Deathdream
Directed by Bob Clark
When their son returns home after dying in war, a couple suspect he’s not human. Soon enough, Andy is thirsty for blood to keep his body from rotting - which naturally causes problems for him and his parents. Before moving on to mainstream fare, Bob Clark (A CHRISTMAS STORY) directed three well-regarded horror films (including BLACK CHRISTMAS) of which DEATHDREAM is the most powerful, marrying W.W. Jacob’s classic horror story “The Monkey’s Paw” with an important social message about the violence of the Vietnam war - and how veterans bring it home with them.

Super creepy, great ending, featuring Leo Wolz from the Godfather.
Loved this one! A must watch!
well worth a watch. its dated but if you like 70's atmospheric horror, this is for you.
70's Creeper, Monkey's Paw vibe. I loved it but you have to love Bob Clark horror. A little slow but good payoff.
