I just checked the synopis of both "Rabid" and "I Drink Your Blood" and Bud Man, you were right! They ate meat pies to get the rabies--- I definately remember that part and the motorcycle gang that I remembered certainly could have been the hippies in the movie.

Think I am going to have to try to get a copy and then talk one of my daughters into coming over some night to watch it with me.

This has been bugging me for years!
