The Reel Film Forum Presents: Bob Clark’s BLACK CHRISTMAS

A Canadian Slasher Classic – One Night Only!

Before Halloween… before Friday the 13th… there was BLACK CHRISTMAS. Released in 1974, Bob Clark’s chilling masterpiece is often credited as the first true slasher film—and it was made right here in Canada.

Set against the glow of holiday lights and the sound of carols drifting through the cold night air, a quiet sorority house becomes the scene of unspeakable terror when an unseen killer begins stalking the women inside. With its eerie atmosphere, groundbreaking use of POV shots, and haunting phone calls that still send shivers down spines, BLACK CHRISTMAS redefined horror and paved the way for decades of slashers to follow.

The film stars Olivia Hussey, Margot Kidder, Lynne Griffin, and John Saxon. Canadian actress Lynne Griffin delivers one of the most unforgettable performances in horror history as Clare Harrison—the sorority sister whose tragic fate, wrapped ironically in holiday décor, has become one of the most enduring and chilling images in the slasher genre.

Join us this holiday season to experience the film that started it all—a homegrown Canadian horror classic that continues to inspire and terrify generations of fans worldwide.

“If this picture doesn’t make your skin crawl… it’s on too tight!”

Made in Canada. Made for the big screen. Don’t miss this rare theatrical return—where festive cheer meets pure fear.
