Before Halloween, before Friday the 13th, there was Black Christmas. In this audio episode, we revisit Bob Clark’s 1974 holiday horror classic to see if it still holds up nearly 50 years later. We break down the chilling atmosphere, iconic phone calls, standout performances, and why this film is often cited as the true blueprint for the modern slasher. Is Black Christmas a timeless masterpiece—or just an influential relic? Let’s talk horror history.
