    Black Christmas? Is that what that was? What is this about cookies? Billy who? I don’t remember learning who the killer was in the original. If you are going to take the time to continue the backstory of the original why wouldn’t you make it the same backstory? 15 years? That movie came out over 20 years ago! What is going on????
