Funny... I thought Black Christmas was the movie that 'invented' the slasher genre. Oh well, another case of Americans taking credit for something Canadian. Bullies!

If you look around this forum, or poll the horror community in general... Halloween will come out near the top on nearly everyone's TOP 10 LISTS. I honestly don't think I've heard anything bad said about this film on these forums. Also, Mike Meyers tops most FAVOURITE HORROR ICON lists; and John Carpenter's work is rarely ever looked down upon.

Now, with those facts, think about it.

PS. If you don't like Halloween, it's best to just to pretend you do. It's easier that way. Trust me.

But I do prefer Black Christmas to Halloween.

(( OH, and will someone explain why they love Halloween so much? Someone who'd rate it on their top 10. It's never been described why everyone thinks it's so amazing. I personally think it's a fit-in sort of thing. ))
