It's nowhere near as good as the original but it's pretty fun and they give Billy a pretty scary background. Pretty good deaths, too!

Night 1 -The Grinch
In this live-action adaptation of the beloved children's tale by Dr. Seuss, the reclusive green Grinch (Jim Carrey) decides to ruin Christmas for the cheery citizens of Whoville. Reluctantly joined by his hapless dog, Max, the Grinch comes down from his mountaintop home and sneaks into town to swipe everything holiday-related from the Whos. However, the bitter grump finds a hitch in his plans when he encounters the endearing Cindy Lou Who (Taylor Momsen). |

The Grinch
8.5/10 One of my favourite Christmas films, love Jim Carrey as The Grinch. The length of the film is perfect, doesn't get boring. Overall it's a fantastic, magical film to watch in the festive season. Last edited by Will.; 05-12-2015 at 03:22 PM. |

Night 2 - Home Alone
When bratty 8-year-old Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) acts out the night before a family trip to Paris, his mother (Catherine O'Hara) makes him sleep in the attic. After the McCallisters mistakenly leave for the airport without Kevin, he awakens to an empty house and assumes his wish to have no family has come true. But his excitement sours when he realizes that two con men (Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern) plan to rob the McCallister residence, and that he alone must protect the family home.

Black Christmas (1974)
9/10 Honestly one of the creepiest films (in my opinion) ever made. The calls are so disturbing and mystery of it all makes it even more terrifying. There is a lack of brutality in the film and you only see the killer once - and even then he is in the shadows, but it is honestly so suspenseful and creepy and keeps you on the edge of your seat. There are some disturbing elements to the film, including the killer imitating to be a cat from a girl's closet to entice her to open the door and eluding to the fact he killed a young girl called Agnes (although it isn't confirmed if they're related but it's inferred he's imitating his mother scolding him for murdering his baby sister). The main character, Jess, is well developed and you really feel for her and become terrified for her when she's the last one around and she sort of knows something bad is happening but can't accept it. Barb is an amazing feature as well - an amazing character whose provides some light relief and her death scene is one of the best aspects of the movie. The only reason the film drops a mark is because it needs tighter pacing - it's an hour and 40 minutes long but some aspects in the middle feel a little unnecessary (Peter's piano class/Jess being pregnant - but I suppose that adds to her character). Oh, and although some people may complain about the ending not actually answering any questions like who the killer actually was or whether Jess actually died (due to her being sedated and the killer leaving the attic - and then the phone ringing as a phone call always signifies a murder) but I think it adds to the ambiguity and charm of it. Overall, an amazing film and probably the best 'murderer in the house making phone calls to a girl downstairs' horror film out there which is why I'm awarding it 9 out of 10. |
