My Black Christmas Informational Masterlist(?):

Every now and then I get asked for links or sources to some of the things I post and/or reference. This serves to be easy access to anyone interested in more info regarding the film, Bob Clark, or Billy in general. I'm sure I will expand with more links or info at some point, but here are the basics.

Docs and Commentaries:

Commentary featuring Nick Mancuso reprising his role as Billy. If you're not entirely interested in seeing Billy be represented as something beyond the figure in the movie or are looking to gain more knowledge on the creation of Black Christmas, this probably isn't for you.

Just as the title says, this is a Mini-Documentary that explores Black Christmas, its legacy, and a look into it's production. If your here for more info on Billy I HIGHLY recommend this as Nick has some incredibly interesting insight. Includes Lynne Griffin, John Saxon, along with Carl Zitter. Also includes some older clips of Albert J (Black Christmas's Camera Man), Bob Clark, Olivia Hussey, and Margot Kidder.

Closest thing to an ACTUAL documentary on Black Christmas I've seen. Goes good into detail about the production and creation of Black Christmas going from "The Babysitter" to "Stop Me".

There are a TON more extra's from the special release in 2015. Here is a playlist which compiles all that are publicly available. This does not include Bob Clarks actual commentary, nor Keir and John's. I own those on DVD, and I'll see what I can do about converting them onto my laptop, but I majorly recommend purchasing the 4k re-release from last year if you're looking for them. It's def worth your money and time if you're interested.

Black Christmas: Film Extras

Tv Spots, Radio, etc:

The movie that had Siskel and Ebert, and most of America, putting it on the naughty list when it first hit the theaters.

Actual Documents:

2nd stage of the Black Christmas screenplays. Tread VERY lightly with this if you are sensitive to topics such as CSA and Child abuse, if you catch my drift. Has some problems with pages being turned upside down, but that's nothing I can fix at the moment.

The novelization based off of the "Stop Me" Screenplay. Questionable canonical status, but that's up to you. As it is based off "Stop Me" I am once again warning you to tread lightly and take care of yourself as the same warnings previous very much apply here.

ETC:

Not sure what to categorize this as, but I frequently see this slip under the radar of many people.

If you're looking at this masterlist because all of a sudden you've gained a fascination with this stupid fucking misogynist like I did, YOU WANT TO HEAR THIS! It is from Billy's POV and it gives a great insight into his mind and uses audio from the film, which if you rewatch the film after listening to this oh my god you will not be able to stop hearing shit. (Such as the fact I did not notice the music and wind in the beginning of the film when Billy enters the attic is literally just a bunch of people whispering his name.) Give it a listen, but again, tread lightly, if you, once again, catch my drift.

Agnes looking at remake writers to convince them to stop making her a random ass accomplice and let her live her fucking life without Billy

heyo it's been a bit, ive been busy with school and stuff and finally graduated whoopee!!!

anyway i was gonna do a more complex drawing of billy but i liked the sketch so i just colored it in and fixed it a tad bit. i love drawing him like a sweaty-toothed madman

also!!!! i deleted a few art pieces i didn't like. god, they're so cringe. don't look back, please. i was like 16 and thought i captured the essence of billy when i ended up being a hypocrite and contradicting what i hated, basically enabling how the fandom treated him. i might make a whole headcanon post of what i think billy is, has, and additional things as i still see him somewhat mischaracterized (though they are just other people's headcanons, which are fine).

holy yap 👀

I too am not a fan of the way I was about Billy Lenz there at The Beginning of Everything

[downtowncannibal]

And I KNOW I talk about this a lot, I know, I just feel it is so deeply important of a topic not only for the Black Christmas fandom but the slasher fandom as a whole because the treatment of women in those communities is fucking abysmal and always has been

never ask a woman her age, a man his salary, and a black christmas fan what billy did to agnes

[dannyelfmanstattos]

as much as I used to be a Billy Lenz superfan and how I know alot of people are as well in the Black Christmas fandom, we must remember billy is the literal embodiment of the fears and challenges women have to go through every day just by existing. like as much as i talked about him we have to remember that

Billy Lenz ( Black Christmas 1974 )

I really like this guy. I've been drawing him a lot.

[prometheist]

love having a mutual who likes one specific thing. Seeing it on my dash and thinking oh yeah it’s my Thing mutual

[loldelly]

Billy after the "attic incident"...life goes on if it ever did.

[dannyelfmanstattos]

can they please make a good Black Christmas remake please

[reee-ti-naaa]

It's been months since I browsed the Billy Lenz tag but every time I do there's always a new shitty ask blog hogging the tag and drowning out the fanart.

[redstonedust]

the fact that in the realm of fiction murder isnt really considered that big of an issue is funny to me. like yes my blorbo has killed people but thats fine thats not even a problematic character trait these days. call me when you stan a character whos mildly homophobic or a serial cheater or something. that'd be real fucked up.

Black Christmas '24 novelization so awful I keep that shit hidden
