An Original 1975 Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]; 12 pages) (Learn More) Black Christmas (released in the U.S. in 1975 as "Silent Night - Evil Night"), the 1974 Bob Clark Canadian Christmas horror thriller ("If this picture doesn't make your skin crawl... It's on Too Tight!"; "Christmas is coming early this year. And it's murder."; "Black Christmas will rock you too!") starring Olivia Hussey, Keir Dullea, Margot Kidder, John Saxon ("as Lt. Fuller"), Marian Waldman, Lynne Griffin, Art Hindle, Doug McGrath, Nick Mancuso, and Julian Reid. Note that this film was planned to be released in the U.S. as Black Christmas (as it was in Canada), but studio execs thought that title might cause people to think it was a blaxploitation film, so it was changed to Silent Night Evil Night. However, during the continuous first release, the title was changed back to Black Christmas in some U.S. areas, sometimes as a double-bill with a blaxploitation movie (which was likely intentionally deceptive)! We have seen two one-sheet posters that have Black Christmas printed on them, as well as a herald and pressbooks, but otherwise all of the U.S. posters of all different sizes have the Silent Night Evil Night title (although many of them have Black Christmas snipes over the U.S. title). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Robert Tanenbaum Important Added Info: Note that we have seen many posters from this movie with a snipe that reads Black Christmas glued over the original title (see above for more information on the title change), but material with the Black Christmas printed title are rare! Also, note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook (if the back cover is not the poster page, we photographed the interior poster page), and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners received pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut! Condition: very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It was folded across the middle. Learn More about condition grades
