Yule love this one (eye roll)
Listen, some weeks just feel better than others, don’t they? And this, this was a good week. Progress in advocacy cases, uncovering forgotten details for new storytelling, clients retreating into their holiday bubbles. This morning, we’re basking in the glow.
If you’re in the mood to bask in a slightly different glow, one with a faintly greyer undertone, we’ve got the piece for you. This week,
penned us a little tale of premature burial. All hail our macabre queen.What Kennedy Watched
Krampus (2015)
Is it a new film? No. Is it even a good film? Subjective.
In another life, I co-hosted a horror film review podcast, and Krampus was the second movie on our docket. I still remember the day I watched it for the first time—snowy yet cheery, early yet sufficiently vaped (of the Canadian, legal, “garden” variety). My co-host was not a huge fan, our listeners were split. And all in all, I think everyone who isn’t me was wrong.
Krampus is a straight up romp. It’s silly, it’s campy, it’s Christmas without all the sentimental bullshit. Pour yourself an eggnog, gather the family ‘round for a seasonal watch, and enjoy the sparkle of murderous gingerbread and Krampus, the German demon sent to punish the naughty children.
Trust me. (Or don’t).
Love,
