Black Christmas (1974) review By Psycho Billy

Hello all,
This week we are starting our 3rd annual Holiday of Horrors witch is our annual horror movie review time. The whole month we are going to be reviewing Holiday theme movies.

But this year we are bringing back the Great Psycho Billy from the dead to review for Holiday of Horrors.
He will be reviewing a lot of movies and since we got a short window for Holidays of Horrors we are going too kick off with a review right away

So here is Psycho Billys review of Black Christmas (1974)

"If this movie doesn't make your skin crawl... It's On Too Tight!"

This tag line inspired a rash of Holi-Horror flick (Holiday Horror), in fact if it weren't for this film, Halloween would have never been made. On a clear Christmas night, a series of murders are occurring at a sorority house, mysterious phone calls believed to be pranks but are the mad ravings of a psychopath, who is willing to butcher those who cross him and all. Now, I love this film for it's on edgeness and filming style. The fact is it is like what I say, The devil you can't see is much more terrifying than that of the devil you can. You only see the killer for a fraction of a second, and that is a section of his eye. The killer is deemed Billy and is believed to have an accomplice named Agnes, although Agnes is never seen, only referenced. This film predates Halloween by four years, but upon release, it was renamed to other titles ranging from "Silent Night, Evil Night", it's U.S. release, to "Stranger in the House", it's U.S. Television release on NBC, making it nearly impossible to track down. It kick started the Holi-Horror craze and was the first film to have the killer inside the house, which would not be seen until When a Stranger Calls in 1979 and seem the second time for the remake of Black Christmas in 2006. But I will warn you that the film is confusing because you are truly unsure of who the killer is until the very end.

I give this film four jack-o-lanterns out of six for effort, writing, direction of Bob Clark, the casting of Olivia Hussey (Audra Phillips in IT and mother Bates in PSYCHO IV: THE BEGINNING) and the amazingness and creepiness of the film throughout.

We hope you enjoyed his review and there will be more to come.
We also are slowing making a new change to the site, we are going to have videos on it from youtube every month we will have a differnt set of videos
Some might be our own videos as well
We hope you enjoy holidays of Horrors and please visit our site Http://mchc60.50webs.com we have tons of reviews and now Psycho Billys Holidays of horrors

The Crypt Haunted house Review

Hello all,
We got our final haunted house review for the 2010 haunt season, we are sad too see it come to the end, since Halloween we are running our Yard of Terror home haunt.
so our final review for 2010 is

The Crypt, Located at: Burton,Michigan
This is my first year ever going to The Crypt and I thought it was a good haunt. It was an old school type of a hunt with a lot of great scenes in it. It had a lot of awesome props in it and it was very gory. One of the reasons why I liked it was a in your face type of a haunt. People in your face every left and right trough the whole entire haunt. But there was some things I disliked about it as well. I thought it was a little to short for my liking, I wish it was a little bit longer. Another reason why I didn't like it was that I could see people ahead of the time so when theu jumped out in front of us we already had see thems. But other then that I think The Crypt was a great haunt and if you are in the area its deffently a must go.
Our offical rating for The Crypt is 4 out of 6 skulls.

We hope you enjoyed our review,
Now as we said before we are having a haunted yard and if your looking for a good time you guys should stop by
We are open 7 to ?? located in Taylor,Michigan on Polk St right of ecorse,
So check it out and please go to our site http://mchc60.50webs.com

We are back in action, this week we got a couple reviews for you,
Today we are reviewing another great haunt for our annual Hauntober celebration which is our haunted house review section in the club.
Today's review is

Extreme Scream Haunted House, Located in Waterford, Michigan.
We have been going to the Extreme Scream for years now since it was right in our neighborhood and we always loved it, and this years haunt was no different. This years haunt was really awesome one of my favorite haunted house so far this haunt season. They have a lot of unique scenes trough out the haunt, and it will scare the hell out of you every step trough this haunt. Another reason why I loved this haunt is it's strictly a old school haunt, just great scenes and great scares. This haunt as also changed a lot with new scenes and good scares. I have no complants about this haunt. Also the price is very reasonable and its well worth it. If you like in your face fear and awesome scares this haunt is for you, and it's always been a favorite of mine and I always look forward to getting scared and having a good time at the Extreme Scream and I think you will too.
So our official rating of Extreme Scream is 6 out of 6 skulls

We hope you enjoyed our review, next review is The Crypt located in Burton,Michigan.
Now has the haunt season comes to a fast end we only got one review left then we start working on our own haunt to Halloween
