The Drug Traffic Synopsis
A successful surgeon [Dr. Steve Maison], trying to burn the candle at both ends through keeping up his professional activities and also keeping abreast of his social obligations to please his fiancée, resorts to a drug to stimulate him as he is about to perform an operation. This leads to a shot now and again, and soon he is an addict, giving up his profession and sinking to the slums, until he is thrown into jail. He escapes and returns to his humble abode, burglarizes the hospital where he was formerly an attaché to obtain a supply of drug, and then when he is brought to a realization of the uselessness of it all he puts up a fight to get away from his habit, but although he spends a night of terror fighting off his desire his victory against the drug brings death.
Into the Light Synopsis
A simple country girl, brutally mistreated by her stepfather, awakens first the sympathy, then the love, of The Boy. The Spider, who lusts after The Girl, makes a bargain with the stepfather and takes her to the city where, kept prisoner, she is soon broken in health and spirit. Cast out and near death, she is taken in by The Boy. Following the demise of The Spider, The Boy takes her to church, where he prays, and after many hours she is restored to health.
"The Drug Traffic" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Into the Light" offers its own unique cult appeal.
