Description: After a Black
Friday riot ends in tragedy, a mysterious Thanksgiving-inspired killer terrorizes
Plymouth, Massachusetts, the birthplace of the infamous holiday.
Review: “Grindhouse” consisted of two B-movies, but Quentin Tarantino and Robert
Rodriguez. It had a fake trailer for a movie called “Thanksgiving”, a slasher
film with 1980s appeal made by Eli Roth. And now, the movie is real.
A department store decides
to start their Black Friday as early as midnight and promises free products for
the first hundred customers. The result is bloody mayhem. A year later, a group
of survivors are tagged in a bizarre message on social media. One by one, they
begin to die.
Director Eli Roth turns a
fake trailer into a real movie. And I got exactly what I was hoping for. I love
slasher films, they are fun. A bunch of awful people being brutally murdered
and we are trying to find out who the killer is. That’s what this is. Roth
doesn’t do anything groundbreaking. What Roth does do is making this film
bloody as hell. And it’s not even his goriest film. Roth manages to pull off
some real original kills. And it has some good humor as well.
Even though I did predict
the eventual killer, “Thanksgiving” is an entertaining slasher. What you except
from it, you get.
Rating: 3,5/ 5
