Madhouse (1981)

Two twins. Julia, a beautiful saint who works with deaf kids, and Mary, a deformed psychopathic killer, reunite after many years apart! But wait... there's a twist!

A slow but well-crafted Giallo-tinged slasher that can be quite unnerving at times and has a great finale - yes, I even liked the dog hand-puppet! There's a decent amount of blood with a face smashing, some dog kills, stabbings and a nice hatchet job.

Not bad at all.

Simon, King of the Witches (1971)

A Promethean tale of man challenging the gods and the establishment through magic, magick or however you prefer to "spell" (boom-tish!) it. Earnest in its approach of the subject matter, although that doesn't mean it's not fucking hilarious in places (the Wiccan ceremony for one), and the only film I know of with a magical erection that won't go away. Remember though, that there's always a price to pay and in this case, it's the terrible clothes. Super groovy man!
