The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane
 I don't know how much other people will enjoy this one actually (I've shown it to four or five people, and none of them cared for it) but I thought it was a really interesting little mystery film, with a very unique atmosphere. One of my favorites. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074806/ and... Fright Night  One of the best horror films ever, in my opinion. It's just a really fun film, that's a total blast to watch. Roddy Mcdowall is also outstanding in this. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089175/

I haven't got my copy of The Iron Rose but I'll let you know what I think fortunato cheers
In the meantime I highly recommend The Mutations (1973) which stars horror stalwarts Donald Pleasance and Tom Baker. In terms of its side plot it doffs its cap to Freaks but its main plot is more along the lines of "organic horror". The two elements work really well together-a must see for any fans of Freaks.Plus on another level-the plant scenes are very surreal so it works very well as a visual experience.

Jeremiah Johnson (1972)
 *SPOILER ALERT* Jeremiah Johnson (Redford) is an American soldier who goes west to the Colorado mountains to escape the Mexican war, and become a mountain man. After learning how to live off the land, settling down and even forming a new family, Jeremiah is made to lead a search party by the US Army and trespasses on a sacred Indian burial ground. The natives retaliate by slaughtering his family, and he sets off to get vengeance on those who killed them. Directed by the great Sydney Pollack (who worked with Redford on several other great films), the movie takes on a very slow pace, with a minimal of dialogue. The breathtaking cinematography of the gorgeous landscapes are among the finest of any film. Highly recommend to everybody this under seen masterpiece. Scarecrow (1973)  Scarecrow is a phenomenal film. It boasts fantastic performances by Al Pacino and Gene Hackman (who are both at the top of their game), wonderful direction (most notably in director Jerry Schatzberg's use of long takes which fits this film perfectly) and brilliant writing with deep, complex and most importantly 'real' characters. Hackman plays Max, a recently released convict who dreams of moving to Pittsburgh to open his own car wash. Pacino plays Francis an ex-sailor who plans on going to Detroit to meet his child for the first time. The two become friends and bond while hitchhiking and in a manner similar to 'Midnight Cowboy' their odd realationship begins. The one and only complaint I have about Scarecrow is, sometimes the scenes were cut short a bit early. One scene in particular (I won't reveal as it is a major spoiler) could have had so much more emotional resonance had the director let it go on a tad bit longer.
