In an interview, Eli Roth said the vibe he was going for with "Thanksgiving" is a modern remake of a lost cult slasher flick that was banned and all copies are gone with the only surviving footage being the trailer

@@mattneffI completely agree. It should’ve been set in the 70s with gritty cinematography, but it would’ve cost more because of it. The budget was only $15 mill. I’ve also heard it’s full of dark humor and satire, so I’m glad it keeps the spirit of Grindhouse cinema at least.

Dempsey breathing like Billy from Black Christmas at the begining, a killer klown knocking a turkey mascots head clean off, baking and basting a human carcass like when Billy eats his christmas cookies. The Scream vibes crashing through walls like micheal myers, throwing a hay rake as a spear like Jason. The Dinner scene towards the end also gave TCM vibes. And i mean John Carver great F'n name. All and all had a great time watching. With an 80s font at the begining i knew i was in for a good watch

We've had so many horror movies based around Halloween which makes sense, and fun twists on Christmas which is interesting like Krampus, but I don't think there are many Thanksgiving horror films. Which...Is surprising cause you would think that would be the perfect time of year to set a horror/slasher film around. Everyone in the same house together, tensions already high cause SOMEONE had to mention godforsaken politics....It would be great to see more films based around Thanksgiving tbh. The poor holiday is like the middle child; often overlooked.

I do wish they had kept the 70's/80's distorted retro aesthetic and tongue-firmly-in-cheek humor of the Grindhouse trailer. But some studio exec was probably like, "Eli, modern audiences aren't gonna wanna see a movie that looks like that!" Still, it's a good time, and it's about time we got a solid Thanksgiving horror movie because it has always felt like the one holiday that has been neglected the most. When Thankskilling is the best it has to offer, you know you're severely lacking in the horror department.

Should’ve definitely been shot in 16mm and not that clean plastic looking digital format that’s become so overused now. A film like It Follows comes to mind where it could have still taken place in modern day but just give it a retro vibe and minimise any usage of social media and phones so the technology is ambiguous.

There is a reason for this not being so grindhouse-y. This is supposed to be a "reboot" of a film that was never made. The original Thanksgiving trailer took place in the 60s I believe. This Thanksgiving takes place present day. So it's also a joke on the modernization of reboots as well. Which I found to be pretty fun.

I'm with you though I loved the setup for the movie being John Carver was seeking revenge over the Black Friday tragedy that happened the year before. That was brilliant and I also hope as an extra maybe we will get a "Grindhouse" version when the movie comes to bluray/4k.

This was actually not that bad, going in I was thinking that this would be one of those movies that sounds like a fun premise but is ultimately just a crappy waste of potential, but it was actually pretty enjoyable, I think the most entertaining thing about it are those times where you get to see the Thanksgiving style ways in which these people are killed, it’s pretty ridiculous but at the same time fun, I also thought the opening was pretty funny with this super chaotic Black Friday scene, and this is a movie that definitely knows what it is because it really doesn’t waste any time getting into the meat of things, the movie pretty much moves at a lightning fast pace and really doesn’t have any unnecessary fat on it, it’s not perfect though, I didn’t really think any of the lead characters were all that interesting, the main girl attempts to be with a very shallow setup for what’s going on with her but it just failed to engage me, and the others are just a bunch of assholes that you hate being around, and even though I’m not someone who’s bothered by gore and did find enjoyment in some of it in this movie I think that overall in terms of the gore and the meanness of the characters this movie did kinda overcook it to me, which I know is confusing because I said I do find a lot of gory movies fun but let me explain, the kind that I get more enjoyment out of are movies like Brightburn or Ready Or Not, where it’s done as quick fun little moments that keep a level of composure on things and deep down you understand that it’s meant to just be thrilling, whereas with Eli Roth’s movies he makes them in this super nasty, unpleasant fashion that’s meant to just gross you out, in Brightburn you have a man’s jaw fall off in a really gross but cool looking way but that’s all, whereas with the type of filmmaker that Eli Roth is he probably would’ve had the kid pick up the severed jaw and eat it or something because it’s just grosser, it’s fun gore vs gratuitous gore, so those moments I wasn’t too big on but when it’s a little more in the pure spectacle pocket I did enjoy it, so as a whole I did end up having a pretty good time with this movie, which did surprise me because I was honestly expecting it to be a shit fest but for what it is it’s not bad, the movie has some fun carnage, it knows what it is and doesn’t have much fat on it and even though it’s not the type of gory movie that’s usually my cup of tea this movie delivered a pretty fun time. 6/10

Someone needs to tell Jeremy that there literally is a Black Friday based zombie movie set in a store. It was called Black Friday and came out a few years ago. It wasnt great though.

You feel old? I remember seeing ads for Halloween. The original. Not really a slasher, but The Faculty is a good one. Okay, twist my arm, Urban Legends.

Same. I remember thinking the tagline (the night HE came home) was really creepy, even though I wasn’t completely sure who ‘HE’ was. Of course, I was only 10 at the time & had never seen a slasher film, so I really didn’t have much to go on.

Yep! I always think of that Final Destination 2 opening when I spot vehicles that are carrying shit that could fall out and always avoid driving anywhere near them.

I'll say the closest movies ive seen to Grindhouse style in the most recent years are Dude Bro Party Massacre 3, VFW, Mandy, Hobo With a Shotgun, and kind of the Terrifier series (though they're shot a bit too clean to feel really grindhouse imo).

I believe Hobo With A Shotgun was one of the fake trailers from Grindhouse (2007) that got the movie treatment as well.

My favorite slasher post Scream is actually Valentine (2001). This movie does take some things from that movie I believe with the way the killer is dressed and executes. Also the killer reveal is similar predictable. With Valentine (2001) the kills get creative, there's some thought put into it, I prefer it slightly. Thanksgiving (2023) has some scenes clearly resembling other horror movies from the past. It's so obvious, you can't unsee it

I saw it today and thought the same thing!!! The killer’s costume reminded me so much of Valentine. I love Valentine. It’s an extremely underrated movie and should be regarded way better than it is IMO. So many people don’t even catch onto or notice how the women in Valentine get killed in ways that reflect the things they said to Jeremy as little kids

When we went to watch Five Nights at Freddy’s with our kids they showed the trailer for Thanksgiving (I forgot about the targeted movie ads). I had to explain to a 10, 8 and 4 year old what slasher films were, and why they can watch horror but not slashers. Thanks Eli Roth, future fans in the making.

I dug Thanksgiving, but like you, I also wanted it to be a grindhouse movie like the trailer. That said, I'm sure the studio heard that idea from Eli and immediately shut it down, esp. since the Grindhouse movies were a huge bomb. It would be nice for a "grindhouse cut" to be included on the blu-ray release.

I LOVED every bit of this movie. It's an excellent slasher with very good and gory kills. I do wish it'd kept the grindhouse filter and vibe but it still worked without it. I could see this being a yearly Thanksgiving rewatch for me just like Black Christmas and Krampus are during Xmas. I love Eli Roth, which I understand he's not everybody's cup of tea, but I think this is certainly his best work in a long time.

Tying for my favorite "post-Scream" slashers are I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) & Urban Legend. I don't know if "post-Scream" is supposed to mean after that era or after Scream 1, but... they came out after Scream 1 😅
