Reviews
Krampus received mixed reviews from critics. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 66% approval rating, with the consensus being 'Krampus is gory good fun for fans of non-traditional holiday horror with a fondness for Joe Dante's B-movie classics, even if it doesn't have quite the savage bite its concept calls for'. IMDb rated the film 6.2 out of 10, praising the dark humor and practical effects but criticizing the pacing and predictability. Metacritic scored Krampus at 49 out of 100, stating 'Krampus is held back by a lack of tonal balance and some scares that may have been effective in a less winking, more deeply ironic horror movie'. Despite some shortcomings, the film gained a cult following for its unique take on the Christmas horror genre.
