Anecdotes
In 1986, Olivia Hussey met producers for Roxanne (1987), since they were interested in casting her for the title role. Steve Martin met her and said "Oh my God, Olivia, you were in one of my all-time favorite films." Hussey was surprised to find out it was actually this film. Martin claimed he had seen it around 27 times.

Sergeant Nash: [Jess has managed to keep the caller on the line for almost a full two minutes, allowing the phone company to trace the call] Uh, Lt. Fuller?
Lt. Fuller: Yeah, Nash, what is it?
Sergeant Nash: The phone company's on the other line, sir. They say they got a trace on this one.
Lt. Fuller: Yeah, let's have it!
Sergeant Nash: He says the calls are coming from #6 Belmont Street.
Lt. Fuller: For Christ's sakes, Nash, you got it wrong. That's where the calls are going into.
Sergeant Nash: That's where they're coming from too, sir.
Lt. Fuller: [pause] Oh, shit...

Générique farfelu

Autres versions
The film was released 3 different times on DVD. Each disc features a different aspect ratio. The first DVD edition from Critical Mass (25th anniversary) used the full frame format (the film was shot this way). The second DVD release from Critical Mass (listed as being just a special edition) uses a 1:75:1 aspect ratio. It was also noted that director Bob Clark approved of this ratio. The latest DVD special edition from Critical Mass (December, 2006) uses a 1:85:1 ratio. This 1:85:1 ratio also appeared on the special edition laserdisc that was released by Warner Bros. a few years back.

Not the first Slasher

I'm not sure why people keep saying 'Black Christmas' is the first slasher movie. Clearly, the films 'Bay of Blood' and 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre' we're both released first. Not to mention the fact that all slasher films owe a great deal to Hitchcock's 'Psycho'.

That being said, Bob Clark is a skilled director, and this film is one of the better films in the slasher genre. Minimal gore, strong acting, and Andrea Martin help separate this film from the million other slashers that would be released in the late 70s and 80s.
