1621, Native Americans have placed a curse on the pilgrims by using native magic to create a demonically possessed turkey that promises to wreak vengeful havoc on the white man until the curse is able to be broken. You heard about the first Thanksgiving. You've seen the timeless photos of Native Americans sitting down to a feast with the English Puritans who aren't able to cut it in the new world. But what happened after dinner? After all, there was no big screen TV to loosen the belt in front of while downing some brews to college football. Well, ThanksKilling fills in those gaping holes in American history. Get ready for some carnage. And folks... this film promises to be one he*l of a turkey! A bare breas*ed Puritan (ain't nothin' more pure than that) runs through the woods, scared shi*less from something presumably Indians. Not so much. She s got a homicidal turkey on her tail and that turkey is out for blood, but oddly the axe doesn't fall before the turkey compliments her brea*ts. Kinda ironic that a turkey should be a brea*t man. Cut forward to present time and five college kids (the most mismatched bunch of buddies you've seen) are headed out of school and to Thanksgiving break, which, from their excitement you'd think was Spring Break. Meanwhile, somewhere in the middle of the woods, presumably not far away, a Collie dog named Flashy (Lassie's younger cousin?) traipses about the woods with his redneck owner and pis*es on some Indian relic in the woods, subsequently raising the dead and getting the hatchet from that nearly 400 year old turkey (As a note, the film claims Tom Turkey is 510 years old. But my math says that 2009 minus 1621 equals 388. So someone missed math class somewhere along the way). Not for nothing, but anyway you do the math that's a long time to hold a grudge. When the kids break down on the side of the road, they decide that instead of trying to get help (nice to see no one has or uses their cellphones), they should break out the tents and booze it up right where they broke down. Sadly for them it s a full moon, and with Tom Turkey on the prowl it s going to be on long night for some of them it s going to be their last! Listen folks, when it comes to Thanksgiving horror the pickin's are pretty slim. ThanksKilling is a film that no matter how good or bad it is will automatically find itself into every annoying holiday list cra*ped out by a wide variety of film sites, simply because there's no competition. I'm not knockin this. I'm just sayin . But is it really worth your time? That depends. Overall, this is a pretty flaccid, albeit slightly entertaining pic that has some mildly redeeming points, if what you're into is schlocky B-grade horror a la Tromaville. There were a few things that pleasantly surprised me, though. There's not much to comment on regarding the acting. It s pretty much what you'd expect from a film called ThanksKilling. But what I did like is that we at least get a few entertaining characters, who, despite the cra*tastic acting and flat delivery of lines that are delivered with the total enthusiasm of Ben Stein reading from a teleprompter, are somehow likeable, or at least laughable. Natasha Cordova (that hussy Ali) really stood out above the pack, and not just because of her perky brea*ts. Her commitment to the role of dumb sl*t really filled in the cracks surrounding the characters we were supposed to be following. And it's sad to say, but Darren (Francis) would have made a better final girl than Kristen (Anderson). The homo-erotic overtones kept the comic relief in full effect whenever Ali didn't get a line edgewise... (continued online at Brutal As Hell) --Brutal As Hell

Of course judging by the title we can easily say that this was not very serious.....a killer turkey?....Hell yeah i need to try this!!. The reviews i've read on here didn't disappoint. Like the cover says, its mostly a comedy or a horror/comedy kinda film but they did a good job. The acting IS cheesy of course..but again..i think it is done on purpose, which makes the movie even more hilarious!!...its cheesy but in a good way...a funny way....
I was surprised to see the cinematography.....i thought it would've been more than simple and was hoping for the worst like "camera on shoulder" kinda thing or a really cheap camera but no, i was surprised, the quality of the picture definitely exceeded my expectations....for only 3500$ i think this was well done! They must've had lots of fun making this.....The turkey itself is very funny and has some hilarious lines in the movie (yes the turkey can speak!!...and also drive cars!...lol)
If your not afraid of bad movies and you wanna have a good laugh don't hesitate to try it!!!...if you already did...please note that YOU JUST GOT STUFFED!!!! ...THE BEST WORST MOVIE EVER!!!!!
ENJOY!!!!!

Ah, yes, nothing says Thanksgiving like a "fowl"-mouthed demonic turkey spouting one-line zingers as he goes about killing every white person he comes across. If you see only one movie this Thanksgiving holiday, it probably won't be ThanksKilling - but maybe it should be because this little film has everything a cult-worthy bad movie should have: a completely ridiculous story, woefully bad acting, low-budget special effects, some decent portions of gore, the best tag line in years, bad math, a director who embraces the opportunity to stoop to any low he can think of, and - of course - an evil turkey. Not just any turkey, mind you. This Tom can slit your neck, nail your girlfriend, and steal your car in a barnyard second, and he's also a master of disguise. If ThanksKilling had just thrown a cheerleader into the mix, I would have been in bad movie heaven.
I know what you're thinking: what could drive a turkey into becoming a serial killer? Well, it all started back in 1621 with the Puritans. On that very first Thanksgiving, the settlers somehow offended one local Indian so deeply that he placed a curse on all white people and "necromanced" a turkey to be the agent of his vengeance. They say he returns every 505 years to wreak further bloody havoc , and wouldn't you know it - according to the one character familiar with the legend, it has been exactly 505 years since 1621 (there's that bad math I was referring to). Clearly, a good time will not be had by our five clueless college students heading home to party down for the week.
There's really no point in me explaining the plot of this movie, but I have to recommend one scene in particular - and that's the one where the turkey pretends to be sheriff. That's when you know without a shadow of a doubt that you're watching one of the dumbest movies ever made. It's enough to make this reviewer all giddy with excitement. No cliché, stereotype, or bad joke is safe around the makers of this film. Forget the pumpkin pie this year - a viewing of this hilarious film makes for the perfect Thanksgiving dessert.

My co-workers and I have watched this movie several times and we're still laughing our asses off. The creators are geniuses who have made a true gem of a movie. You would never guess that this was made with as low a budget as it was; the special effects are quite good and the camera work is exceptional. It both satirizes traditional horror movies and brings in some clever gimmicks such as having Turkey,the villain, swear up a storm and also disguising himself as if he were on a cartoon. The scene where Turkey opens the door to let the kids in while dsguised as the Sheriff (the father of one of the girls) and everyone says hi to him like he's the real person is absolutely hysterical. This was worth every penny it cost and we enjoyed it more than a lot of bigger budgeted movied in the theatre. Bring on the sequel, we'll be in it for free ! A++++
