A suicidal artist tries to end his miserable life on Halloween night and fails after jumping off the roof of a ramshackle LA boarding house. After the fall, his soul has somehow become possessed by the spirit of a murderous criminal. This horror movie explains how and why. Now the poor bum finds himself haunted by terrible dreams of places he's never been and atrocities he could never think of committing. The dreams take an even darker edge when he begins reading about of a series of murders. Each victim was killed in exactly the same way he dreamed they were; he also learns that each was involved in the killing of the crook. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

Virtually overnight, the remote Mexican village of San Remos has become a religious shrine thanks to the "sacred relics" unearthed by a young woman named Jacinta (Eugenia Wright). People from all over the world are crowding into the tiny community, hoping to be cured of catastrophic illnesses by Jacinta and her holy artifacts. At the request of Archbishop Vallejo (Rene Enriquez), Quincy (Jack Klugman) and Sam (Robert Ito) join an international medical team to determine if the ancient religious icons are genuine--and the results are quite astonishing for all concerned. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

This is a relatively early entry in the slice-n-dicer genre that while made in 1976, was not actually released until the early '80s. Like most of the subsequent slasher flicks, the terror begins when a few horny couples head out to a remote location for fun and frolic. Unfortunately, their sexploits are interrupted by a homicidal maniac wearing a mask. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

Victoria Vetri, who has also acted under the name of Ahna Capri, stars in Group Marriage. The plot is inherent in the title of this combination sex farce and social satire. Six affluent young couples decide to live together for economy's sake. They also decide to exchange mates now and then, just to remain up-to-date with contemporary mores. Soon, however, all 12 participants realize that monogamy has its charms, too. Featured in the cast of Group Marriage is the late, great Claudia Jennings, whose ample physical attributes are shown to excellent advantage. The film also stars comedian Milt Kamen, who evidently had a few extra bills to pay that week. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Luther Adler guest stars as Leo Vorka, an aging European dictator who intends to purge his country of all young artists and intellectuals. The IMF hopes to topple Vorka from power and install his friendlier deputy Bartzin (Ben Astar) in his place. The mission: To drive Vorka insane and convince his deputies that the old man must be deposed immediately. The success of the scheme hinges upon a cleverly arranged series of "ghostly" visions, courtesy of a rigged closed-circuit TV. Antoinette Bower, who'd played the damsel in distress in the second-season Mission: Impossible story "The Slave", is here cast as IMF agent--and erstwhile phantom--Nora Bennett. Originally broadcast on February 8, 1970, "Phantoms" was written by Laurence Heath. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Saunders (Vic Morrow) and the squad are assigned to escort a group of German prisoners to a POW camp. But with the Germans outnumbering the Americans 18 to 5, it's a strong likelihood that the prisoners will overpower their captors and escape long before the mission is accomplished. Featured as one of the German captives is Ron Soble, then concurrently starring as renegade Indian "Dirty Jim" on the TV western series The Monroes. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
