Sex Madness
Exploitation filmmakers hoped to capitalize on the taboo
subjects of venereal disease, sex before marriage, lesbianism, etc. while
skirting the Motion Picture Production Code of 1930 which forbade a film
from containing such content. Films like this would tour the United States
for years - mostly being shown in rundown, skid row theaters. This film has
been re-edited and re-titled ("Human Wreckage", "They Must Be Told", "Trial
Marriage", "About Trial Marriage") many times to attract the same audience
to film, to take advantage of a taboo subject which may have gotten press
recently or to appease local censors who disapproved of the film's content.
