And as he had for thousands of years, Krampus came not to reward, but to punish. Join PJ and Derek as they explore how Michael Dougherty transforms seasonal cheer into claustrophobic dread in Krampus (2015). In this episode the guys unwrap the film’s blend of dark humor and folkloric horror, break down its spectacular creature effects, and discuss how a story about family dysfunction spirals into a full-blown winter nightmare beneath the shadow of Saint Nicholas. 📺
