The Cocaine Fiends

Summary: Just What Mom Told You Would Happen...
Review: COCAINE FIENDS concerns a guy named Eddie and his hopeless search for his "drugged-out" sister Jane (Lois January). Jane became a shriveled up sleaze-bucket after being introduced to cocaine by a dope-peddler named Nick (Noel Madison). Along the way, Eddie himself is given cocaine by a girl he meets, sending him deep into the bowels of depravity! Watch and shudder! Extra points for spotting the rodent wallpaper in the notorious "Dead Rat Cafe"! Thankfully, it's only about an hour long...

Summary: Not worth it
Review: i was told this movie was great, very humorous, but it wasn't. there were a couple parts that were funny, but the quality is terrible (even for a movie made in 1935). it hasn't been cleaned up or repaired at all and it's very, very hard to see. it's not worth the money in the slightest.

Summary: The endless War on Drugs
Review: There are certain people who love and collect these government sponsored movies from the 1930's. 'Reefer Madness' is the most famous of these ridiculous pictires, but there are other very good ones, Cocaine Fiends is one of them. All the plots in these movies are the same. A good person (usually a young female) is steered off the wayward path by a slick talking hustler with drugs to sell.

In Cocaine Fiends a young girl who runs a restaurant with her mother makes the mistake of hiding a 'dope peddler' from federal agents after a car chase. He offers her some 'headache powder' after the coast is clear. Next thing you know he's telling her she needs to be in the big city and can be in a show. Well her life goes pretty much downhill from there after she becomes a full blown cokehead.

These films are enjoyable for me. I find it odd how the 'Good ol' days' and 'Those Simple Times of Yesteryear', were as dangerous and decadant as today.
