Description: Scott Farkus had yellow eyes, so Billy has yellow skin? Three decades after the original holiday horror classic, Black Christmas returns to the sorority house with a bloodier, louder reimagining of the 1974 shocker. This time, the filmmakers don’t just hint at the killer in the attic; they dive headfirst into his backstory, piling on gruesome kills and seasonal mayhem. The remake leans hard into gore, a twisted family history, and red-glowing Christmas lights. But does explaining the mystery make it scarier, or does it strip away what made the original so unsettling? Arnie, Stuart, and Brock deck the halls with entrails as they decide whether this reboot is a gift for horror fans or something that should have stayed wrapped.
