Drive In Massacre is a 1976 horror movie, written by George 'Buck' Flower (as Buck Flowers), John Goff, and Stu Segall (as Godfrey Daniels), and directed by Stu Segall, with make up effects credited to "the Duke of Disguise". Co writer John Goff allegedly also has a cameo in the film, but this is unconfirmed.

The title is shown as though it were written in letters on the marquee of an actual drive in theatre.

The plot begins on August 10th in a California drive-in theatre, and concerns a killer on the loose, with the victims beheaded with a large sword. Two police are sent to investigate the killings, and question the owner of the drive in and his "assistant", and a local peeping Tom, before going undercover to catch the killer themselves.

The original video release also includes the theatrical trailer, in which the title is misspelled as Drive In Masacre. This was retitled 'Drive In Killer' for its West German release.
