Black Christmas, the first stalk-and-slash movie, is a start and stylish horror/thriller that turns everyone's favourite time of the year inside out. Festivities turn fatal when obscense phone calls break the serenity and it becomes clear that a psychopath is stalking a sorority house. Margot Kidder (The Amityville Horrow, Tribulation, Superman) and Olivia Hussey (Death on the Nile, Turkey Shoot, Romeo & Juliet) star among the ill-fated houseful of sorority sisters celebrating the holiday season, along with Keir Dullea (2001: A Space Odyssey, Brainwaves, 2010) and John Saxon (A Nightmare on Elm St, Enter The Dragon, From Dusk Till Dawn). Several unsuspecting people are soon to receive Season's Greetings - of terror.

Predating Halloween and Friday the 13th by several years, Black Christmas effectively lad the groundwork for murder thrillers that would follow with its clever interplay of tension, shocks - and humour.

So have yourslef a scary little Christmas...It's not like the ones you used to know.
