I'm Salutations, welcome to Pod Mortem.

I'm Renee Hunter Vasquez, joined as always by my co-host, my husband, and my brother.

Hi, I'm John Paul Vasquez.

Hi, I'm Travis Hunter.

This week, we're recording live

from Muchomart discussing the 2015 holiday horror film, Cranpus. Cranpus was directed by

Michael Doherty. He also wrote the film with the help of Todd Casey and Zach Fields. This film is

an exploration of the dark side of Christmas, further examining the German legend

of Cranpus.

Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, Cranpus has become a holiday staple for many

horror fans.

This film was recommended to us by friend of the show and when to go get her patron, Kristen

Lofton.

Kristen does very insightful book reviews on Goodreads, so go follow her and check her out there at goodreads.com slash Kristen Lofton. Thanks, Kristen. So, what did you guys think of Crampus the first time you saw it?

I don't remember the exact, like, date or whenever we watched it, but I remember we watched it here, of course. I mean, we watched a lot of movies here. Yeah.

But I really liked this movie.

I really liked it.

I remember watching it and being like, oh, this is good.

You know what I mean?

It's a fun little take on the whole story and everything.

Yeah.

I think that's probably the most important word with this film is fun.
