JUST DO IT: Death Drug, featuring Miami Vice's Tubbs!

We pity the fool who doesn't go to this Friday's Soul Food Cinema courtesy of the fine folks at Reel Black. This month's offering is Death Drug, featuring Phillip Michael Thomas, aka Tubbs from Miami Vice as a musician addicted to PCP. Check out his supermarket drug freakout. "Don't you see it! Don't you see it!"

Reel Black's going old school and playing the movie on the 1986 VHS re-release, with an intro by Tubbs AND a break in the middle of the movie for the music video of Thomas' single "Just the Way I Planned It." Check out the lasers!

But that ain't all. Accompanying the classic Death Drug is Mr. T's anti-drug promo video Be Somebody or Be Somebody's Fool. Go or Clubber Lang will fuck you up and tell you not to do drugs.
