Bit of a slog tbh, but the ending had me on the edge of my seat! The whole plot however was quite far flung.

For your typical domestic thriller, there was way more Krampus content than expected. Despite that (or because of?), this was fine! Reminded me of the movie, Ready or Not, which I loved. Weird rich family murdery bullshit. Not bad.
