Movieweb has posted a video on YouTube (below) mocking six silly Thanksgiving horror movies. Oddly, their selection includes Eli Roth’s faux trailer Thanksgiving which isn’t a feature but was one of the fake trailers filmed for the Grindhouse (2007) double-bill of features. And is now a 2023 film box office hit, of course.
Plus, they missed out the splattery Thanksgiving slasher trash classic Blood Rage (2007) with its hilarious “not cranberry sauce” dialogue. That has to be the no.1 movie to enjoy when you’re boozed up and tired of turkey, trimmings and family chit-chat.
Here are Movieweb’s six choices in reverse order:
THANKSKILLING (2008) Reviews and overview
And much as we love the zaniness in Thankskilling (just avoid the awful sequel), its comedy is very hit and miss so our suggestion for Thanksgiving horror fun is still Blood Rage!
