I must be one of the few people who thinks the orignal Black Christmas is one of the best horror-films made (and obviously it's not nostalgia). I just think it's genuinely creepy (the phone calls, the killings themselves, the cold atmosphere) and I like the twist (or anti-twist). Modern films can't scare me like that... maybe it's because the older ones don't have lame, heavy-metal soundtracks, ironic post-Scream dialogue and crystal-clear pictures (I dig the graininess of old films). Second only to the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre for me, followed by a group of not-quite-horror-films like Repulsion, Don't Look Now, etc.
