‘Thanksgiving’ Red Band Trailer – The Humans Are the Turkeys in Eli Roth’s Holiday Slaughterfest
Based on his fake trailer from the Grindhouse Double Feature (2007), Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving is finally a real movie, and IGN has debuted the brand new Red Band trailer today.
Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving comes exclusively to theaters on November 17.
Watch the official Red Band trailer for Thanksgiving below, which removes the Grindhouse-style filter of grime that was applied to the original faux trailer back in 2007. What we’re getting with the actual Thanksgiving movie is a slick, modern slasher set in the present day, but it seems clear based on this trailer that Eli Roth isn’t leaving any of that ’80s gore behind.
Thanksgiving looks like a return to Roth’s gory roots, introducing a cast of attractive young actors and then brutally slaughtering them one-by-one like Thanksgiving turkeys.
It may not be the 1980s anymore, but who says we have to leave the good-old-fashioned slasher movie behind? This Thanksgiving, ALL will be carved. And there will be no leftovers.
The film, an expansion of Roth’s faux trailer seen in Grindhouse (2007), will be released in theaters worldwide by TriStar Pictures and Spyglass Media Group (Scream).
In Thanksgiving, “After a Black Friday riot ends in tragedy, a mysterious Thanksgiving-inspired killer terrorizes Plymouth, Massachusetts – the birthplace of the infamous holiday.”
The cast for the feature length slasher movie includes Patrick Dempsey, Addison Rae, Jalen Thomas Brooks (“Walker”), Milo Manheim (Zombies), Nell Verlaque (“Big Shot”), Gina Gershon (“Chucky”), Tim Dillon and Rick Hoffman (Hostel).
Roth wrote the script with Jeff Rendell. Roger Birnbaum and Eli Roth are producing.
Fresh off the last two Scream movies and this year’s Abigail, the filmmaking trio known as Radio Silence is next setting their sights on a project titled The Robots Go Crazy.
Deadline reports that the action-comedy package has landed at Amazon MGM Studios, with Radio Silence directing the film and Andy Samberg (Palm Springs) starring.
Deadline notes, “Plot details are unknown other then it being described as an action comedy.”
Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett will be directing for Radio Silence.
Andrew Lanham is writing the screenplay and will also executive produce.
Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett will produce with Andy Samberg and Ali Bell via The Lonely Island’s banner Party Over Here, along with Radio Silence’s Chad Villella, and Silk Mass’s Jon Silk. Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone will also produce for Party Over Here.
