Thanksgiving - Movie Review

[@joemathewson4198]

Just went and saw it last night. A fun movie. Campy but it knew what it was going for. Didn’t try to be too serious. Just fun. And the gore was done well too.

[@MellowMutant]

I really liked it

[@MutaScale]

Just a fun time all around. Yes, the characters aren't the best, but they were acted fine enough (really my one complant), but I loved this film. Also, glad to (slight spoiler, but nothing to ruin it) see both my favorite character McCarty (the gun selling rocker guy) and the cat lived. XD

[@meatball5336]

The gore was done well indeed. And some of the gore was....well done....😎

[@Johnlatner]

The only bad gore was the intestines

I loved this movie. It felt like one of the early 2000s remake that were full of gore and over the top camp.

[@MellowMutant]

Yeah

[@facundobatto]

This movie was fun, a rare thing nowadays. Has a very 90's slasher vibe, with a thematic 80's title. Really great movie.

[@tysaylorphoto]

[@billg3356]

This movie was a hoot. It's more of a 90s style slasher than the 80s one that was promised with the original Grindhouse trailer, but it's a blast. I saw it opening day, but the theater was empty. I think it would play like gangbusters with a packed house. Go see THANKSGIVING! Go

[@korn2040]

it was soo good watching it with the theater packed to the brim. it was awesome to hear everyones reactions especially during the jump scares what a fun movie!!

[@user-xv1sr3uy7p]

Sadly not many people are going to see it bc this movie is going to be on streaming in a couple weeks probably lol

[@harmonlanager2670]

I remember the director said he was going for the vibe that the movie you’re watching isn’t the one from Grindhouse but more like a remake of a lost slasher. So I guess that’s why it’s more 90’s than 80’s

[@greatestnitemare6626]

Hmm why was it empty? Maybe because the movie was cheeks? It's so bad.

[@Jixzl]

What's the difference between an '80s style and a '90s style slasher?

[@cinefiend4059]

Really loved that Eli went campy and hilarious alongside the gruesome kills. I wouldn’t mind seeing multiple sequels for this too.

[@SSuillin]

also enjoyed that Eli, lets face it he could be even more smug however he does usually deliver the goods, includes his voice in this one

[@Goldenreindeer]

It was a fun slasher, perfect tone, right amount of gore, great cinematic pay offs. I had a blast with this one.

[@greatestnitemare6626]

The word that kept going through my mind when I watched this film is "confidence." Eli Roth knew EXACTLY what he wanted to do, he knew just how to do it, and he did it beautifully.

[@joshjacks2837]

Blood Rage (1987) was the best serious Thanksgiving horror film before this came along. I can see good word of mouth carrying it through the Thanksgiving weekend.

[@ryanguerra9266]

“That’s not cranberry sauce Artie!”

[@chrisb8193]

Yeah….and Blood Rage fucking sucks. At least now we have an actual good movie to watch on Thanksgiving.

[@AshesGhostin]

I WOULD actually consider “Thanksgiving” a slasher masterpiece. It’s layered. There’s a backstory there. There’s character development. The chase scenes are incredible. It’s exciting. Great unique kill scenes and gore. It’s the total package. Eli Roth HAS given us one of the greatest “slasher movies” of all time. Now I’m just hoping we can get a future “Scream” movie from him one day 🤞🏼.

[@SSuillin]

I think Kevin williamson can still be relied upon Ashes, I did end up enjoying Scream vi more than the film before it. But all these influencer themes too and streaming in horror is not for me, even though I really enjoyed Thanksgiving

[@TrupimOkiemTV]

I was thinking the same thing

[@IccyTheOne]

​@KoraJayde-TeeJayI guessed who the killer was early in the film but only because the movie gives you hints along the way. In fact the move outright TELLS you who the killer is in the first scene.

[@captainhowlerwilson508]

It is just a crazy movie. It is not masterpiece like older horror movies. It still has a lot of the same problems I have had with a lot of recent horror movies. They just want to shock you and they don’t bother developing all the characters, leaving a lot of them except for a few main ones to be just story fodder.

[@jacobross735]

@KoraJayde-TeeJayI don’t see the hype behind this movie I found it to be pretty boring and the acting was horrible. Maybe I didn’t find the kills is a gruesome as they were supposed to be after watching terrified 1&2 lol

I like how even tho this is a traditional slasher film, there is a lot that makes it feel modern. It being set in the present day, the use of technology and phones throughout the movie driving the plot, and the humor felt down to earth and not out of touch as most movies do

[@jackfisher9573]

Weirdly enough, over in the UK it's been quite well advertised in cinemas and quite a few people I speak to have either gone to see it already or are going to see it! We went Friday night and the cinema was busier than usual which was a welcome surprise for me 🤘

[@jscott4reel]

Saw this yesterday and was thoroughly satisfied. Truly Thanksgiving with all the trimmings!

[@shirleygilchrest2187]

Your review was spot on. My husband is not a horror movie fan but was intrigued by the trailer, so he went with me, and we both really enjoyed it, there was a pretty good size crowd in our theater and based on their reactions they dug it too! We both knew what choppy scene you were talking about right away because we talked about that on the ride home. It will be an annual watch at Thanksgiving for us!

[@Spiralredd]

Definitely felt like the scream movie we didn't know we needed. Fun as hell and a great watch.

[@visualpr3cision]

I found myself smiling from the opening scene to the closing credits. Especially with the jabs at society today, the Florida jokes (I’m a FL Native) & the jabs at dumb young people and their “content/social media and cell phone addictive ways” . It captures a 90s slasher vibe with a plethora of characters who could be the killer, a high school class facing peril, and a relatable motive for the antagonist. The kill scenes are all top-notch, earning a solid 10/10, with a perfect blend of creativity, gore, blood splatter, and more gore. The Black Friday and parade sequences are standout moments, eliciting cheers from tonight’s audience. Noteworthy are the elite decapitation scenes and a sequence reminiscent of Heath Ledger’s Joker in The Dark Knight. For a modern-day slasher, it doesn’t get much more enjoyable than this. WITH THAT SAID, the ending sucked. It was almost like they didn’t know how to end it or what to do with the killer so they just said...okay let’s blow this up and roll the credits. Literally. So before that, I would of gave the movie a 7.3/10 but because of the ending my score is a 6.5/10. Definitely go see this in theatres. Super fun! Definitely one I’ll own in my physical media collection. R.I.P. Tim Dillon🩸🪓🦃🍽

The thing I always appreciate about (Who done it, Slashers) is rewatching the movie and seeing all the small hints to which character it is. Especially in this movies case, as each victim and target did fuck over the killer in some way which I appreciate, it doesn’t just feel like the killer role was forced on a character just because. I just love those kinds of details, it’s one of the reasons the original Scream is so good

Yes, this movie was awesome. I agree on the scene late in the movie where one person moved so quickly to another spot. There is no context to how much time passed but it kind of made me think there was no way the person could be the killer. Nonetheless, it was a solid movie and hopefully it becomes a franchise.

[@DarthDimadome]

We need each holiday to be accompanied by a tent-pole slasher flick with a simple holiday title. Halloween and Friday the 13th obviously have one and now so does Thanksgiving. But I want "Christmas", "Easter", and "The 4th of July" too.

[@tylerskeen8091]

I imagine this is how some might have felt in 96' watching Scream opening night or in 78' with Halloween. THANKSGIVING is so aggressively over-the-top, but at least it knows & embraces it. Eli Roth’s slasher film features some of the most gruesome & hilarious kills of the year. Silly & absurd B-movie horror that can be a killer good time if you’re open to it. He really blessed us with one of the best slashers in modern memory, hilariously over the top blood soaked carnage! To think that the premise for the thanksgiving theme around this goofy holiday slasher was originally just teased as a fake trailer teaser from the “Grindhouse” double feature by Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez’s infamous 2007 feat is quite impressive. 🦃 🍴🔪🍽️ Thanksgiving feels major. It's definitely the slasher of the year, but I mean looking back, it's the best in years. A new classic ripped straight out of the golden age of slashers. I felt like I was watching the culmination of someone's life work. Roth has said many times that he's been wanting to make this movie since he was 12, and I could feel every bit of that passionate energy jump off the screen. It felt like Roth was emptying out all of his pockets and throwing out all of the tricks that he had been saving for years. Every other moment felt like it was attempting to one-up the last. This flick is filled to the brim. I have no idea how the rest of the world will receive this film, but this completely blew me away. Thanksgiving was everything I wanted and more, Roth completely delivered on all fronts. I can only predict it will be trashed and forgotten like the rest of Eli Roth's work, but perhaps just maybe others will agree with me. If you’re a horror fan and love slashers give this one a try, the trailers didn’t do its full justice. 🔥

[@CRUELLANDER]

Loved this film. It’s a 10 out of 10. I mean it’s not just a horror holiday film, it’s secretly a comedy as well. It’s such a mouth open, fun, and funny film, it does not disappoint, and it’s pretty short which I like because most movies, mainly superhero movies which they just abuse the runtime and it drags to when it comes to the climax it’s just boring. I hope it becomes successful and we get multiple sequels to this film as well, because it’s fun, I’d watch it a million times.

[@erinslankard9273]

Agreed the continuity in the 3rd act when the final girl escapes the dinner scene realizing she’s in the historical barn set, runs through the woods while pursued by the killer, but finds the sheriff suddenly knocked out and bloody didn’t quite work.

[@caseylamoreaux8479]

Speaking of Thanksgiving, Chris should review the movie where they go back in time to the 1st Thanksgiving to get turkeys off the menu. That's right; They go back in time to the 1st Thanksgiving to get turkeys off the menu.

[@Do0msday]

I'll be getting this when it comes to bluray. I love horror/slasher movies that are...fun. This is the perfect movie to watch between Halloween and Thanksgiving. I really wish this had come out a week or 2 earlier because my schedule is swamped, but oh well. It looks really good and word of mouth seems to be strong. This absolutely 100% looks like the sort of movie that will become a fixture to watch every year and I'm really impressed with Eli Roth for actually going through and making this. My fingers are crossed so hard for 'Borderlands', but most video game movies don't really pan out, but we'll see.

[@darkwriter_xx94]

I really enjoyed this. I also liked that it revolved around Black Friday and not the actual holiday. Not many horror movies make me react physically but more than once I threw my hands up in shock.

My wife and I saw this over the weekend. Overall we enjoyed it, specifically for the kills. They are very entertaining and hilarious. Gory as usual for Roth. I was shocked to find the gasps behind me when the killer was revealed. Maybe I'm old and jaded and too much of a horror and mystery fan, but it was VERY obvious from the opening of the film who the killer would be. Certainly not going to spoil it, but I mean, come on. It was revealed to us in the very beginning. Also, just pay attention to who's mysteriously missing when the killer is around. That is even enough to figure out who dun it. Anyway, it's a fun movie. I'm glad it exists, but I'm kind of hoping it doesn't become a tired franchise.

But yeah man, what you said about the marketing !!! OMG there is such a bigger conversation here, I just stumbled upon 3 movies that were released in November with decent names attached and I just discovering them now? The marketing is feast or famine. As a filmmaker you shouldn't need access to 100 million dollars for people to hear about your NEW MOVIE...but apparently this is the reality for advertising. You could do a whole video on the films that didn't get fair releases. Random thoughts, peace.

[@veeseee128]

Slasher horror movies are fun to watch. Just dont take them seriously. This movie reminds me of "Terror Train" from 1980. Where a psychopath takes revenge on those who played a crude joke on him. So he kills them one by one on a train that is holding a costume party. This takes place a dark snowy winter night. The ending was kinda weird though.

[@taurinstraiter2325]

I watched this movie on Thursday. I recognized some scenes that were I almost wanna say "copied" from other movies. If you've seen Thanksgiving 2023 and know about late 90s to 2000s horror you know what I'm talking about. The killer looks and executes similar to the killer in Valentine (2001) in my perception, more so the look when I think about it (bye the way, Chris you need to rewatch that movie and make a review for Valentine's Day), the plot twist is similar predictable. There is one scene straight out of "I know what you did last Summer (1997)", another scene straight out of "Saw II (2005)", then one scene out of let's say "The Texas Chanisaw Massacre (2003)" and the final act, the climax and the ending, are also reminiscent of other horror movies.

[@shebreathesingold8043]

You can say copied because that's what it was. The parade scene you mention from I Know What You Did Last Summer wasn't even subtle. It wasn't just the setting, but the whole concept behind the scene. I find storytelling like this incredibly lazy, and it did this over and over. It was kind of embarrassing. I feel people who are impressed by this movie cannot be actual horror fans who watch a lot of horror because you'd immediately know how derivative and unimaginative it was.

[@lumityviktuuristanartist4100]

Omg , I don't watch alot of horror movies but I KNEW it was so damn similar to valentine and I know what you did last summer , literally it's not much of a difference but even then , those two movies were so much better than this , they were fun , had good story telling and fun characters even if they make dumb decisions

For anyone, who's wondering whether to watch this movie or not, TRUST ME its a must watch! Its unfortunate that imdb has rated it so low but don't always rely on it, the story of the movie is awesome and suspenseful. The duration of the movie is perfect as well. The only downside is some of the deaths seemed a bit exaggerated but it pales in comparison to overall score. A solid 8.5/10 from me! Its worth every penny. Just remember its not for the people who get easily disturbed

My friend and I used to go out and spend all night going from store to store on black Friday. They're done with all the 24 hour stuff, and many stores don't even change their hours now.

One thing I really loved about this movie was that because of how tactical and planned out his actions were, the Carver felt like a comic book supervillain, in the vein of the Joker.

I just saw this film, I enjoyed it a lot. The theater I went to was a smaller size theater but it was packed, glad to see people came out to watch it

It is curious that there aren’t a lot of Thanksgiving Movies. There are however, a lot of Transitional Holliday Movies that jump from Thanksgiving into Christmas and New Years, but those are mostly and purely Christmas Movies.

Funny, my KZbin has been FILLED with ads about this movie for basically a month now. I’m surprised you didn’t know it was coming out.

Ive been waiting 16 years for this.

My brother and I just got home from seeing it and we absolutely loved it!! It was SO fun!! My brother is a SCREAM guy and I’m a FRIDAY THE 13TH guy so if those are your jam, you’ll love it too. Cheers!!

This movie is super fun and the kills are great. And yeah there were some things in the final act that were a bit sloppy but I wasn’t expecting this movie to be a masterpiece so it is what it is. If you need a good ol’ fashioned slasher this is definitely a treat.

I saw this with a friend who grew up near Boston and he cracked up constantly when the solid character actors laid down the comical MASS accent so satirically.

Eli Roth was on the TigerBelly podcast, that’s how I found out about it ! Can’t wait to watch it .

The "teleport" part I also fell that something was off, but it made me think how fun would be, that for a sequel, it's revealed that they had someone else helping them with the killings

I know what I'm gonna do as I'm eatting my dinner. It looks like a fun one ty Stuckmann. Happy Holidays all!

I found it reminiscent of I Know What You Did Last Summer, just a gory version of it.

I remember listening to Kevin and bean on kroq over a decade ago now when they would have eli Roth on, begging him to make this movie. He would come on the show always promising that it will happen one day. Glad to see that that day is here.

[@sirdropbeartv]

Roth even said if he stopped filmmaking he would be happy because he finally made this. It's a great slasher

Been a fan since 2013 of your review for Movie 43 I had to see if others thought it was as stupid as I did and you didn’t disappoint 😂

[@LeonardoDiCapri-Sun]

This film didn’t really grip me the way I hoped but I definitely appreciate the imaginative kills

As an American who does not give two craps about Black Friday for the reason that all it does is show how demented and selfish we are in the sense of having to be number one and willing to cause death over it at your local Walmart, I SUPPORT THIS MOVIE! THERE SHOULD BE MORE MOVIES LIKE IT! I give this movie five stars!
