Black Christmas (1974)
First slasher
17 August 2021 - 2 out of 3 users found this review helpful.
As a shocker it is 100% original, it pre dates both Halloween and Friday the 13th yet hardly anyone seems to have heard of it and even fewer people seem to be aware the effects it had on its far more illustrious and in my opinion slightly inferior shocker relatives. The cast are excellent John "B movie king" Saxon, Margot Kidder and Olivia Hussey are all standouts. Black Christmas will make you laugh, shudder and jump in equal measures. If you are a fan of ground breaking, CGI free original and pure horror this is the perfect film for you. After being at the upper end pricewise it has come down significantly in price. So buy now to avoid disappointment but only if you enjoy being scared.
