Black Christmas/YMMV


The original:

  • Crowning Moment of Funny: Mrs. Mac is discussing with Clare's father about her disappearance in Clare's room, when he notices a poster of an old woman giving the finger. Mrs. Mac looks at it, and then just nervously smiles.
  • Cult Classic
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Director Bob Clark later went on to make A Christmas Story.
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel: The numerous shots of Clare's corpse on the rocking chair in the attic, Barb's murder, the phone calls...
  • Jerkass Woobie: Peter.
  • Nightmare Fuel: The group of caroling children.
  • Seinfeld Is Unfunny: It was, more or less, one of the first slashers.

The remake:

  • Complete Monster: Mrs. Lenz.
  • Ending Fatigue: The tacked on hospital sequence.
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel: Melissa's death in the UK edition. After having a bag pulled over her head, she gets her eyes ripped out, and is subsequently dragged kicked and screaming down the hallway by her bleeding sockets.
  • So Bad It's Good
  • Squick: Eye ripping and munching, skingerbread men, incest...
