Seizure (1974) is the directorial debut of Oliver Stone, who also co-wrote the screenplay.

The film stars Jonathan Frid as horror writer Edmund Blackstone, whose recurring nightmare comes to chilling life one weekend as one by one, his friends and family are killed by three villains, led by Martine Beswick as the Queen of Evil, and Hervé Villechaize as Spider. The cast also includes former teen heartthrob Troy Donahue and Christina Pickles.

Star Mary Woronov would later claim that one of the film's producers was gangster Michael Thevis, who partially bankrolled the film in an attempt to launder money, as he was under investigation by the FBI.
