As far as the Black Christmas remake goes, its my absolute most hated remake ever. If you loved the original as much as I did, I would give it a great big pass.

Had one good death scene going for it, but that certainly didn't make up for the rest of that mess.
Yeah, I'm not a fan.....;)
Anyway, I'm sure we are going to be starting new traditions this year. our first Christmas together as a married couple. I know I plan to finally watch Silent Night, Deadly Night if I get a chance. Its been recommended to me for years, and this is the year, I think....:p I also HAVE to watch Scrooge (the Alastair Sim version that ChronoGrl , which is my favorite version of the tale ever) or A Christmas Carol (the version with Reginald Owen).

Yeah, I was
wondering what people thought who had seen the original... I figured that it would be hated, but I wanted to hear from others who had seen it (the only person I know who has seen it is my Boy and he enjoyed it as well)... I'll definitely have to check the original film out... I'm a Slasher Sucker, so I didn't have a problem with the remake... Now I HAVE to add the original to my list.
Oooo... You brought up the Reginald Owen Christmas Carol... ANOTHER classic... Definitely comes after Scrooge for me (and I'm tickled that you even KNOW the Alastair Sim version... It's seriously one of my favorite movies of all time... especially this time of year).

BTW Congrats on your first married Christmas. :)
