CANNIBAL MAN
A solid, if pretentious, 1971 psycho thriller from Spain
CANNIBAL GIRLS
So-bad-it’s-rotten comedy-horror from Canada, notable only for the fact that it was an early effort by director Ivan Reitman
THE CANDY SNATCHERS
I caught up with this 1973 obscurity fairly recently, but it immediately jumped to the top of my grindhouse fave list
A WOMAN POSSESSED

THE WATER SPIDER
This oddity, hailing from early 1970s France, is the only movie about a tiny water spider transforming into a full-sized woman that I know of
WAKE IN FRIGHT

MY FRIENDS NEED KILLING
A cheap, tawdry and, ultimately, extremely powerful exploitation film from the seventies
MOSQUITO
