Get Ready to Gobble Up Some Gore This Thanksgiving: Eli Roth is Serving Up a Sequel!
Buckle up for a blood-splattered Turkey Day because Eli Roth is bringing you Thanksgiving 2! The man behind those ultra-violent horror flicks like Hostel and Cabin Fever is going to inject more gore and mayhem into those festive festivities. In case you haven't already heard, Thanksgiving is the slasher film from 2023 where, if you didn't get the hint from the title, things get real brutal during that iconic Turkey Day feast.
Roth is bringing back those classic horror-movie vibes we've missed, adding a super creepy and graphic touch to those Thanksgiving traditions. Yeah, think about those scenes from the original film: the blood and the screams as some slasher just shows up in a rural town during the holiday. It wasn't really new to the horror world but Eli had some amazing ideas for those slasher scenes, using every bit of horror he had. We're talking blood splatters, amazing gory effects, the whole works. Thanksgiving 2 is gonna bring that same terrifying intensity with tons of blood, more scary scenes, and even maybe some new traditions - I hope!
What We Can Expect in Thanksgiving 2
Fans have been chomping at the bit since Thanksgiving dropped, wondering when (and if) the story would go deeper, so let’s face it, Eli totally saw those excited fans and decided to give us a big surprise! There isn’t much known yet about the details of the next Thanksgiving but one thing we know: it will be bloody. So buckle up and get ready to see what Roth throws at us, because it might involve those pilgrims (and maybe some new, equally savage characters, with a side of crazed Horror!
It’s gonna be fun!
Thanksgiving: The Story
If you haven’t seen the original film, the plot focuses on a big family feast turned super violent and scary as a slasher shows up with that deadly Pilgrim attire (I mean, come on! What are the odds a horror flick with Pilgrim themes is not going to be insane? And the result is a bunch of gore. It seems Roth knows what he's doing. Fans have said it is definitely worthy of the man behind the "Hostel" and "Cabin Fever" series.
Let's just say things in "Thanksgiving" were more about the screams and less about the pie. The slasher scenes were shocking in how well they depicted the intensity and brutal mayhem, but the film kept fans wanting more. And, we don’t have long to wait for this crazy next chapter in “Thanksgiving”. That's why a Thanksgiving Sequel was a perfect idea – the world needs more horrifying Thanksgiving events!
Will Thanksgiving 2 Become Another "Cult Classic"?
Honestly, who isn’t a sucker for a good holiday horror flick? They've always been a part of film culture - like, remember those iconic scary movie trailers we'd watch during the Christmas season, hoping for a good jump scare. Now, imagine a "Thanksgiving" sequel - a wild ride with crazy horror! We have those gore-heavy scenes from the original Thanksgiving Movie, and that same energy from Roth. I mean, he has always done so well at building the intensity! He has never been afraid to really dive deep into that disturbing stuff and build an incredible movie around the craziest plot lines. “Thanksgiving 2”, in other words, has got a solid track record – something we can all trust!
Even if it’s not everyone's cup of tea, Thanksgiving was so unique that fans are likely going to show up for Thanksgiving 2. They already love that kind of gore - think those blood splatters and how it is totally the most impressive horror flick released so far, and this sequel is going to be just as good.
The Big Mystery of Thanksgiving 2: The Premiere
We don’t really have any idea yet when it is going to come out – I mean, when’s the best time to release a holiday-themed horror flick? We know “Thanksgiving” took place in November, and there was no better time for a slasher-movie plotline. Even though Eli Roth hasn't said exactly when this sequel will drop, there is a pretty strong chance it’s going to show up before the Thanksgiving of 2024 (you’d want everyone to see it before the season was over), so start keeping those ears open!
The horror world's got big hopes for this new addition. We can expect some really creative plotlines, an even more intense slasher, and maybe a bit more gore. Imagine watching the most creative new additions, like maybe they get those amazing Pilgrims to face off against some kind of zombie army (totally plausible!), all before everyone sits down for a traditional meal. Now that’s what I call a really good time for those hardcore horror fans! We can't wait to see what the season holds for those creepy pilgrims and the next “Thanksgiving”!
