AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Michael Ledo This film is not a sequel to other Krampus films. The story centers on Zoe Eliza Weaver (Amelia Haberman), foster child in Arizona. Her mother Katie Hoelzer (Carrie Fee) gets $500 a month to care for Zoe, "the blond haired devil child" and does a bad job. Zoe has the power to unleash the Krampus who punishes bad people and does. Rachel Stewart (Monica Engesser) is a child psychologist who becomes fascinated with Zoe. Rachel was memory flashbacks in bad dreams about the Krampus.This is your typical 80's style horror film, some horror, some nudity, and a twist. Good movie if you like that type of production.William "Bill" Connor plays both the bartender and the Krampus.Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Monica Engesser, Carrie Fee both- sex and shower)
Bogdan OK , to start out , i gave this movie 3 stars just because of the story. I really enjoyed it , so if it was a book i would have gave a way higher grade.The acting : I don't get how they can act that bad! Like in the first plot , when the psychologist went to the hospital they were staring at each other for like 2 minutes doing nothing. FOR GOD SAKE DON'T DO THAT!Second of all , why on earth would you add a PORN scene at the start of the movie??? And then ANOTHER ONE! God , please stop. Then the guy that was burned because of having child porn... OK , you lost me on that one. Really unnecessary , i mean you could have expanded the main story or something , but that one was not at its place.Overall , DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS!The story was OK-ish , but the rest... god please , i only watched it because i thought it would get better...
hampton061 As an independent film, this is a very enjoyable horror film with a surprising performance by a child actress who plays Zoe. She does a very good job and helps make the film. This film should not be viewed and compared to high budget Industry sponsored horror films. Remember this is an independent film and as a viewer of independent films I understand this film was created with local talent and with a limited budget but it is still better than most independent films. The storyline was there and if you let yourself get into the movie with the lights off you will find yourself jumping out of your seat during the scary scenes then laughing at yourself for how the director got you.The Director did a great job and I have read some reviews by "movie critics" who tear the film apart with little if any positive statements. I never found movie critics to be a credible source of movie reviews. I'm not a critic. I'm just a guy who likes to watch independent films and ignore the professional critics. In short, this is a fun film to watch.Take note, this film is bound to be a cult classic and owning your own copy should be your goal if you are a collector. This film has something special within it. As a collector I notice that this film has an emerging upcoming director, a new child actress who will soon jump from the independent films industry to main stream high budget industry entertainment and I feel the writer, like many writers, has a yet to be written blockbuster script. That is why I feel this film is the beginning of three major film icons yet to be discovered (A Director, an Actress and a Writer). In five years you will come back to this review and say, "Wow, he was right" Then you will kick yourself for not acquiring an original copy of the film.It is interesting to note that this year there have been three Krampus films released in November and December of 2015. One by William Shatner which I find to be more of a comedy based on its previews, then there is the second Krampus film I found to be more about a spoiled boy who hates the world. "Krampus the Reckoning" is better than the other two and is a true Holiday Horror Film. A great stocking stuffer,
twomainiacs The first reviewer has been watching too many 10 star horror movies (is there such a thing?).Never ever judge a movie by the reviewers....you might miss something that is not a typical B-Movie Horror Flick.Krampus is just that kind of movie. I have almost every Creature Feature Flick that I can ever hope to download. I have the bore you to death to "where did that come from" movies. Krampus is one such movie.OK...it is definitely low budget...but what B-movie isn't!!! The acting is a little wooden but presentable for not having one headliner actor at all.The plot will surprise you...it actually pulls you along. The Creature doesn't act as well as it looks...and it looks great. I wanted more of the Creature....but alas. The ending could have cleaned things up a little better, but it worked.The creepy little girl thing has been worked over timelessly. Yet...big surprise here...I love creepy little girls. And for you tata lovers....The movie has something for you too.I give all B-movie Horror films a 5 star rating if it absolutely doesn't suck. Try this one for size. Would love to hear how you felt about it. Q(:-}
