The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Even more relevant today than it was in the year of its production, Seduction of the Innocent packs a powerful punch and should be required viewing in all schools and rehabilitative facilities. Produced by Sid Davis with incredible style and grace despite the low-budget constraints, this short film is made intensely moving by the uniform excellence of the performances from a cast of relatively unknown actors. The unidentified actress who plays the young girl who progresses from pot to a woman addicted to "H" gives a stunning performance. Her depiction of the living hell of addiction and the journey from innocent to hardened addict/dealer is haunting and simply unforgettable. The subject matter is shocking and at times unpleasant for those who wish to deny that the drug crazed youth of today have become lost to society and abandoned on the ash heap of moral destruction. Davis was a visionary filmmaker who made a significant contribution to the development of our young people by producing powerful cautionary tales of the sort we see far too little of now, during a time when we need them more than ever.
