#236 – Black Christmas (1974) | Directed by Bob Clark (with Rolo Tony)

Tune in as the Christmas season launches on 2CC! For this first episode of December, Rolo Tony (@PoorOldRoloTony) is jumping back onto the podcast to cover Black Christmas, the 1974 Christmas slasher horror film about a group of sorority sisters who are dealing with menacing prank phone calls and the dogged pursuit of a homicidal and sexually perverse stalker. The surprisingly feminist politics that this movie displays for its time, Tony advising Arthur to avoid Porky’s, Herschell Gordon Lewis and other pieces of horror cinema history, and getting dark laughs out of all the hidden sherry comprise some of the discussion for this episode.Directed by Bob Clark, Black Christmas (1974) stars Olivia Hussey, Margot Kidder, Keir Dullea, John Saxon, Marian Waldman, Andrea Martin, James Edmond, Doug McGrath, Art Hindle, Lynne Griffin, Michael Rapport, Leslie Carlson, Martha Gibson, Nick Mancuso, Bob Clark, and Ann Sweeny.Spoilers start at 46:55Create your podcast today! #madeonzencastrHere’s how you can learn more about Palestine and IsraelHere’s how you can keep up-to-date on this genocideHere’s how you can send eSIM cards to Palestinians in order to help them stay connected onlineGood Word:• Rolo Tony: Bad Santa• Arthur: The Midnight Knock by John FramReach out at [email protected] if you want to recommend things to watch and read, share anecdotes, or just say hello!Be sure to subscribe, rate, and review on iTunes or any of your preferred podcasting platforms!Follow Arthur on Twitter, Goodpods, StoryGraph, Letterboxd, and TikTok: @arthur_ant18Follow Arthur on Bluesky: @arthur-ant18Follow the podcast on Twitter: @two_centscriticFollow the podcast on Instagram: @twocentscriticpodFollow Arthur on GoodreadsCheck out 2 Cents Critic Linktree
