Watch Krampus: The Reckoning For Free

I love this movie so much

Thanks for the memories!

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Tormented by a troubling home-life, a lonely young girl with an unshaken belief in the Krampus figure protecting her causes a psychologist investigating a series of murders to tie the two together and soon sets out to stop the deadly creature from continuing his rampage. This one wasn't as bad as it was expected to be. One of the better elements here is the fact that the first half does a great job building up the girl and her loner tendencies in order to build her status for the rest of the film. Showing her locked in the room while the family members get attacked and her fascination with the figurine in her possession as well as the attitude she takes during the questioning, later on, makes for quite a decent build-up to the girls' condition. Once this one starts delving into the investigations both into the strange murders around town and the girls' mysterious past, tying it together to the girl's behavior makes for an engrossing time and starts the first half of this one off quite well. Leading into the attacks throughout here, from the creatures' appearance taking out the foster parents in the beginning, the encounter with the nurse in his hotel room and the drunk in the car all come off rather nicely if all done too quickly. The dream sequence showing the creature targeting her is quite chilling and leading nicely into the aftermath revelations that take place inside the house where the creature goes after them and brings about a really nice twist-ending in the hospital where the trip through the two dimensions dealing with the great revelation that's pretty nicely handled here. Likewise, the fact that there's not a whole lot of action within this yet it still remains at a nice watchability factor is a solid point here by forging the engrossing mystery about her and the connection to the deaths so that even without a whole lot happening this one is still quite entertaining and somewhat enjoyable. While these make this one better than it should be, there's still a few flaws here. One of the main flaws here is the fact that this one's so low-budget that there's just not a whole lot of appealing work in its main worthwhile elements. The Krampus himself doesn't appear on- screen all that often, and it's such utterly cheap CGI that it's hard to really feel any kind of fear from the creature with there not being much to base his fear off of. The low-budget extends to the rest of film by containing barely any action at all except for the few brief, minor kills scattered throughout here since the majority of the film is dedicated to the investigation which ends up resulting in overly bland scenes that go on endlessly in these cramped, closed-in locations that really showcase how little actually happens within this one. As well, there's never any real link here between the girl and the creature which is never quite explained here, leading to a confusing reason why he's the one selected to go out killing the people as this never seems to offer a concrete explanation for this particular creature to be here and makes it quite weird why he's here at all. These here really lower this one somewhat.Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence, Full Nudity, several sex scenes and children-in-jeopardy.

OK , to start out , i gave this movie 3 stars just because of the story. I really enjoyed it , so if it was a book i would have gave a way higher grade.The acting : I don't get how they can act that bad! Like in the first plot , when the psychologist went to the hospital they were staring at each other for like 2 minutes doing nothing. FOR GOD SAKE DON'T DO THAT!Second of all , why on earth would you add a PORN scene at the start of the movie??? And then ANOTHER ONE! God , please stop. Then the guy that was burned because of having child porn... OK , you lost me on that one. Really unnecessary , i mean you could have expanded the main story or something , but that one was not at its place.Overall , DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS!The story was OK-ish , but the rest... god please , i only watched it because i thought it would get better...

As an independent film, this is a very enjoyable horror film with a surprising performance by a child actress who plays Zoe. She does a very good job and helps make the film. This film should not be viewed and compared to high budget Industry sponsored horror films. Remember this is an independent film and as a viewer of independent films I understand this film was created with local talent and with a limited budget but it is still better than most independent films. The storyline was there and if you let yourself get into the movie with the lights off you will find yourself jumping out of your seat during the scary scenes then laughing at yourself for how the director got you.The Director did a great job and I have read some reviews by "movie critics" who tear the film apart with little if any positive statements. I never found movie critics to be a credible source of movie reviews. I'm not a critic. I'm just a guy who likes to watch independent films and ignore the professional critics. In short, this is a fun film to watch.Take note, this film is bound to be a cult classic and owning your own copy should be your goal if you are a collector. This film has something special within it. As a collector I notice that this film has an emerging upcoming director, a new child actress who will soon jump from the independent films industry to main stream high budget industry entertainment and I feel the writer, like many writers, has a yet to be written blockbuster script. That is why I feel this film is the beginning of three major film icons yet to be discovered (A Director, an Actress and a Writer). In five years you will come back to this review and say, "Wow, he was right" Then you will kick yourself for not acquiring an original copy of the film.It is interesting to note that this year there have been three Krampus films released in November and December of 2015. One by William Shatner which I find to be more of a comedy based on its previews, then there is the second Krampus film I found to be more about a spoiled boy who hates the world. "Krampus the Reckoning" is better than the other two and is a true Holiday Horror Film. A great stocking stuffer,

I am not going to call it awful because the story was pretty good, but the acting was terrible. The lead female with her droopy sad eyes, became annoying to look at just like that big bald guy with the ugly smile who looked like Daddy Warbucks. This story is interesting but so unbelievably rushed at the end. Some parts of this movie made no sense. Maybe it is just me, I dunno. I did not love this movie or hate this movie. I am somewhere in between. I think if the acting was better I might have enjoyed this movie a whole lot more. Regardless, if you want to see a movie with bad acting and ugly actors, this is the movie for you.
