The Devil's Weed

Lila Leeds plays a young girl who falls in with a bad crowd after trying marijuana, which leads to crime, sexual promiscuity and even death, such is the grip of the evil demon weed. In a strange case of art imitating life, this film's story parallels the real life experience of its star, who was arrested in a high-profile pot bust with actor Robert Mitchum the year before.
