Halloween vs Black Christmas
I like the both. I prefer Black Christmas.
shareAgreed.
shareLike comparing very fine wine to me. Both are masterful to me in their own way.
You'll sometimes hear people say Halloween borrowed from Black Christmas. Carpenter has spoken about this, and Bob Clark himself said more than once he only gave John a small seed, and Halloween was all John. The two films are both horror films, slasher films, based around holidays. Beyond there, both are fantastic on their own. Certainly compared to much of the horror garbage of today, and the godawful remakes of both films.
Personally, Black Christmas scared me alot more. I love both movies but in terms of being scary, Black Christmas. But in terms of rewatchability, it's gotta be Halloween.

Exactly right. It's really hard to compare them because they're both masterful and excellent in their own ways. But what cannot be denied is that Halloween was definitely inspired by Black Christmas. share
