TOBACCO X FILES REVISITED

Well-supplied with shocking images and creepy special effects, the program stars one Joe Weasel, conniving vice president of R.J. Morris. His mantra: "Tobacco is not addictive." His job: recruit new smokers, chewers, and sniffers (preferably teens)—you KNOW where the old ones went, don’t you? While hooking viewers with a humorous TV takeoff, the video drives home its anti-smoking message with teen testimonials (present and former tobacco users), poignant visits with cancer victims, medical facts beyond dispute (here come the gross-out pictures), and intimate looks at jaw-replacement surgery. Note: careful preview recommended especially for middle-school viewers. Grades 7 –2. Color. 30 minutes. Discover Films. ©1998.
