Storyline
When his dysfunctional family clashes over the holidays, young Max
(Emjay Anthony) is disillusioned and turns his back on Christmas. Little
does he know, this lack of festive spirit has unleashed the wrath of
Krampus: a demonic force of ancient evil intent on punishing
non-believers. All hell breaks loose as beloved holiday icons take on a
monstrous life of their own, laying siege to the fractured family's home
and forcing them to fight for each other if they hope to survive.

There are 3 types of movies: 1) movies good enough to watch from beginning to end without fast-forwarding; 2) terrible movies where you can't suppress your urge to fast-forward through them; 3) godawful movies where you realize even fast-forwarding through them would be a waste of time.
Acting: homeless people off the street couldn't be worse.
Dialogue: cringeworthy (and that's being generous).
Suspense: none.
Scariness of the monster: looks like they bought it entirely from Walmart, including the mask. Even a junior high kid could make a better costume (and a better movie).
Quality of the kills: even the average Found Footage is more graphic.

Movie Reviews
Kraptacular...er...I mean Krampus the Christmas Devil is in the number 3 category. I started ff-ing 30 minutes in then by 68 minutes I just decided to turn it off. I just said, "Nah, I can't watch this piece of garbage. I have better things to do with my time, like watch water boil." This movie is the very definition of amateur. It looks like the director got an camera, went to his local roadside bar and said, "Hey guys, I have a camera. Wanna make a movie with me?" They asked, "What's in it for us?" He replied, "Free beer." Then they said, "I'm in." Seriously. I 100% believe that's how it happened.Acting: homeless people off the street couldn't be worse.
