Before Zach Galligan starred in the two best movies ever made in the history of cinema, battling mischievous green monsters-------he had to deal with something far more dangerous and devastating-----VD!
The fact is that Gremlins is fictitious, those party animal monsters don't exist in real life----but gonorrhea is very real!!!
In this 1982 TV special, Galligan plays a teen whose girlfriend gets the clap----and then unfortunately infects him. I had actually never heard of this program until June 14, 1990 -----(coincidentally the day before Gremlins 2 was to open nationwide lol), when I was in 8th grade and my sex education teacher, Ms. Kris Thompson, put this film on for the class.
I had not seen it since then, and just recently I was lucky to find a copy of the program, because it is nearly impossible to find these days!
Here is the cautionary tale for everyone to see now for your viewing pleasure...
