Krampus (2015)
A family loses the Christmas spirit, and something with horns comes instead.
Young Max tears up his letter to Santa after a disastrous family Christmas, and the shadow of Saint Nicholas — Krampus — answers with gingerbread men, killer toys, and a blizzard that traps the neighborhood. Michael Dougherty's horror-comedy keeps one foot in each world: it's genuinely scary and genuinely about keeping faith with each other.
