‘Krampus’: EW Review

RetrospectRealm|11 years ago|Cinema

EW: If you love Gremlins but don’t feel like rewatching Gremlins, consider Krampus a worthwhile diet caffeine-free alternative. Adam Scott and Toni Collette star as a blandly upperclass Mom and Dad to a teen daughter and a son just old enough to still believe in Santa. Trouble arrives in threes: There’s Mom’s sister (Fargo breakout Allison Tolman) and her uncouth family; there’s the apocalyptic snowstorm that cuts off all communication to the outside world; and then there’s the Krampus, the mythic anti-Santa who punishes you for being naughty and nice.
