Description
A typical poster for this 50's youth culture exploitation feature. The header screams "..a jet propelled gang.... out for fast kicks". Though the 1950's were a period of great prosperity in America, American audiences developed a taste for such films which sought to expose the threat of anarchic youth behaviour. Often the perils of drugs & promiscuous sex would be put in the spotlight, though it is likely that the moral worthiness of these films, played second fiddle to commercial considerations: "sex & violence" always sell!  This poster is a Style-B variant & has been Linen-backed.
