Why Thanksgiving (2023) Lost Its Grindhouse Edge

In this episode, we dive into Eli Roth's Thanksgiving, a holiday slasher inspired by classics like My Bloody Valentine and April Fool's Day. Known for its over-the-top gore, the film trades the gritty charm of its 2007 Grindhouse trailer for a polished, modern aesthetic. Did Thanksgiving lose its edge in the transition to a full-length feature, or does it offer a fresh twist on the slasher genre? Join us as we explore the film's highs, lows, and its place in the horror hall of fame. NEWSLETTER and UNCUT REELS!!!!!
