FAST DELIVERY. 1) DEATHDREAM 1974 Directed by BOB CLARK, written by Alan Ormsby. - A young soldier killed in Vietnam inexplicably shows up to his family home one night. A young Soldier is killed in the line of duty in Vietnam. That same night, the soldier returns home, brought back by his Mother's wishes that he "Don't Die"! Upon his Return, Andy sits in his room, refusing to see his friends or family, venturing out only at night. The Vampiric horror is secondary to the terror that comes from the disintegration of a typical American familyCAST : John Marley, Lynn Carlin, Richard Backus. BEHIND THE SCENES TRIVIA : Richard Backus was cast as Andy because he was able to create a silent stare of intense hatred for the casting agent. Backus' creepy facial expression came into play frequently for the film. Bob Clark and his associates shot this film back-to-back with Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things (1972). Both films were shot on location in Florida with much of the same cast and crew. Clark, Alan Ormsby, Jeff Gillen and other crew would later reunite in 1974 to make the Canadian-shot horror film, Deranged: Confessions of a Necrophile (1974). This film and its themes can in many ways be seen as an early reflection of the popular awareness of the effect of combat trauma on soldiers that the Vietnam War helped bring to light. Much of Andy's disposition and symptoms, e.g. sudden violent behaviour due to the re-living of traumatic experiences, would later be associated with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, defined by the American Psychiatric Association in the Third Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (1980).
