On a cold, dark, snowy Christmas Eve we find Ben & Sarah Hamilton, a very unhappily married couple planning to spend their last holiday together before separating, but this plan quickly changes as a simple dispute escalates into a full-blown physical fight, which leaves Sarah dead by the hands of her Husband. After dismembering and disposing of the body, Ben believes his nightmare is over, but in fact, his nightmare is just beginning as a spirit comes to him and reveals that he has awakened ancient evils from pre-Xmas folklore. Now, Ben must fight to survive or die at the hands of an organ-stealing witch, cannibalistic elves and the ultimate demon of Christmas – Krampus.
The Krampus Carol is written and directed by Jake Zelch, whose previous feature – The Haunting of Mia Moss – is hitting film festivals this summer. Aaron Yorgason co-write the film, which stars Helene Udy (My Bloody Valentine), Brinke Stevens (The Slumber Party Massacre), Luc Bernier (Shriek of the Sasquatch), Dawna Lee Heising (Garden Party Massacre), Donna Hamblin, Erin Felts and Dalton Cash as Krampus.
