Went to see Michael Dougherty's holiday horror flick "Krampus" last week and loved it.
Here's my review over at AIPT.
Despite the dark and serious marketing, it's actually a family-oriented horror film, appropriate for the older kids. That's not a knock against it, as it's still really enjoyable. The abundance of practical effects over CGI was a major selling point for me, too, and all the monsters look great.
On the TMNT front, I've got another review of the 1987 cartoon coming next week. Also have TMNT Amazing Adventures #5 to review my way through (it came out last Wednesday but haven't been able to get to it yet).
