Double-A
Formerly known as KingOfTheWild.
I'm not normally a fan of the contemporary horror flick, but I think that it is an interesting idea for a horror movie and it could be good, if done correctly. For those who don't know, the being known as 'Krampus' is a 'horned, anthropomorphic figure who punishes children during the Christmas season who have misbehaved'. Krampus is a part of German-speaking Alpine folklore. 'The origin of the figure is unclear; some folklorists and anthropologists have postulated a pre-Christian origin for the figure.' (I got my information from Wikipedia)
The first horror movie that the director of this movie (Michael Dougherty) was involved in was not well-reviewed. It received an average rating of 4.4/10 from critics on Rotten Tomatoes, and 2.8/5 from audiences. However, his next horror project (Trick 'r Treat) was well liked by critics and audiences alike. It received an average rating of 7.4/10 from critics, and 3.6/5 from audiences.
Apart from the above-mentioned horror movies, Michael Dougherty was also a screenwriter for X2: X-Men United and Superman Returns. He is also listed as a screenwriter for the upcoming X-Men movie 'X-Men: Apocalypse'.
