Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

lor_ Stuck with a decidedly creepy host, THE ROAD OF HEALTH is an obvious and boring sex education film made by the government for British public conception. It barely qualifies as camp so many decades later.End credit goes to Gaumont British Instruction, so this baby was likely seen by either students or fans attending films from the major distributor Gaumont.The tedious lecture on V.D., with statistics about syphilis and gonorrhea trotted out plays more like a Michael Palin spoof than a real movie, but real it assuredly is. Some cartoon segments credited to R. Jeffyres are cheaply and poorly done.The usual scare tactics of presenting visuals of patients in the terminal stages of syphilis are not present, rendering the film lame and probably ineffective in its day. Exploitation fans dote on that stuff but would likely snooze through this one.The condescending and childish nature of the lecture recited here is embarrassing.
