Summary
When his dysfunctional family clashes over the holidays, young Max (Emjay Anthony) is disillusioned and turns his back on Christmas. Little does he know, this lack of festive spirit has unleashed the wrath of Krampus: a demonic force of ancient evil intent on punishing non-believers. All hell breaks loose as beloved holiday icons take on a monstrous life of their own, laying siege to the fractured family's home and forcing them to fight for each other if they hope to survive. A torn family come together for the holidays, but they're so busy fighting that they've lost the holiday spirit. When a boy writes a letter to Santa, but gets mad and rips it up, he summons something much worse. Now, they will have to make amends and stay together and fight for their lives. Their faith is at stake.
