When people talk about Master's Hammer, the album that I see most people bring up is Ritual. Which is entirely reasonable, it rules.
However, I would like to draw your attention to the equally brilliant (and far weirder) Jilemnický okultista.

I watched this movie last night. It was a true treat! It's a film that's made to imitate a local access news broadcast from 1987 and it really nails it.
