Viewing Notes

Not the biggest “krampus” fan but I do like a good Christmas horror flick. Plus I am pretty stoked to see another movie by Mike Dougherty. Early buzz has been good so expecting an enjoyable time.

Had a blast with this mash up of Christmas Vacation and Gremlins in humor and tone. Really nails the holiday spirit and had me really feeling Christmas by then end, which I wasn’t expecting. The visuals are terrific. I love the snowmen and eerie snow world. Definitely a movie that lives up to the promise of an effective christmas horror that would be fun to watch with others.
