Synopsis
Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical (2006) is a satirical song-and-dance comedy you can watch online on iFILM. It spins off the notorious 1936 propaganda picture that once warned America about the horrors of "the devil's weed," then cranks that hysteria up to eleven and sets it to music.
A sinister Lecturer walks a wholesome town through the cautionary tale of Jimmy Harper: a clean-cut kid takes one puff and tumbles straight into debauchery, hallucinations and murder. Along the way he's visited by his sweetheart Mary, by Jesus Himself, and by the regulars of the reefer den led by the slinky Reefer Man. Kristen Bell, Alan Cumming, Neve Campbell and Ana Gasteyer dive in with obvious glee, every number deliberately pushed into kitsch.
Director Andy Fickman brought the stage musical to screen without softening its mockery of moral panic and government scare campaigns. This isn't a movie about the dangers of drugs — it's a gleeful prank on how such movies get made. It's for fans of pitch-black comedy, musicals with a wink, and anything proudly weird. Stream Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical (2006) online on iFILM.
