Beyond the Door (1975), an Italian-American co-production that manages to copy two movies: The Exorcist and Rosemary's Baby. The opening prologue where the disembodied voice of the devil introduces the movie should indicate that this isn't meant to be a serious movie. But it's a lot of fun to watch, especially if you dig Italian-made clones of popular American movies like me.
Fun fact: One of the recurring lines in this movie, "Who are you?" is also an English translation of BTD's original Italian title, Chi Sei? Posts: 122 | From: Beverly, MA | Registered: Feb 2011 | Site Updates: 0

Invasion of the Bodysnatchers 1978. I had never seen this one before and was quite good. Those high pitch squeals are freaky as.

Toolbox Murders...I didn't know it was supposed to be based on actual events. It was okay. I liked the remake better.

Slithis (1978), a fun late-'70s monster mash with a '50s style monster terrorizing people in Venice, California. The creature looks very good and gets a fair amount of screen time. The cast is all unknowns who never advanced beyond supporting roles and bit parts in other movies.
Despite the PG rating, Slithis has some gory throat rippings, a bit of topless nudity, and the mutilated remains of victims of the beast. Remember, this was before when PG-rated movies could get away with more graphic content. Slithis would easily get an R today, although it would be more of a "soft" R than a "hard" R.

The Amityville Horror 1979.Newlyweds move into a house where a murder was committed, and experience strange manifestations which drive them away. Stars Margot "Lois Lane" Kidder, Josh Brolin and Rod Steiger. This is seriously frightening, but gets a poor rating on IMDB. I would give it 7/10.

Salems Lot. David Soul and James Mason star. Stephen King story of vampires in a small town. Scared me as a child but quite tame now. Still worth a look.

Lust For A Vampire (1971). Classic Hammer fayre, with the seemingly ever present Ralph Bates and the usual smattering of nubile lovelies, none of whom appear capable of understanding the instruction "don't go into the spooky castle on the hill"...

You know, Paul, a lot of folks really hate "Lust for a Vampire" with its fairly weak script, bad pop song "Strange Love" on the soundtrack, and the non-acting of Yutte Stensgaard, but I kind of like it. Of the films in the Carmilla/Karnstein triology, "The Vampire Lovers" is a masterpiece, "Lust for a Vampire" (on US TV as "To Love a Vampire," apparently a less provocative title) is pretty underrated, and "Twins of Evil," to me at least, is quite overrated. I really like comedian Steve Coogan's BBC series "Dr. Horrible's House of Horrible," where he did a very funny, spot on spoof of the Hammer Carmilla/Karnstein series called "Lesbian Vampires of Lust." It looked just like "Lust for a Vampire"--creepy woods, spooky castle on the hill, vampire babes falling out of their nightgowns...
