Black Christmas

Universal Studios/Blumhouse received a backlash after the first trailer was released for the film due to the extreme amount of spoilers within it.

When hiding in the cleaning closet upstairs, Riley breaks a mop to improvise a weapon from the handle. There obviously were two different filming sessions for her going down the stairs because the broken end of the mop handle changes. When filmed slightly below her (slightly looking up at her) the broken end of the mop handle is more blunt. But when filmed above her from behind (looking down at her) the broken end of the mop handle is more elongated, more pointed, and threatening.

MID-CREDITS SCENE: Partway through the credits, there is a scene where Claudette the cat is licking the black substance bleeding from one of the pledges, and then she looks up at the camera.

The original R-rated version of this film ran 111 minutes, before being edited down to a 92 minutes long PG-13 version released in theaters.
