Reefer Madness (aka Tell Your Children) is a 1936 exploitation film revolving around the tragic events that follow when high school students are lured by pushers to try "marihuana": a hit and run accident, manslaughter, suicide, rape, and descent into madness all ensue. The film was directed by Louis Gasnier and starred a cast composed of mostly unknown bit actors. The actor who played Bill Harper never worked in another film. It was originally financed by a church group and made under the title Tell Your Children.
