Krampus (2015)

Ready to get an early start on Christmas horror? This is a good place to start!

A boy is depressed, losing his Christmas spirit, and that's when all hell breaks loose. Well, not right away, but after his grandma tells him a spooky tale.

It's the slow-burn type, so the 1st half is all talk, but the second half is quite special. It surprisingly worked, despite some offbeat casting, such as that manager guy from Waiting. In any case, stay tuned for that ending! 7/10
