Thanksgiving Horror Flicks

Article by Anthony Cleveland

Easily the top faux trailer from 2007's Grindhouse was Eli Roth's brutal and hilarious holiday-themed slasher, Thanksgiving. It was the most anticipated and hopeful trailer to actually materialize into a full-blown feature. There was some promising hype from Roth, but nothing was ever set in stone. The latest update was from last year: "I have a draft I'm not totally happy with," Roth told reporters in an interview. "I want to put some more work into it so the film lives up to the trailer. We have the story and mythology cracked so now it’s about getting the kills right.”

We're still waiting, and there's no update from Roth so far this year... We're sure it's still on his thoughts, and we'll definitely continue to wait with fingers crossed. In the meantime lets check out some Thanksgiving-ish films to hold us over.
