In its attempts to build a franchise and legacy, Black Christmas stabs itself in the eye. Blind from any sort of craft or talent, every piece of the film fails in an overly exploitive and off-putting experience that is impossible to justify watching.

| Original Score: D- | Aug 28, 2022

It just became a game of Let's See Which One Will Get Her Eyeballs Plucked Out Next, and not much more

The editing is horrendous. The tone is all over the place. The gore is over-the-top. It's a trashy mess. And yet, it's still dumb fun.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 30, 2020

Certainly gory enough for fans of schlock horror.

| Original Score: 1.0/4.0 | Sep 3, 2020

A rather useless remake. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 2.5 | Jul 17, 2019

A colossal mess, which is not at all as dispiriting as those remakes of classic horror which are just empty, shallow exercises in genre mechanics.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Dec 17, 2011

All setup and no payoff makes this a dull film.

| Original Score: 0.0/4.0 | Oct 17, 2007

It isn’t a slasher film, a horror movie, or a comedy. It’s barely even a movie.

| Original Score: .5/5 | Jul 11, 2007

Black Christmas works best as a campy deconstruction of the genre than it does as a horror film.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jun 25, 2007

Shockingly awful in every way imaginable...

| Original Score: .5/4 | May 2, 2007

The fans will dig the brief-yet-nasty FX work, but they'll have to slog through a pretty tiresome movie just to get their hands on those nuggets.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 28, 2007

[I]t's just another witless trip to the slaughterhouse.

| Original Score: C | Apr 12, 2007

| Original Score: C | Jan 20, 2007

Morgan is never satisfied with a straightforward camera setup or with a simple asphyxiation -- not when he can shoot from a disorienting diagonal and give you an asphyxiation, eye-gouging, neck-breaking, and impalement all at once.

It's hard to get worked up over the fate of characters whose identities remain largely a matter of conjecture.

Glen Morgan's update of Bob Clark's 1974 slasher flick Black Christmas is an exemplar of how to screw up a modern horror film remake.
