It’s starting to heat up around here, San Diego, so we’ve decided to cool things off. On July 15th, join us for our first ever Christmas in July celebration, as we bring Bob Clark’s all time classic back to the big screen for one of its first ever reclining seat auditorium play dates. It’s BLACK CHRISTMAS, like you’ve never seen it before, at Regal Mira Mesa, on a hot summer night! Take a break from your summer vibes, and get ready for the holiday season early. We’re dying to see you.
But wait, there’s more! We’ve got The Fear Archive executive producer Cassie Jozefov joining us post-film to discuss the chilling reality behind her viral BLACK CHRISTMAS podcast episode that’s been making waves over the past few months. Get your questions ready, because we’ll cover all things BLACK CHRISTMAS film-wise, and everything related to the 1986 crimes in Massachusetts that may have been inspired by the film.
On July 15th, get a cold dose of reality. Don’t worry - when you walk out of the theater and it’ll still be over 70 degrees outside.

About THE FEAR ARCHIVE and The BLACK CHRISTMAS Episode:
The Fear Archive is a true crime and horror film podcast hosted by two best friends and screenwriters — Amanda Kagiwada and Michael Ryan Assip — who have spent years obsessing over the real stories hiding inside your favorite horror movies. Every episode pairs a horror film with a real case, asking the question the genre never quite answers: where does the fiction end and the reality begin? Usually the crime comes first and the film follows. The Black Christmas episode is about what happens when that might be reversed. Delivered with the kind of darkly funny, deeply researched chemistry that makes genuinely disturbing material feel like the best conversation you have ever eavesdropped on — and approaching half a million listens.
What most people do not know is that BLACK CHRISTMAS may have done something far more disturbing than reflect reality. It may have created it. In 1986, a teenager named Daniel LaPlante began hiding inside a family’s home in Massachusetts — living in the crawl spaces and walls, watching a grieving family from behind the vents. The following year he escaped juvenile detention and murdered a pregnant mother and her two young children. There is no confirmed evidence LaPlante ever saw Black Christmas. But the behavioral parallels are impossible to ignore — the attic hiding, the targeting of young women, the unseen presence moving through a home as if it were his own map. In true crime, fiction usually follows reality. The LaPlante case raises the darker possibility that reality followed the film.
