Krampus Origins (2018) is a movie that I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline takes place shortly after World War I when a military officer finds an artifact and is killed shortly after. The artifact is sent to his widow who happens to run an orphanage. When the kids at the orphanage accidentally summon Krampus, the widow and orphans will have to try and stop him. This movie is directed by Joseph Mbah (Battlefield 2025) and stars Maria Olsen (Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief), Anna Harr (Hot Seat), Amelia Haberman (The Covenant, 2017), Katie Peabody (Lear's Shadow) and Dustin James Leighton (Exit to Hell). This is not a good movie. The attire and settings are okay, but the acting and dialogue is very average. The plot drags and doesn't have enough horror scenes; but when they do have horror sequences, they are average and disappointing. Even the background horror music is average and Krampus doesn't look like the cover. Overall, this is a movie that gets stale fast and stays there. I would score this a 2/10 and recommend skipping it.

Recently Watched the original Krampus for the first time with our 12 year old son. He loved the concept and the characters that much we decided to download this one. To say we were all disappointed is an understatement. We found the storyline tedious and incredibly boring. Even our twelve year old was bored to tears. We made ourselves watch until the end. Some of the acting was good, (and knowing the film was low budget we tried to give some leeway) despite this we could not give this movie more than one star. Personal opinion- avoid at all costs, it's an hour and a half of your life you'll never get back.

Making this a period piece was really ambitious and its take on the Krampus story is certainly creative but it ultimately falls flat and becomes a shore to get through because of its flawed execution. Decent production values and cinematography for what it is but lacking on almost every other aspect including the writing, pacing and directing.

So bad I couldn't get through it. I tried to hang in there but it just kept going lower and lower.

This is the third Krampus film written by Robert Conway. The first - Krampus: The Reckoning - was reasonably entertaining, but had a really bad CGI Krampus. The second - Krampus Unleashed - had a really dumb script, but at least gave us a practical make-up FX Krampus and lots of gore. For most of Origins, which has the worst script of them all, I was wondering whether the film even had a Krampus: it takes an age to get to the monster, and it really isn't worth the wait. The first half an hour of the film tells how a magical book with the power to summon the Christmas Devil comes into the possession of schoolteacher Josephine (Katie Peabody), who has started working at a Catholic school for orphans in Arizona. This part of the film could have been wrapped up in less than ten minutes, but then the film would have been barely over an hour long (which would have been fine by me). The book gets into the hands of one of the school kids, who translates the ancient German text and summons Krampus, which manifests itself as a surly looking kid called Nicholas, who turns up on the school's doorstep at night and is taken in by the nuns. There's not an ounce of the trashy fun of the second film, director Joseph Mbah aiming for either 'classy' or 'atmospheric', but missing both by a mile. He does, however, hit 'boring' and 'tedious' without difficulty, making the first two films seem like masterpieces in comparison. After an hour of forgettable, uneventful drama, we finally get to see Krampus, and a more crappy creature it would be hard to imagine: a man painted black wearing a horned helmet and with cheap-looking After Effects glowing eyes, Krampus just stands there, talking in a stupid demonic voice, ending each sentence with an extended, deep, guttural sound that is more laughable than terrifying. After threatening to devour their souls and destroy the world, or some such nonsense, the pathetic monster is defeated by Josephine, who is protected by a handy amulet and who has conveniently been learning ancient Germanic languages as a hobby, thereby enabling her to read from the book and banish Krampus back to hell. 1.5/10, rounded down to 1 for using the font Helvetica on the school blackboard, a typeface that wasn't designed until several decades after the film is set.

WW1 ended in 1918, Novembre 11. for your information. There is no way that ww1 was still happening till december. If you want to make a movie get your facts right and hire better actors. Couldn't even watch the movie because of it's inaccuracy.

Apparently the makers of this film only looked at the cover of a "Krampus: for dummies" book. The movie is extremely slow and must have had a 2k budget, but what really made this a 1 star review, is they only made a movie about an ancient demon with horns that hates kids and they mentioned twice it happened to be Christmas. They don't seem to know what Krampus is at all.

At the end of WW I, the new teacher at an orphanage finds that a lost trinket sent by her husband from the war has been used by the curious children living there to summon the mystic demon Krampus who begins a deadly rampage at the location forcing them to band together to stop the creature. While it does have some flaws, there are some positives here. The most likable element present is the rather nice backstory throughout here, which manages to include some intriguing real-life connections. The opening in WW I, with the soldiers shown infiltrating the German bunker to stop the creation of the creature as the scientist attempts to bring it to life, gives this a solid lead-in to the scenes at the orphanage where the same materials infiltrate their grounds starting up the creature's return. This is all handled rather nicely here as the build-up of the life at the orphanage as well as how the introduction of the summoning artifact to the building takes place provides a pretty intriguing start to this one. Once the introduction has been handled, this one does pick up rather nicely as the terror of their newfound visitor carries a lot of weight. With all sorts of strange maladies and physical interactions caused by his presence while in human form introduced at first, there's a nice setup present here that gives way to the creatures' attacks in the final half of the film. As the creature starts to get more involved with chasing down the kids and the other staff members, the darker lighting and mystic fog that sprouts up offer somewhat creepy images as the creature walks through the dark corridors trying to stop it while the occasional flashes to the group preparing their own vigils against it. These here are what hold it up over its flaws. The main flaw in the film is that the low-budget nature of this one shines through rather prominently, giving off a pretty overwhelming tone throughout here. The few soldiers used to denote the war taking place, the singular location of the orphanage and the utterly awful CGI used for the Krampus which looks like cut-scenes from a video game all come off truly apparent of what it's like here. The bland pacing and overly cheesy storyline don't help much, and there's a pretty blatant series of simple sets where it's placed at just hamper this one down as well. The other problem here is the sloppy and utterly underwhelming finale, which has no real bearing on the storyline brought up previously as the inclusion of mysticism and spell-casting is just lame, and the flat-out abrupt ending is simply jarring with the way it's handled. These here are what hold this one back. Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Language.
