Goodfellas tells the story of Henry Hill and parts of the story of his wife, Karen Hill, but there’s one important part of Karen’s story that the movie left out but referenced very subtly. The gangster genre has seen some of the best and most successful movies in film history, and one name that stands out in the genre is Martin Scorsese. Although Scorsese has made some of the most memorable gangster movies in history, the one that is considered his best (not only of the genre but in general) is Goodfellas, released in 1990 and based on the book Wiseguy by Nicholas Pileggi.
Bob Clark's 1974 horror film Black Christmas is one of the most influential slasher movies of all time, and it has an unforgettably chilling ending. In Black Christmas Billy is considered the villain as he picks off victims one by one, and after almost 50 years, his identity is still debated. The story takes place in a sorority house, where the residents are throwing a Christmas party before they depart. Little do they know, however, that a perverted killer has made his way into the house, and is preparing to pick them off one by one. The Billy Black Christmas character remains in the shadows for most of the movie, that is, until the chilling ending.
