All right, I’ve been lazy with the blogging and just settling for posting videos…
… and here’s another one!
I.
CANNOT.
WAIT.
One of my exes introduced me to the Krampus legend about 15 years ago, and I always get excited when I see him pop up in pop culture. I LOVE that they made a movie about it.
It looks pretty decent – I like the comedy dynamic of the cast (Adam Scott, David Koechner, and Toni Collette!) before the weirdness sets in. A commenter on another board said it looked like this generation’s Gremlins, which is another of my family’s strange, unconventional holiday traditions.
If you don’t know who Krampus is, let me enlighten you!
Fancy pants, indeed!
The first time I heard of Krampus was in an episode of Grimm – I’ll have to watch for this movie!
I have heard good things about Grimm. Do you recommend it?
I do – sometimes it gets a little melodramatic, but i love the fairy tale and folklore characters that get woven into each episode.
Noted. I will try to check it out!
I second the recomendation on Grimm, although I wish they’d move back toward their season one formula a bit and away from the stuff about the Royals. Very complicated plot lines and such.

OH MY GOD. Your pics of this event are AWESOME. *reads, absorbs, faints*
Thanks! I wish I’d gotten closer, but it was wicked crowded and the streets were narrow.
