Inspired by the original 1936 film of the same name, this raucous musical comedy takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the hysteria caused when clean-cut kids fall prey to marijuana, leading them on a hysterical downward spiral filled with evil jazz music, sex and violence. You won't be able to resist the spoofy fun of Reefer Madness. The addictive and clever musical numbers range from big Broadway-style showstoppers to swing tunes like "Down at the Ol' Five and Dime" and the Vegas-style "Listen to Jesus, Jimmy," featuring J.C. Himself leading a chorus of showgirl angels.
T'was not so long ago, my friends, that being a nerd and nerd culture were not desirable things to admit that you were or were a part of. Hard to fathom, I know. The world was run by stupid, sexy jocks and their stuck up, easy, cheerleader girlfriends. We take for granted those that came before us and fought the goo...d fight for nerd independence - Lewis, Gilbert, Poindexter and Booger. Just in time for back to school, Movie Mondays invites you to come celebrate these forefathers of the nerd domination we all enjoy today, with Revenge of the Nerds!
