Hilariously Dimension films thought that this film would market better by having Christmas related death scenes added to the trailer, of which none appear in the actual film.

This should have been the first indication that maybe the movie needed to be tweaked. Far too much in your face and not enough suspense.… Expand

It's the worst argument in the history of cinema! Besides the argument is so typical and repeated ... The only thing I liked was that in the film are very good and famous actresses. Gore, pointless and nasty!

Truly terrible. Completely disappointing. Even actors such as Lacy Chabert who is brilliant in Mean Girls can't lift the completely predictable and boring plot. Yes, it is gory but the film feels so cheap and sleazy--complete waste of Truly terrible. Completely disappointing. Even actors such as Lacy Chabert who is brilliant in Mean Girls can't lift the completely predictable and boring plot. Yes, it is gory but the film feels so cheap and sleazy--complete waste of money. The idea of a scary Christmas film was different...but this film is just a rip off of films like Final Destination with the characters being killed off one by one. I almost left early.… Expand

This film is a poor versoin of the original, baring the same name. No film of last year was great, but this film was just awful. Everything about this movie is just terrible.

So stale. Nowadays the horror film doesn't consist of tactics to scare the audience, but instead we're treated to good looking women who are killed by random people with no story and all in the same exact way. I'm not kidding. So stale. Nowadays the horror film doesn't consist of tactics to scare the audience, but instead we're treated to good looking women who are killed by random people with no story and all in the same exact way. I'm not kidding. Every single person in this movie other than the killers and one woman are stabbed to death. One person's stabbed with a pen, another with a candy cane, and ice skate, a FREAKING unicorn decoration, an icicle magically falls through a woman's face. It's ridiculous.… Expand

Bad movie. Lots of gore, but a stupid story line. Not worth the money.

A clumsy remake that did much more to buitcher the plot and dark ending of its namesake than it did to butcher utterly forgettable sorority girls.

Worst movie I've seen in a long time. Putrid and shameful attempt to cash in on the success of horror remakes. Insulting to the viewer.

I was so very disappointed to find that this flick, which I was hoping would fall into the "unintentionally comic" horror sub-genre, did not bolster my customary anti-Christmas spirit in the least.

He must've had a really tough time of it since Biodome...".… Expand

As Jennifer Hudson proves to be one of the best actresses and best singers of our generation, Beyonce and Sharon Leal prove to be equally outstanding. I have never seen such a Oscar-worthy masterpiece filled with so many Oscar-worthy parts. As Jennifer Hudson proves to be one of the best actresses and best singers of our generation, Beyonce and Sharon Leal prove to be equally outstanding. I have never seen such a Oscar-worthy masterpiece filled with so many Oscar-worthy parts. Eddie Murphy may have erased his career mistakes and declared his best performance ever. A Oscar nomination in his spot would be more than appropriate. He showed tremendous talent in his singing and powerful acting. Jamie Foxx and his outstanding show could bring him another Oscar, this time as best supporting actor. Danny Glover and Anika Noni Rose, in smaller Parts are also outstanding. The movie is undeniably powerful and totally unforgettable. See it and cherish the memories weeks after, because this one will stick with you for life. It is life-changing and it is worth a 2000 dollar ticket if you ask me! It is a privilege to see a movie this amazing. A Genius Masterpiece.… Expand

Complete garbage. This film can't decide whether it's playing it straight or for laughs, and therefore, it fails at both. Miserably. For the first 20 minutes, characters walk on screen simply to be slaughtered immediately. When we Complete garbage. This film can't decide whether it's playing it straight or for laughs, and therefore, it fails at both. Miserably. For the first 20 minutes, characters walk on screen simply to be slaughtered immediately. When we finally meet the major characters, they are the stupidest bunch of horror movie characters ever, making bizarre decisions that no one in their situation would. The hospital ending is just ludicrous. The audience booed long and long at the screening I attended. And I couldn't agree more.… Expand

There's been a lot of negativity about this movie, I never saw the original but I did think this film looked interesting after watching the trailer. Basically, this film is pure fun, it won't win any awards but it is enjoyable. It isn't scaryThere's been a lot of negativity about this movie, I never saw the original but I did think this film looked interesting after watching the trailer. Basically, this film is pure fun, it won't win any awards but it is enjoyable. It isn't scary but the over the top kills and gore make this film enjoyable to watch with friends. The acting is pretty good and the film tries it's best to establish each character before the main bloodshed begins. I'd say my favourite characters were Melissa and Lauren, I like Melissa because of her loyalty and i liked Lauren because she had cracking lines. One of the bad things about this film is the slightly repetitive kills, OKAY! we get you like eyeballs!!!!! but i won't go to much detail here. One of the things the film did well was making you grow somewhat attached to the characters (apart from Kelli, she was just bland). Overall I'd say, go to this film if you like slasher films but don't go expecting a masterpiece. But for what it is, i thought it was a blast to watch, especially with a group of friends.… Expand

The Plot Is Very Stupid, And Useless! I Do Like Two Of The Cast Members-

These coeds better watch out, for a vicious killer is on the loose, and he will not care if they are naughty or nice. A gratuitous remake of the 1974 slasher, Black Christmas pumps out the gore and blood with zero creativity, humor, or visual flair. Final Grade is a D.… Expand
