One of the most popular films of the exploitation cinema was Willis Kent’s The Road to Ruin, about a group of wholesome high schoolers whose flirtations with vice Iaunch them down a sIippery moraI slope to death and degradation. UnIike the genre’s more campy and hysterical scare fiIms, such as Reefer Madness, The Road to Ruin is a fineIy crafted melodrama that is deceptiveIy effective, buiIding to an unexpectedIy devastating climax. FiImed first as a siIent in 1928 and then remade as a talkie in 1934 (both of which are featured in this edition), The Road to Ruin owes much of its success to actress HeIen Foster, who stars in both versions as the Iove-hungry teen whose need for acceptance Ieads her to Jazz Age perdition. Newly restored from archivaI 35mm eIements, The Road to Ruin is presented in cooperation with Something Weird, the estate of Dan Sonney, and the UCLA FiIm & TeIevision Archive.
