Black Christmas Reviews

external linkArguably the best in the game, Black Christmas is nevertheless an awesome movie that deserves every bit of recognition it has earned. With great atmosphere, cool ideas, and the most manic killer I've ever seen, it's sure to leave you on the edge of your seat. [read review]
--Craig Atchison (Diabolical-Dominion.com)
external linkAverage slasher entry has some strange plotting and moves somewhat slow making it minimally enjoyable. However you have to give it an 'A' for effort. ... A must for slasher fans just because it helped create such genre standards as looking through the killer's eyes. [read review] 2/4

external link...very creepy, atmospheric and unjustly forgotten film, easily one of the best slasher movies of all time. By today's standards, the story may be a little slow. ... But all in all, this is an absolute must see and undeniably the finest Christmas fear film ever made -- way better than any of the "Silent Night Deadly Night" filmes. [read review]

external linkSimply terrific movie, which doesn't feel as 70's as you might think it will feel like. This is one of my personal favourites but since it doesn't have much suspense or intense scenes, I can't bring myself to giving this five stars. [read review] 4/5
--AnthroFred (SlasherPool)
external link“Black Christmas” is a terrifying film on many levels. One is that you never see the killer – only one of his eyes, and THAT is scary enough. Two, you never know why he is killing – it just starts and seemingly ends... [read review] 4/5
--Elaine Lamkin (Bloody-Disgusting.com)
external linkThere are two things that make Black Christmas different from any number of eighties slasher films: 1) it invented the style they used, and 2) it's smarter than most of them. [read review] 62/100
--Jack Witzig (ColdSpot)
external linkThe chilling conclusion restores the movie's overall rep, however, proving again that first and last impressions last longest. [read review] 4/5
