ThanksKilling (2008)

So much average

Admirable film.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

This movie was one of the most horrible I have ever seen or heard of. It tries to act like a "so bad it's good", but it's really "so bad it's horrible". The jokes and puns aren't funny, some even offensive (they reference the Jonbenet Ramsay case TWICE, while failing to be funny both times). I've heard better puns in Foodfight. The characters also act like complete idiots to the point where you just want to slap some sense into them. The turkey is clearly a puppet, and not a convincing one. It felt like it would take forever to end. The acting is also incredibly wooden. Not recommended.

If you're a fan of other cultish movies and if you dig absolutely terrible/hilarious horror films, you need to watch this. I don't actually think i've laughed so hard at a movie in a long, long time. The soundtrack of this movie is good enough on it's own, but when you combine it with unnecessary nudity, horrible actors, a ridiculous/amazing plot line and of course a bit of toilet humour, it's difficult to hate it at all.The only downfall to this movie was the fact that it was only 70 minutes long, you kinda' find yourself panicking as it gets to the end because it feels too soon.The only people who would hate this movie are the ones who actually take it too seriously, do not, for the love of God take it seriously or you're gonna have a bad time.So, if you're ready to watch a demonic axe-wielding turkey hunt people down while using the best puns and one liners, this has to be watched.Gobble gobble motherf--kers!

Well, I'd saved this title on Netflix streaming to show the title to a friend of mine. I'd totally forgot about it until one night, she and I were looking at titles in my que and there it was flashing before her eyes. She told me to stop and let me see what's that about. So we both decided to watch this... At first I made a joke about this surely must be a Bob Guccioni (Penthouse Publisher - sp?) production. Then Turkie made his appearance... In as little as a line, my friend grabbed my arm and said, "Did that turkey just cuss?" From then on there we were dying of laughter. It took us about 3 1/2 hours to watch the movie as we kept rewinding to be sure we'd seen what we saw. There is so much silliness in this movie; it couldn't be true. We'd recommended it to a few of our horrible movie friends. All of are of the same conclusion... It's the best bad movie of all time.

in some movies brevity is the movie's saving grace. a film that would be terrible at 100 minutes is quite tolerable at 87 minutes. at a mere seventy minutes Thankskilling is brief but not quite mercifully so. The movie begins to recycle it's own out-of-date pop culture jokes somewhere along the thirty minute mark. This should tell you where it stands at 70. The acting is amateurish to the point of annoyance. The plot stupid and poorly thought out. The special effects are bad, but not bad in a good way. Those hoping for an Eli Roth style Thankgiving will be sorely let down. Generally a movie like this would throw in generous heaps of female nudity to make up for it's utterly slipshod nature. not so here. The silly horror Jack Frost does this same thing a million times better. Don't bother.
