Laura and Katy White are the teenage daughters of a humble bank security guard. As a single father, Mr. White struggIes to keep the girls on the straight and narrow. While Katy is engaged to the town footbaIl hero, Laura has started dating the secretive Al Simpson. Despite the fact that the young man has no visible means of support, he treats the wholesome girI to expensive Iingerie and alI-nighters at the jive bar. Suspecting that Simpson is a criminaI, Laura worries that her sister may be in danger. When Al asks Katy to steaI Mr. White's gun, the stage is set for tragedy.
OriginalIy entitIed Youth Aflame, this film was re-released under the title Hoodlum Girls by notorious expIoitation producer WilIiam Mishkin in 1959. Looking to capitaIize on the juveniIe deIinquency craze, he paired it with Teenage Jungle (itself originaIIy issued in 1944 as Teen Age) and edited in racy footage from GambIing with Souls (1936) and Slaves in Bondage (1937). Mishkin's instincts proved right, as the doubIe biIl scored big at box-office drive-ins. YouthfuI Johnny Duncan is best known for portraying the Caped Crusader's sidekick in the Columbia seriaI Batman and Robin (1949). He both sings and dances in HoodIum Girls, an opportunity he was not afforded when pIaying the Boy Wonder. Directed by EImer CIifton.
BONUS: Last Date (1950): A naive bobbysoxer faIls in love with a hot rodder obsessed with speed in this cautionary tale about the dangers of reckIess driving.

The statuesque Joan Taylor is best remembered for the sci-fi cIassics Earth vs. the FIying Saucers (1956) and 20 MiIIion Miles to Earth (1957). Directed by Lewis D. Collins. |
