Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical

2006 · 108 min

A gleefully over-the-top musical satire that turns anti-drug hysteria into a raunchy, cartoonish fever dream full of catchy songs and wild tonal swings.

Tagline: The Feel Good Event of the Year!
Overview: From an ominous Lecturer, a small 1930s middle American community learns of the Harper Affair, in which young Jimmy Harper finds his life of promise turn into a life of debauchery and murder thanks to the new drug menace marijuana. Along the way, he receives help from his girlfriend Mary and Jesus Himself, but always finds himself in the arms of the Reefer Man and the rest of the denizens of the Reefer Den.
