* SleeperHit: ''Krampus'' is a film with no big stars (possibly excepting Creator/ToniCollette, Adam Scott and David Koechner), a very niche aesthetic, made by a director [[Film/TrickRTreat whose last film]] went direct-to-DVD and came out on a historically slow weekend two weeks before ''Film/TheForceAwakens'' released. Despite this, the film grossed $16 million in its opening weekend and landed at #2 on the box office, beating films such as ''Film/{{Creed}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheGoodDinosaur''.
