meanwhile....at the North Pole?

unknown commotion going on at the mall. 3 Three high school kids, Dylan, Ben and Molly Shannon Kook, Alex Ozerov, Zoé De Grand Maison are doing some investigative reporting at St. Joseph Academy where 2 kids were brutally killed last year. The school also has a story of a supposed virginal conception and abortion. 4 Officer Scott Adrian Holmes who investigated the murders is together with his wife and child this Christmas. He is setting a bad example by poaching a tree off of posted land. 5 A family visits their rich aunt Corinne Conley in hopes of getting her to invest in a company. While there, the insolent teen Duncan Percy Hynes White breaks an old statue of a Krampus.The film takes place in the fictional town of Baily Downs Ginger Snaps, Orphan Black . Krampus has become the latest rage in Christmas horror films, and in that regard, this one is the best. In fact, I would go as far as to say I enjoyed this as much as the iconic "Silent Night Deadly Night." There was scene where I was lulled into a false sense of security and then they made me jump. I haven't done that in a while.This is a keeper.

time and enjoy the holidays. : ..and yeah, more than enough blood for one eve. ;

William Shatner as a DJ. All are nicely told and varied in tone. The film is really slick and well directed, shot, and edited together - especially since there were 3 directors. The dialogue is not always the greatest but heck its a horror film so its way above average for the genre. There are also plenty of nice scares.If your idea of a horror is lots of explicit gore this film is not for you - although there is enough to keep the less gore obsessed fan on the edge of their seat. The focus is spread across 4 very different sets of characters most of whom you wouldn't usually see in a horror film. The exception are the young teenagers who decide to break into their school, in order to investigate two murders that occurred in the school's basement the year prior. This story is exactly what you might expect - and no worse for it - but the other stories are all great. I can't say any more as I think this film is best watched without expectations and definitely without spoilers.A nice Christmas treat!

not horrors. For me, a horror film requires an element of the supernatural and this film delivers on that point.Is it a scary film? No... not at all. But neither is Gremlins, Rare Exports etc. And I have yet to be scared by a slasher film... gore and blood is not frightening.Is it a fun film? Absolutely. I would say this film was very much on par with Rare Exports. If you liked Rare Exports then you are going to like this film.The film itself is a Tales from the Crypt/The Monster Club type of film that loosely interconnects four tales... each exploiting four classic horror themes... ghosts, teenagers, haunted house/school, monster/slasher in the woods, strange child, zombie, bad Santa psycho. As others have said... Santa vs Zombie Elves could've been a stand alone film in itself but I think this film is well executed and delivers as it is intended... a comedy horror.

his character to life in a realistic and yet amusing way, with the dry humour we know and love. There's plenty of blood and gore for the die hard horror fans as well as an interesting collection of narratives, filled with black humour and intrigue. What a surprisingly great film!

Christmas tree. During this time, the son goes missing. He's found, but begins to act very strange. The third story is okay. A disgruntled family are forced to go visit their aunt, only to be kicked out and attacked by the Krampus. The fourth and final story is probably my favorite. Santa Claus is getting ready to go out and deliver toys to the kids, but his elves are slowly transformed into crazy zombies. It all leads up to a twist you'll never see coming and an epic battle featuring Santa vs. Krampus. If you love Christmas and horror films, you should definitely check out A Christmas HORROR STORY!!!
