This is an amazing horror film that Eli Roth has made and it should be getting more attention and it deserves a wider audience. This movie is sort of underrated, and it should be viewed higher. Great special effects, acting, directing, writing and performances. The opening sets up everything for the entire movie. I love the ending. Each kill is very violent, graphic, bloody and gory. This movie is my favorite that Eli Roth has done. Hostel part 1 is no longer first place it is now second place in my favorite Eli Roth movies. I can tell that Eli Roth cares about his fans and he listens to what his fans want and takes their suggestions into consideration while also making his vision for his movie come true. 

Actors and actresses did a great job with the material they were given. Again doesnt feel oscar winning but its more the fault of campy script writing than it is the skill of the talent...all to say that the campiness is what gives the film a bit more love than it probably deserves. 

Eli Roth’s excellent contribution to Grindhouse finally gets a feature-length expansion and I was unsure where it would initially land for me. Gone is the whole 80’s cheap slasher aesthetic and in its place is a sleek 90’s slasher look and feel. Roth isn't afraid to give us a lean and mean slasher that delivers some of best gore in his films since Hostel: Part II. Sure the story is dumb but it’s dumb in a very fun way that knows exactly what it is. 

This Clip was More Terrifying For Me :

Thanksgiving takes the obscene gore and POV shots of the 80’s slashers and combines it with the smart whodunnit feel of films such as Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. If you know me, this hits all the right endorphin spots of my brain. The finale with the killer in particular is a standout as it recreates some of the best moments in the old trailer in new/smart ways. I kept sitting in disbelief that they actually pulled it off.

Eli Roth is my favorite horror movie director and I’ve been watching his films since I was a teenager. As an adult I love his movies even more. Thanksgiving is a much watch and I highly recommend it for all horror fans this is what an Oscar winning horror movie looks like. 👍🏻
