Critics Sentiment
Riley theorizes that Hawthorne's bust is controlling the murders
Jesse is killed and the remaining girls are attacked
The film's lowest point during Jesse's death sequence jumps up significantly when the supernatural Hawthorne bust twist is revealed.
Black Christmas (2019) received consistently poor reception from audiences who found it a disappointing remake lacking the atmosphere and suspense of the original. While some reviewers appreciated attempts at social commentary and female empowerment, most criticized the heavy-handed messaging, poor dialogue, and lifeless direction. The film struggled throughout with predictable plotting and ineffective scares, never managing to build genuine tension or mystery.
