Reefer Madness (1938)
Der Schulrektor Dr. Carroll will bei einem Elternabend die Eltern seiner Schüler über die drohende Gefahr der aufkommenden Droge und "Staatsfeind Nr. 1", Marijuana, aufklären. Darum erzählt er ihnen eine schockierende Geschichte über den Drogenverkäufer Jack, der zusammen mit seiner Freundin Mae regelmäßig High School Schüler in seine Wohnung einlädt um ihnen Drogen zu verkaufen. Doch auf Grund des Drogenkonsums geraten die Dinge außer Kontrolle: Ein Mädchen wird bei einer Rangelei erschossen, ein weiteres begeht Selbstmord, ein Jugendlicher fährt fahrlässig einen Mann an, und ein anderer Jugendlicher muss lebenslänglich in eine psychatrische Anstalt.
