Disclaimer: I am sick as hell and half loopy from cough medicine so what follows may or may not be entirely decipherable. Black Christmas is a slasher movie that was made four years before John Carpenter released Halloween and set a foundation for the genre. In 1974, a film about a crazy person knocking off an entire sorority was probably still a pretty fresh idea and I respect that they were d...

Previously On... Camp Crystal Lake It has been a few years since I sat down to watch a Friday film and I had completely forgotten about the dumb opening montage that they insist on playing at the start of each film. I don’t need a five minute clip parade just so you can explain why Jason is chained to the bottom of Crystal Lake. We’re cool. Seriously. Carrie Vs. Jason After six Friday films, Ja...
