Black Christmas(original)
1975
Starring:
Olivia Hussey1968 Romeo & Juilet), Keir Dullea, Margot Kidder, Andrea Martin(2006 Black Christmas), John Saxon(Nightmare on elm st)
[The few remaining residents of a Canadian sorority house are celebrating the onset of Christmas vacation when a thirteen year-old is found in the park. Soon, it is discovered that one of the sorority sisters is missing, which triggers a terrifying chain of within the house. ]

The original Black Christmas is still terrifying to this day.
it startys off with a series of disterbing phone calls to a sorrity house from a strange man speaking crude and ual remarks.
Later a young is found ed, and a sorrity sister goes missing. Her father is in town desprate to find her, and seeks the help of the sisters. The calls continue to come in and become more and more menicing. They are later traced and the s discover they are coming from within the house. This film set the "killer in the house genre" and inspired films such as "When A Stranger Calls"(original and remake) The only problem with the film is we never get to know the killer. Who is he and why is he doing this? Why did he choose to kill at this house, let alone this town? But still the film is effective and still creepy. of course in this day and age we've seen this type of movie many times before, but it still satisfies.
