ThanksKilling: Directed by Jordan Downey. With Wanda Lust, Natasha Cordova, Lindsey Anderson, Lance Predmore. A homicidal turkey axes off college kids during Thanksgiving break.

“Luckily this film is only about an hour long, because any more and it would get old really quickly. It is plain to see that as funny as the movie is, and as many good kills as it has, it did not have much steam to go any further.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI saw it on Netflix as a recommendation for a while and was like u0026quot;oh, heck nou0026quot; until one day when a friend of mine in Texas said it was a must-see. I gave it a chance, and was pleasantly surprised. The turkey (purportedly u0026quot;the most demonic turkey in historyu0026quot;) is so stupid, so vulgar, it is just hilarious. Hopefully that was the intent, because the acting is outrageously bad.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhat could have made this film better? Probably everything. More nudity, better actors, a plot that makes sense (the 505 years thing did not add up right, as well as why it is apparently summer on Thanksgiving). But let us not try to make sense of nonsense. Let us just be thankful for the JonBenet Ramsey joke (which seems dated, but that adds to its charm).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eUpon a second viewing, the film is just as stupid, but the stupidity came across as being even more intentional than I thought the first time. Someone here — or maybe everyone — has the mind of a genius, and they were given a video camera.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eApparently, they must have made a few dollars off of the movie, because as I type this (November 2012), there is now a sequel. Goodness, I am not sure if it could be any worse… or any better.”
