Episode 158: Eli Roth's THANKSGIVING (MONSTEMBERFEST)

Matt and Trevor are deep in the Holiday leftovers as they serve themselves a diner slice of pumpkin pie along with an appropriately themed holiday horror film in the Nighthawks’ MONSTEMBERFEST!The holidays are a time for family, togetherness, mercy, charity, blood and guts as we remind our listeners that spooky movies aren’t exclusive to Halloween! This time around, we have Horror director Eli Roth delivering on a movie idea he introduced us to in 2007. Part of the slate of phony trailers in the Quentin Tarantino/Robert Rodriguez “Grindhouse” presentation, THANKSGIVING is a slasher movie that is looking to carve its way into your annual traditions.However the movie that we were advertised in 2007, and the movie that was released in 2023 are two completely different animals, and it seems like Roth may have done it that way on purpose.It’s a Thanksgiving holiday hangover that can only be cured with a little booth time at the Nighthawks diner.
