    This made for tv movie was exceptionally well done. I remember watching this back in '72 when it was on TV. My mother let me stay up late with her to watch it. We were shocked who the killer was. This movie is still great today.

    What a fun old Christmas slasher! And what a cast! Sally Field! Julie Harris! Jessica Walter does lots of freaking out. Jill Haworth is snippy. Walter Brennan is mean. And beautiful, beautiful Eleanor Parker....she is, well, you'll see. Wonderful score, as well. And the bonus of talented guest mask-maker Bart Frescura. Great fun. I love you "Creature Features"!

    You guys can really make this show something. With a crackling fire burning in the background, more research into the featured movie as well as more research into the guests and their work, and boom! I think you can garner a lot of inspiration from someone like Christine McConnel's shows, both on Netflix and RUclips. This show just needs a little bit of 'pumpkin'-spice and you'd be GREAT. However, I did enjoy this show a lot!*

      I have a question. What did the story have to do with Christmas? The only hint is the tree. The plot was OK - eliminate the suspects one by one - but other than that it seems they threw in "Christmas" and a fake title just to get people to watch, thinking the holiday must somehow be involved. If not for the tree and table decorations one would never even know what time of year it was.

    1969 to 1974 was the Golden Age of the made-for-television Gothic atmospheric fright and scare films on behalf of ABC then CBS and NBC as the immediate popularity of these films became obvious.
    These television fright films were a new genre niche in Hollywood.
    These films were characterized by quality presentations made within one month at low budgets. There were no expensive props nor special effects and costumes. These films frequently employed well-known theater and television actors, many long past their prime years yet still well known.
    Filming production was simplicity itself. A proper location was selected. A film crew showed up and set up location shooting. The actors showed up and wore normal contemporary clothing. They could have worn their own clothing as no special costumes were required.
    For the time period the costs of producing one of these TV movies was truly inexpensive. Given 1972 costs, a TV film could cost as low as $80,000 filmed in just three weeks.
    The low budget high quality television movie seems to be a lost art in Hollywood.
