Here Are The First Photos From Michael Dougherty’s ‘Krampus’

Briefly: We’re just four months away from the release of Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘r Treat follow-up, Krampus, so I’m actually pretty surprised that it’s taken until now for the film’s first photos to release.

In the film, “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.”

Trick ‘r Treat is probably my favourite Halloween-themed film, and I would be absolutely thrilled if Legendary and Dougherty could do the very same thing for Christmas.

You can take a look at the first few photos from the film (via USA today) below, and let us know if you’re excited for the film! Krampus hits theatres on December 4th!
