Black Christmas is on netflix Instant Watch.
Not only is it the perfect "holiday flick" to insert into your yearly traditions if you haven't already, but it's also considered by many to be one of the first movies to start the "slasher style" that Michael Myers and Jason popularized. It's a legitimately creepy and well-made flick and a must see. It's one of the few movies where they never truly identify the killer, which just adds a level of dread to the movie that is missing in a lot of the movies that followed it.
Another fun fact is that it was directed by Bob Clark, director of "A Christmas Story".

too bad dusty spoiled the ending, oh well, I'm gonna watch it today
Ah, sorry. But it's one of those things that is like "In The Christmas Story, the kid gets a BB Gun". It's so well known to anyone that watches horror movies (usually) that I just didn't think about it.
That's not really the point of the film anyway. Enjoyment will not be ruined.

A lot of people got so butthurt about that flick. I recommended it to a few people as well and they came back with seething hatred. Okay, they didn't like the movie, but I don't see why some people hated as much as they did.
I thought it was a fun throwback for sure.

Yeah, I watch this movie every year for Christmas, too. It's a highly entertaining flick.
I finally watched "The Human Centipede". I had held off for so long, because it felt like I had already watched the movie without even watching it just from seeing the trailer. And yeah...that's pretty much the movie. Ends like I expected it, too.
That all said...fairly decent. I think the movie would have been better if they hadn't given everything away in the trailer and poster and just called the movie "Centipede" or something. That way their shock factor would have actually be shocking.

The Fly is awesome. The sequel is a bit goofy but it's pretty entertaining as well, plus it has a few good kills (the guy getting his face melted off for example)
