Horror icon EliRoth is about to direct his next movie, Thanksgiving, based on his fake trailer from Grindhouse -- and fans are eager to feast upon this film.
Horror icon Eli Roth is just about to begin directing his next scary film, Thanksgiving, and it’s been a long time coming. Roth had filmed a fake trailer for this make-believe movie as part of director Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino’s 2007 double feature, Grindhouse. The trailer itself acts as a parody of classic holiday-themed horror movies like Halloween and Black Christmas, and though Grindhouse was very much a turkey in theaters, fans couldn’t get enough of Roth’s fake film.
It’s the stereotypical slasher origin story in the vein of Michael Myers, which fits with the film’s parody/homage of Halloween. However, since the killer’s backstory was written many years ago, it’s unknown if it’ll stay the same for Thanksgiving‘s more modern film adaptation. Nevertheless, the Pilgrim should continue to serve up many creative and memorable scares to make a lasting impression on audiences with his frightful holiday feast.
Excessive gore and violence Roth has been infamous for stuffing explicit content into films like Cabin Fever and Hostel, the latter of which was credited for starting the “torture porn” subgenre. Fans of Roth’s work should expect to see more of the director’s brand of bloody content, and Grindhouse has already given them an idea of what they might see.
There’s even a brief shot of the Pilgrim “stuffing himself” inside the turkey with the decapitated head right at the end of the trailer. Hopefully, Roth’s actual film will continue to revel in its silliness to create a humorous and self-aware story that audiences can enjoy.
