Black Christmas (1974) 50th Anniversary🧵 begins here. I consider this film a cinematic masterpiece of terror, creepiness, & humor. It's so much more than a simple horror/slasher film. It took me multiple viewings to appreciate everything this film has to offer, & what follows is a labor of love

Truly one of the best little Canadian movies ever made.
It's set in Florida and features John Marley, but police calls referencing Dovercourt Road and a diner playing Stompin' Tom Connors gives it away:

~ Thirty More Novels for #Noirvember ~
Day 25: A KILLER IS LOOSE (1954)
A pacy, gripping ride-along noir in which the story’s hero gains the unwanted friendship of a maniac. For those who think a Gil Brewer novel without a femme fatale is like sex without foreplay, this will set you straight.
