Some comedy movies can be an endless stream of creativity, throwing out typical filmmaking rules to provide trippy plot lines and mile-a-minute laughs. With their speedy pace and anything-goes brashness, off-the-wall comedies are perfect to reflect and entertain the modern "meme" era. The unexpected success of many daring films in recent years (and, of course, the Best Picture win of something as daring as Everything Everywhere All At Once) proves that audiences are hungry for new ideas and imaginative worlds beyond tired blockbusters.
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.
