Retromania (Festive Faves) - Black Christmas

Event Description

"The calls are coming from inside the house!"

50 years ago, these iconic words perfectly illustrated the dread felt by those soon-to-be victims. The film that Jordan Peele cites as "one of the most influential horror films out there". During Christmas Vacation at a Canadian university, what starts as a series of disturbing phone calls slowly builds to the disappearance and presumed murder of several sorority members.

Eerie and chilling even by today's standards, the 1974 film delivers big scares without having to rely on blood and gore. A movie that will make you truly thankful this holiday season.

"One of the first truly effective holiday horror films"
-The Guardian

"not the kind of movie that you want to go to unless you're in the mood to be scared out of your mind!"
-Roger Ebert
