A young rock star decides he wants to go from leading the charts to leading the world. At the age of 24 he’s elected president and leads the country’s youth to mobilize against anyone over the age of 30., A millionaire rock star/drug pusher is elected President after the voting age is lowered to 14., A rock star decides he’d rather rule the free world than just sell records in this ambitious fusion of political satire and teen exploitation. Teenage rebel Max Flatow (Christopher Jones) has grown tired of life in suburbia with his domineering mother (Shelley Winters) and weak-willed father (Bert Freed), and, having saved up 800 dollars he earned by selling home-brewed LSD to his schoolmates, he blows up the family car with a makeshift bomb and strikes out on his own. A few years later, Max has adopted the name Max Frost, and is one of the world’s biggest rock stars, selling millions of records and earning a fortune from concert appearances and music publishing. Max has learned firsthand about the buying power of America’s youth, and when Sen. John Fergis (Hal Holbrook) asks Max to appear at a “youth rally” to mobilize younger voters, he realizes the kids could also sway an election if they wanted. At Fergis’ rally, Max debuts a new song, “Fourteen or Fight,” which demands the voting age be reduced to 14; the youth respond by rising up in support of Max’s demands, reducing many American cities to a standstill. As political leaders bow to public pressure, the age of suffrage is reduced to 15, but rather than choosing candidates to support, Max decides it’s time he and his inner circle took control. After Max doses Washington, D.C.’s water supply with LSD, congress votes to make any registered voter eligible to hold federal office, and before long Max Frost has become president of the United States. Once in office, Max unveils a bold plan to once and for all do something about people over 30 — including his parents. Wild in the Streets features an early screen appearance from Richard Pryor as drummer and political activist Stanley X, while media personalities Dick Clark, Walter Winchell, Army Archerd, and Melvin Belli portray themselves. Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil wrote the songs for fictional rockers “Max Frost and the Troopers,” including the hit single “The Shape of Things to Come.”
