I found some more sources to add, though most of them are from a single website so I am gonna have to figure out how to do that properly as I had the same trouble while working on Begotten:

• EDITORIALSAn Original Final Girl: The Legacy of Jess Bradford in ‘Black Christmas’ - Has a small blurb about Billy.
• Horror Education of the Week: ‘Black Christmas’ Plenty of good stuff here
• The Story Behind the Missing Scenes in the ‘Black Christmas’ Remake
• Black Christmas Legacy (Video) - Don't know for certain if this would be worth it but any other documentaries out there on the film may prove insightful.

Finishing Things Up: Things to DO

As this draft gets closer to completion, there are still some tasks that need to be accomplished BEFORE its publication and eventual GA and FA status. The following is a list of said tasks that still need to be completed:

• "Men Behind the Killer" sub-section needs to be expanded in more detail so that it is balanced with the character's development subsection.
• The "Legacy" section also needs to be expanded in more detail, and a note added to the fact that both the film and the character's influence upon slasher films have been largely overlooked.
• Finding the appropriate images to include in the article, that would pass under GA and FA review (They should be listed on this talk page rather than included in the article just yet).
• Finding appropriate External Links.

Forgot a couple of other tasks that need to happen...

• Expand the lead section.
• Copy-editing.
• If possible and necessary, we might need to explore the novelization a bit more in detail as I have heard that it has some major differences from the film.

Accepted

I have accepted this draft. I think it could have been accepted long ago.

Please add wikilinked mentions of this article to Black Christmas (1974 film), Black Christmas (2006 film) and Black Christmas (2019 film), and add it to the template Template:Black Christmas. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 05:26, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

Done.--Paleface Jack (talk) 22:34, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:36, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Things to Add

This is both a reminder for myself and something that others can try there hand at as well, so here it goes. A book either upcoming or already published this year tells the complete history of the Original Black Christmas film and is said to be the definitive guide. Anyways either myself or someone else will need to get a copy of that and use it to add and expand this and the article on the original film. I also am going to add the recently fan made film that was released this year to the Legacy section as there are several reliable sources I can cite for that and it is significant enough to warrent adding it to this article.
