Krampus (2015)

David Koechner is the worst but the movie is okay over all. I think the elements that look visually dark and twisted are awesome. Everything with gingerbread men and David Koechner and just all the goofy stuff is garbage.

thought this was OK, but not sure what audience was being targeted here. It's not funny so isn't a comedy, it's not scary enough to be a horror, it's too childish to be for adults but too slow and sweary to be for children.because of this most of the movie is pretty bad, it just doesn't know what it's doing, but it's got a good cast and everything looks good. with a decent script this would have been good, but because there wasn't much of one and whoever wrote the screenplay has done an awful lazy half ass job, you just have a movie that looks good, people are good, but everything that happens is just a waste of time, and if it wasn't obvious enough the story was the most lazy movie writing ever, then comes the ending... which is just stupid and the epitome of laziness. shame as they could have made something really good here

No, it's not 7 as in compared to other movie greats, but I do think it safely earns an entertainment value of a 7 compared to other Christmas themed movies. While there are definitely obvious plot flaws, the flick has enough drama/plot twists to keep it interesting in order to say - "gosh, what the heck happens now?" This is a dash of National Lampoon's Christmas with a bigger serving of Gremlins. And if you remember Gremlins or care to watch it again, you can spot plenty of plot flaws in that flick too, but it went on to be a Christmas classic. I can point out plenty of opportunities where Krampus could have been directed better, but, hey I enjoyed it, it kept my attention to the end, and I can not say that for about 75% of movies I have seen in recent years. I am guaranteed to zone out from watching poorly acted or badly directed movies. For the most part, the acting was excellent - except for the dad, who was not well cast. I know I'll be watching this on occasion at Christmastime especially if ever there's a good snowstorm brewing!
