Raffine mentioned making a list of horror movies infested with hippies in the "Name That Movie-Pictures" thread, I thought I would start this thread for him. Not looking for the Top 100, just a list of horror movies with hippies, good or bad. (That goes for the hippies AND the movies.)
So far we have:
BOY WHO CRIED WEREWOLF
WEREWOLF OF WOODSTOCK
DEATH MASTER
I DRINK YOUR BLOOD
FRIDAY THE 13TH, PART 3--IN 3D (stoner/hippies types anyway)
This should be a breeze for the folks who populate this forum.
And.......................GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How about Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things?
Far out! I can dig it in a happenin' way.
Got another groovy one:
SIMON, KING OF THE WITCHES
(http://www.movieposter.com/posters/archive/main/41/MPW-20515)
To be honest, I've never seen a horror movie with hippies in it but seen a few hippie movies which were extremely horrible. Might have to look for some of these titles.
"The Tripper"
It dosn't get more horrorfying then real life....
MANSON (1971)
What's truly scary is that to a dissillusioned 16 year old outcast kid high on acid...Charlie's psycho babble made sense...much like Hitler's babble made sense to a disillusioned Germany during the 1930's.

Oh! BLUE SUNSHINE! (1976)
Hippies who dropped acid during the sixties later have bad,BAD flashbacks...they go bald and psycho! Groovy,baby!
Haha! A hippies nightmare....no peace or love or long beautiful hair!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bC23RzhrH5Q
This was directed by the same man who gave us the classick SQUIRM...Jeff Liebeman! So it's guarrenteed quality veiwing! :teddyr:
RC, here's one we both forgot:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFWea3Eu97E
THE CAR vs. Hippy playing a French Horn.
Guess who wins . . ? :teddyr:
The Flesh Eaters has a hippie in it. Frankenfish has a nudist/stoner couple that are borderline hippies.

Ha! YES! I Not only have the movie...I have the paperback noveliztion of the movie!
Oh! Howsabout the Jebus freak hippie chick in BLOODFREAK?
Oh! DRACULA AD 1972!
"He's ready to freak you out...right out of this world!" :buggedout:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgHJXWndJVw
I saw this movie back in the day at the Strand...I was about ten or eleven. Me and my brother Mike were in the balcony throwing popcorn at the girls down on the floor! :smile:
I completely forgot about "Blood Freak". Man, I am getting old.
LET'S SCARE JESSICA TO DEATH has a hippy chick slinkin' 'round the old house, and the protagonist is hippy-dippy, and I mean that with Love. :smile:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mi8Sb9BeJk
I don't really consider it a horror movie although it's categorized as one in most places, but I think it is a hippy movie - Season of the Witch? Gosh I hated that movie! It made me feel like I was going through menopause at 25!
The protagonist in "I Spit on Your Grave" is definitely of the granola persuasion --
"Werewolf of Woodstock": My wife constantly talks about this film, supposedly one of the very first films shot entirely on the brand-new format of video tape, supposedly even before Frank Zappa shot "200 Motels" on tape -- Has anyone here actually seen it?
Last I looked, there weren't even copies of it for sale on E-Bay. Very very few people have even heard of it, much less have a copy. Even Video Station in Boulder, Colorado, with 50,000 plus titles, doesn't have it.

I actually saw WEREWOLF OF WOODSTOCK when it premiered on ABC - I'm thinking it was on one of their late night programs and not during prime time. It's pretty funny - a farmer who lives near the site of Woodstock gets struck by lightning and so naturally loud rock n roll music makes him turn into a blood-thirsty werewolf who likes to eat hippies.
Produced by Dick Clark.

Shocking Videos has it. Here's their surprisingly profanity-free description:
THE WEREWOLF OF WOODSTOCK (75) In the aftermath of the Woodstock Festival a disgruntled blue collar type (played by Tige Andrews, Capt. Greer from The Mod Squad) goes looking for leftover hippies during a lightning storm. He gets struck by a stray bolt while screaming "Freaks! Miserable freaks!" and is transformed into, you guessed it, The Werewolf of Woodstock. Executive produced by Dick Clark for ABC's Wide World of Entertainment and co-starring "big name" celebs like Michael Parks (Then Came Bronson), Andrew Stevens (Massacre at Central High), and Meredith McCrae (Petticoat Junction) this stupefyingly BAD TV-movie looks like it was staged and shot with all the care and craftsmanship of a Mexican soap opera! Gives new meaning to the term "howler." http://www.revengeismydestiny.com/cult_movies_made_for_tv.html (http://www.revengeismydestiny.com/cult_movies_made_for_tv.html)
Shocking Video has lots of great stuff, by the way.
I myself have ordered from them several times. :thumbup:

Cool! Castle of Frankenstein was a great magazine. Slightly more "serious" than FM.
I watched the clip I posted and I had forgotten about the werewolf driving around in that groovy red dune buggy.
I wish I had a groovy red dune buggy.
Here's a few more obscure Hippie horrors...
Roger Corman's 1971 GAS-S-S! Everyone over 25 dies from a poison gas leak. Oh joy.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Y2koGTnLw4
Pot farmers turn into cannibals from smoking weed laced with some kinda f#cked up paraquat! the BLOODEATERS (1980)!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOKkK3_9NZE
PREMONITION (1976) I'ts some kinda weird ghost story,according to Psychotronic Video Guide. Anyone ever seen it?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTlCBP531Zw
Very much thankyou for the Werewolf info! Don't know if I want to spend $17 for something I may not look at more than once, but it would make a nice surprise for Dixie . . .

Another hippy/ horror movie for your list:
Curse of the Headless Horseman
Although its Hippies trying to be cool like cowboys with a Scooby Doo ending.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SpTg1DU9qs
The Godmonster of Indian Flats features a hippie-dippy chick dancing with the title "monster."
How about the original Wicker Man? It's full of folk music and free love and an isolated community of people living in harmony with nature, according to the old pagan ways. I'd call it a hippy horror movie. Just look at this:

I always thought the WICKER MAN to be a hippie horror flik as well. It don't get much hippy dippy than folk music.
What I wanna know-where can a person get a copy of DR.FRANKENSTIEN ON CAMPUS? and when was it renamed FLICK? And why? :question:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0202358/
It's sad that this kind of mindless trivia keeps me up at night. :bluesad:
THE WILD WORLD OF BATWOMAN...aka...SHE WAS A HIPPIE VAMPIRE....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VK17XdAzN4
Early hippies ,ya know...beatnicks! Dig it,man.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tqkewj1XMn8
Thou Shalt Not Kill....Except Sam Raimi plays a Charlie Manson type leading a band of murderous hippies, in a early scene the take out a family of campers with lawn darts! Great flick.
And then there is "Son Of Blob" with Cindy Williams as a stoner/hippie.
