Another drug education propaganda film from the 60’s. This time the focus is on barbiturates. This 1969 film is about a dumb guy who also narrates this short film. One night whilst partying with his friends, he decides to try some "Barbs". After popping them like tic-tacs all night, he comes down pretty hard. Stagerring home like a drunken sailor on payday. he walks right into a wall and takes a nasty header. This is one night he'll never forget. hey, it's sounds like fun! Remember kids, don't take too many "dolls" unless you want to crash and burn. One of the more light hearted shorts you'll find on the subject. Another case of overindulgence.
