As the campus of Hardwicke College winds down for the holiday season, a group of sorority girls find themselves stalked by an unknown killer. However, the killer didn’t count on the girls being more than just helpless victims…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

The second remake of the 1974 horror cult classic, this version of Black Christmas has a decisively more feminist tone and spirit, altering expectations of what a slasher movie can and can’t do with its female victims.
