I Drink Your Blood

After consuming rabies-infected meat pies, an LSD-addicted hippie cult goes on a vicious murdering rampage! 

DVD from Amazon

Slaughter Hotel

This Italian exploitation horror cult classic stars a terminally creepy doctor (Klaus Kinski) at an asylum for suicidal and disturbed women. There's a team of strange doctors, unprofessional nurses and even a hunky gardener at these ladies' service to help them recover. In classic Giallo form director Fernando Di Leo introduces a mad-raving murderer, typically dressed in black and using the institution's old-fashioned armory decoration as slashing tools. Margaret Lee and Rosalba Neri are among the frequently unclothed cast, and there are decapitations, crossbow bolts in the eye, and some fairly explicit sex. This gory slasher flick with more than its fair share of nudity is a Euro-grindhouse gem.

Tie-Ins: One Step Beyond

One Step Beyond was anthology show that ran from 1959 to 1961, supposed recreations of clearly non-existent cases of the paranormal.  Psychic predictions were a mainstay.  Lightweight and clearly hokum, but with some charm if you're in the right mood.

There were two collections and a novel based on episodes:

1959: One Step Beyond: Supernatural Stories from American T.V. retold by Lenore Bredeson
1960: More from One Step Beyond retold by Lenore Bredeson
1964: The World Grabbers by Paul W. Fairman - "A Dramatic, Suspenseful Novel Inspired By The Popular TV Program: ONE STEP BEYOND"
