Mother Krampus

I have seen some bad movies but this is the worst in my opinion. I usually can tell a bad movie within 5 min of watch time; sometimes even less. I gave this movie a chance because I liked krampus. I actually liked two krampus movies and the third one was just ok. But this, was shyt on a stick ,pretending to be a corndog. Disappointment all around. The story, the actors, the acting, the blood and gore, the special effects, the climax, the ending. I don't know how this movie is on hulu for ppl to watch. I feel like i should be refunded a year of hulu subscription fees because I was able to watched this. Hulu should have standards. Only watch this movie if you want to see the worst movie made thus far. I feel like actual middle school kids could make a better movie.

Just stumbled into this mess by accident. This movie should have been a comedy and not a horror movie, I guess they tried to rip off "the nun" but fell flat on their faces. If you wanna make cheesy horror flick that's fine with me, many classics prolly had lower budgets than this one, but why make it so bad?

The whole premise of the movie could have been good, but got ruined by horrible acting, gore effects out of a mickey mouse magazine and suspense of a snail race. Like seriously are all these actors drugged up, they watch the menace approach with stoic faces or while somebody next to them gets attacked. The kids are especially stupid and hilarious in this one. Their attempts to fight are so half assed it was laugh inducing, bad witch approaching? Splash a bowl of water into her face! She is attacking your kid? Throw an empty cardboard box at her back! The worst thing was the supposed Christmas lights that would protect them from her, next thing you know she strangles on of the dudes with a Christmas light, like Wut???

If you got time to waste, it's good for that, but don't expect to be scared at all.

Mother Krampus (2017) is a movie that I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows the story of German Urban Legend of Frau Perchta, the Christmas Witch. In a small town there's a legend of a witch in the woods who steals a kid from town every day for 12 days leading up to Christmas. The town thought they rid themselves of the witch in the 20s but when children start disappearing again they may not be as rid of the witch as they believe.

This movie is directed by James Klass (House on Elm Lake) and stars Tony Manders (The Young Cannibals), Tara MacGowran (Secret Places), Oliver Ebsworth (Nightmare on 34th Street), Sian Crisp (Rocketman) and Becca Hirani (The Gardener).

The best part of the movie is the horror background music. The horror elements are very weak and most of the kills are disappointing. There is a good back stabbing in the woods scene. The acting and dialogue are weak and the makeup used to create the witch was mediocre. The villain doesn't look anything like the cover art at all.

Overall, this is a below average addition to the horror genre that I would score a 3/10 and recommend skipping.

I guess some marketing wiz thought that having the word "Krampus" to the title might make a few folks watch it. Deceitful and shameful. This movie had nothing to do with Krampus. It was just another "scary" movie capitalizing on the horror Christmas theme.

Instead of this movie going from 0 to 60, it went from 60 to 0. It started out like it was going to be a good movie, but somewhere towards the middle right down to the end it became horrible. The story line was good, but the acting and directing started to suck, it seems like the actors lost their scripts, gave up and started improvising. The acting was bad and the movie turned ridiculous. Save yourself 1:28:45!
