Black Christmas Reviews
The orginal phone call slasher.
It was the night before Christmas and all through the house a creature was sturring, sound scary wait till you see the movie, creepy phone calls, a dark emety house and one crazy psycho set the stage for maby the scarest film I've ever sean, the movie was veary orginal and inavative, it holds it's own agenst any horror film.
If this movie doesn't make your skin crawl, it's on too tight!
The Original Camera Stalking Horror
Even though this film doesn't even come close to "Halloween", it was the original POV (point of view) hand-held camera stalker movie... you know.... where the camera acts like it is the eyes of the killer.
Anyway the plot is pretty much your run-of-the-mill deranged serial killer on the loose stalking girls in a university sorority house type horror movie, but it does boast some inventive camera shots, lighting and scares. Even though the film does not have the same kind of impact now, it was certainly a very frightening movie for its time.
A girl from the sorority house goes missing, a killer moves into the attic upstairs, strange phone calls are made to the house, a child is found murdered in the park and one of the girls has strange thoughts about an abortion as her boyfriend pianist begins to loose his mind.
The acting is pretty tacky but you will find actors like Keir Dullea (2001: A space Odyssey) playing a lead role in this movie. There are also a few other actors who went on to do better things - Margot Kidder (Superman) and John Saxon (Nightmare on Elm Street).
Overall there are a lot worse "slasher" movies out there but there are also a lot of better ones. Anyhow, you might as well see the original POV "slasher" movie if you haven't already. It is not that bad ... but it is not that good either. Sort of middle-ground horror hokum.
