TOMORROW'S CHILDREN / CHILD BRIDE BLU-RAY

Forbidden Fruit: The Golden Age of the Exploitation Picture Volume 5 - TOMORROW'S CHILDREN and CHILD BRIDE!

      Are You Fit to Be a Parent? Exploitation films of the 1930s didn't only warn citizens of the dangers of drugs and venereal disease. The genre brazenly confronted a wide array of distasteful issues, as evidenced in this double feature of two of the most bizarre entries in the exploitation canon TOMORROW'S CHILDREN is an exposé of eugenics, in which a young woman (DIANE SINCLAIR) from a family of genetic degenerates is ordered by the court to be sterilized. Notorious even by today's standards, CHILD BRIDE follows a crusading schoolteacher (DIANA DURRELL) as she tries to halt the practice of child marriage in a backwoods community, before it claims another innocent victim (SHIRLEY MILLS). These two essential roadshow rarities are presented in definitive editions, meticulously restored from original 35mm film prints from the Something Weird Video archive.
