My quick rating - 2,5/10. Time to get this last one out of the way in what I am sure is another #turkey Who the hell wrote this one? Origins, have they never heard the Krampus story at all. Instead, we have some weird demon that has existed longer than humans YET its job is to punish the children...Ok, we again have a new tale of the Krampus myth and at least this time it does deal with Germany however here it is some Nazi chanting nonsense to start off while reading a book and stroking his necklace. Then all the soldiers end up dead and the belongings of one soldier are sent back to the states, including a book and necklace. So that is how the demonic possessions make it to Arizona. Guessing that is where it was filmed, no other real reason. What follows is about an hour of life in the 20th century at some orphanage. The usual story of the kid being bullied and the kids defending him. And then at one point, I believe the low-budget biopic makers decided to jump into horror and throw Krampus in. So after this decided switch, one of the nurses ends up summoning Krampus, and then the true b-budget shows. I am a big fan of low-budget making waves with creative use of cameras, or quality gore even but this flick does absolutely none of that. Krampus is some dude standing there in a school project-made mask. The kills are more or less making people vanish (naughty or nice doesn't seem to make a difference) with some Buck Rogers style lazer gun effects. I'll spare you of the acting since you know damn well it is non-existent. In a nutshell, out of all these flix, the 2015 Krampus is the only one worth your time in the slightest and as far as I know, I have now seen all of these. Hopefully you have NOT.
