Black Christmas is a 2019 American slasher film directed by Sophia Takal, and written by Takal and April Wolfe.It is the second loose remake of the 1974 Canadian film Black Christmas, after the 2006 film, following a group of sorority sisters who become targeted by an unknown stalker. The film stars Imogen Poots, Aleyse Shannon, Lily Donoghue, Brittany O'Grady, Caleb Eberhardt and Cary Elwes.

Development of the film began in June 2019 when Jason Blum announced that he would be producing a second remake of the 1974 film through his studio Blumhouse Productions. On the same day, Sophia Takal joined the project as director and co-writer. Principal photography began soon after the announcement and took place in New Zealand during 27 days.

The film is expected to be released in the United States on December 13, 2019 by Universal Pictures, coinciding with Friday the 13th.

A themed slasher that goes nowhere with the concept. I have not seen the previous versions but I can't imagine the themes of feminism being so into-your-face. The movie is just not scary enough to be effective and specially when they have to cut down on the gore due to PG-13 rating. The chase inside the house is the only highlight, the end fight was hilariously unintentional.

Totally undercooked but watchable I guess. It feels beyond tame.
