Weekend B-Movie Pick: ThanksKilling
Friday, December 4, 2009 at 10:23AM 
Instead of wasting time explaining my recent hiatus from doing B-Movie reviews due to my work schedule, personal issues, etc., let's jump right into this.
I found this little gem on Netflix a couple of nights ago, while bored and flipping through the "Recently Added" movie section looking for something to watch. My only complaint is that I didn't find this before Thanksgiving, as those of you who follow my Twitter know that I was looking for a good Thanksgiving horror movie, and was unable to think of one.
Luckily, ThanksKilling helps to fill that niche for Thanksgiving slasher flicks that's painfully empty. Right from the start of this movie, you get an immediate feel for the silly, gory, delightfully vulgar mood the creators were aiming for as we watch a topless pilgrim running through the woods, with the camera constantly switching from her scared face to her bouncing boobs. She trips and falls, and we're treated to the first appearance of the killer turkey who will be stalking his victims throughout the movie, as he yells, "NICE TITS, BITCH!", and proceeds to hack her up with an axe. Why is a turkey from 500 years ago speaking with a Jersey accent? How is he able to pick up and swing an axe? Who knows? Who cares? It's funny. That's the only important thing about movies like this.
The movie starts of like just about every other B-slasher flick, introducing us to our cannon fodder college students: the nerd, the slut, the quarterback, the fat redneck, and the "good girl". While on their way to their respective homes for Thanksgiving vacation, their car breaks down, and they decide to camp out in the woods, as stupid horror movie stereotypes are known to do. As in every other predictable B-horror film, the nerd character starts telling stories of an old legend around the campfire, and gets brushed off before one of the characters goes off on their own to discover that the legend is true. From here on out, we're treated to more foul-mouthed turkey kills and goofy humor. It's predictable, but at the same time, it's a lot of fun to watch, because the movie doesn't take itself too seriously. There's plenty of self-referential humor, sight gags, and cheesy gore effects to enjoy here.
For those of you who are reading my B-movie reviews for the first time, every movie I review is available for instant streaming on Netflix, and this one is no exception. You can watch it on your PC, Mac, Xbox 360, PS3, TiVo, or Netflix-enabled Blu-ray player or TV.
