nudity, and mild to moderate profanity. These themes are presented in a highly stylized, spoof-like manner rather than being entirely realistic.
