Grimmfest presents: Krampus at Manchester Central Library

Krampus (2015)

Grimmfest presents: Krampus at Manchester Central Library, Manchester 12 December 2018 Tickets from £6 — Book now

It’s Christmas, Grimmfest style, as the horror movie specialists present alt-festive fave, Krampus. 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.
