Acting for most part was decent. Ambiance was not very believable as 1913 even though the tried. Very drawn out in the beginning but it was better than when we saw the monster. I refuse to call it Krampus. I dont know what it was supposed to be. I sat through over an hour (it seemed) of nothing but dialog that was questionable at times, for EVERY SINGLE death was done OFFSCREEN! Yea. Zero Krampus death scenes, unbelievable period piece and the absolute worst Krampus design. The Krampus dialog gave secondhand embarrassment for sure and the story didn't even line up with the legend. Had promise.
This movie is a terrible Christian knock off of the original Krampus I grew up knowing and loving. This movie barely introduces Krampus it is mostly talking about how he some German demon with horns who hates everyone especially children and it barely even showed Krampus , Krampus is only shown near the end of the entire film for about only 15 minutes in total , I watched this movie on Tubi Thinking it was going to somewhat be like the original film but boy I was completely wrong !!! It's nothing but a sad film trying to be something remake of a great Christmas horror film. In all honesty this movie is nothing but a embarrassment !!! ( 1 star )
So bad I couldn't get through it. I tried to hang in there but it just kept going lower and lower.
Making this a period piece was really ambitious and its take on the Krampus story is certainly creative but it ultimately falls flat and becomes a shore to get through because of its flawed execution.
Decent production values and cinematography for what it is but lacking on almost every other aspect including the writing, pacing and directing.
