“Roth has always been an enigma to me. Heu0026#39;s clearly got the eye for sheer brutality and putrid gore. He knows what buttons to push and create throwback style horror . But then on the other side of the ticket, his overall stories suffer from dull plots and fizzled potential. None of his films aside from the Death Wish Remake awhile back have been fully effective IMO until Thanksgiving.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHe takes a concept that was conjured up for a bonus trailer styled element within a different movie from 16 years ago with Grindhouse. You wouldnu0026#39;t think the concept could translate to a full feature length but it really does . He does his best 80s slasher impression that actually feels legitimate and not forced. A new age potential iconic slasher is introduced and will absolutely be a new staple of horror genre.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe setting is ambient and perfect for the theme and provides a great visual feast. Roth has upped his game in making sure all attention to detail in presentation is covered and even implements a more complete film. The brutality is unleashed and doesnu0026#39;t hold back along with disgustingly fun gore. The cast is also shockingly well put together which is rare in most horror now.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOverall a new age holiday themed classic that shows what Roth can offer with the right amount of focus and time. And remember ….be thankful.”
