"THANKSGIVING" BRINGS GOOD FUN BACK TO SLASHER FILMS

πŸŽ₯🎞️Movie Review🎞️πŸŽ₯ - THANKSGIVING [2023] - R - NetFlix - Directed by Eli Roth. Written by Jeff Rendell. Starring Patrick Dempsey, Rock Hoffman, Nell Verlaque, Addison Rae, Milo Manheim, and Gina Gershon. Budget $15 Million.

Following a disastrous "Black Friday" event on Thanksgiving night, where hundreds of people were trampled or bludgeoned to death and changing the future lives of so many families, some mysterious murders begin to befall the small town  of Plymouth, MA that shake the very foundation of the towns once tranquil nature. Each murder that follows are released via video steaming on the internet and the police, plus a local high school student [Verlaque] find themselves in a "who done it" slasher series scenario.

THE GOOD - The development to all the characters is perfect. Some of the new slasher attacks are creative and many are cringe-worthy and well performed to give the viewer the right reaction. The pacing and editing keep the movie moving along and all of the new actors [at least that I noticed] are worthy of receiving high kudos for their performances. The veteran actors were used sparingly to help the youngsters move the film along in the right direction, and misdirection, for plot delivery. But I have to admit that the Black Friday event was just SO hilariously perfect and chaotic at the same time!

THE BAD - There's not much to note about this film having bad moments. There is one death scene that is just too far fetched and the amount of blood being squirted around was just beyond hilarious and poorly designed.

POST MORTEM - I could have watched an entire two hour film on just the Black Friday melee alone. There were some really good moments in the film where I was just like, "Don't go there!" and trying to help the next victim get away. This was a fun film and even thought I figured out the killer and his motives before the halfway point in the film - not bragging - I continued to watch the film and enjoy the directors vision of the story line he helped produce.
