The fact that eveytime Joseph says Price Mart and the screen flashes to the correct name of the store Right Mart I’m ☠️💫
I give Eli Roth props for at least trying to do something different because we know what we're in for. He's campy and fun which i appreciate.
"Only seasoned with murder" I almost spit out my tea! You guys are the best!
😂😂😂 the Black Friday opening scene was accurate, funny and crazy combined
The Trampoline Kill is an homage to Roth's fake Thanksgiving trailer he made for Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's Grindhouse in 2007. That's why it feels out of place because it is more of an Easter egg for those who watched Grindhouse. The movie is based on that fake trailer. Great review as always.
I remember watching that back when I was 18 and that trampoline fake preview still hurts my crotch, just the whole thing where she's about to jump right on the knife has been forever burned into my mind every time I see a trampoline
Best kill was the cob holder. Too bad it was spoiled in the trailer
Mascot decapacitation too
It's what made this happen folks 😅
Exactly
This movie sounds more like a horror movie about Black Friday than thanksgiving because people involved in a black Friday riot are being killed. So it shouldve been called Black Friday: Bloody Revenge 😊
I never thought it was Bobby since he was so short compared to the killer.
Everyone was praising Addison Rae’s performance and Joseph says “the girl who has nothing to do but be pretty” 🤣🤣🤣
I thought she did a pretty good lines. She said her lines naturally without all the woodiness. I saw clips of her in another movie, and she definitely did better here than in that one. And she was the main character in the that one.
“So scuba the 40-year-old highschooler”
LMAO joseph is so damn funny
The second they named who the cast was prior to filming, I placed my bets on Patrick Dempsey being the killer 😂
Lol Nick looks like he absolutely cannot be bothered 😅
I love it ☠️
I just got back from seeing it with a friend tonight what a delightfully gory time! Figured you guys would have a review out
A pregnant 61 year old Gina Gershon got me done ALL the way up
😂😂😂
I’m still not over it. 😂
The way my eyes rolled in the theater😮
😮😮😮 😂😂😂 😮😮😮 now daayum. I did go look (61) OMG 😂😂😂😂
I just finished watching the movie and have been trying to search online to see the acknowledgement of her being pregnant at that age😂
I just don’t understand how the Sheriff was at two places at once. He was outside talking to a fellow cop but also inside the school kidnapping the jock and his girlfriend and then he was at the parade in uniform and then walking in the parade in a clown costume? 🤔
It was a poorly written and executed movie. There was no logic or consistency. You just had to accept things as fact because the scene said so. It's fucking lazy as hell.
"One of the crunchiest moments" 🤣
We're bringing crunchy back!
Some clarification on the reason why Patrick Dempsey was all bloody next to the cop car (spoilers). He had abducted Bobby and threw him in the back of his cop car. He opened the trunk to dress him in the killer’s clothes to frame him, but he woke up and hit him with a tire iron. And that’s right before Jessica finds him.
His character clearly spells that out…. Some people just don’t pay attention
“I’ve seen the inside of a body” omg 🫢 Joseph is the killer guys
I need to know why Joseph has seen the inside of a body. WHY.
@@AlansNewMutant He might’ve done something with cadavers.
The people he killed where really not all that randomly selected from the people that were at the Black Friday riot.
The kids that incited the riot
The security guard who abandoned his post
The woman who killed the other woman with her cart
The shop owner who prioritized profit over safety
The owner's wife who tried to cover it up
Still scratching my head about the mascot dude though. Still can't figure out the connection for him
@@pizzaisgreat4evernoreally497he unintentionally killed a woman on the black friday riot, her head got scalped when her hair got stuck on the turkey mascot guy's trolley. So the killer is after him for that.
And that two young couple who announces that the store is open even though it wasnt yet. And people ramming in the store that causes stampede.
“Price Mart” 🤣😂☠️
I definitely agree that the Black Friday riot was the most effective moment in the movie. Other than that, a few of the jokes made me chuckle. Shes been cooking all day, lol!
I love camp but this movie felt VERY diffuse, but the black friday moment was hilarious like you said
Loved it. A clear homage to the slashers of the 80s, in particular and quite clearly My Bloody Valentine and The Prowler! Eli Roth brought the camp and gore he grew up watching, he’s truly a fan of the genre.
I liked how they poked fun at “influencers” who like to all real deep and caring, but only get attention cause they are hot…. The essay scene with the guy showing his abs….
This was more of a 90’s homage, the original trailer was more 70’s/80’s
@@alejandromolinacAnd his name being Chad was great.
A chicken, no it was a Turkey set on fire..Joseph's comedic touch😅for a Thanksgiving plot😊
I really liked this movie. I thought that Gina Gershon was gonna be the killer. I WOULD have been disappointed, but when Patrick Dempsey was like, “She was carrying my child!” I had to repress a cackle and I forgave it right away.
I would definitely shop at Price Mart before I would shop at Right Mart"! 😅😂😂🤣🤣😳😬🤗💋👍🤗😎🥰
The fact that I got excited thinking we were actually getting the original product that was teased in the 2007 mock trailer, I was thinking that is quite ballsy considering the kills shown in that trailer would not fly in the sensitive social climate today. I wanted to see Michael bein as a sheriff on discovering the fluid leaking out of the turkey mascot was blood looking deadpan and saying "you sonofbitch". Or all the decapitated kills in the woods. And the girl on the trampoline landing in full splits on the butcher knife. Not to mention the human that is manipulated and trussed like a turkey and on the table under a huge tablecloth. Sadly this is not the same film.
I had fun with this one. Easily my favorite Roth film.
Gina G is suppose to get knocked up at 61?!?!? Um, 20 years ago would’ve been, like, a stretch biologically speaking.
I thought the part was funny. The killer has to feed the cat before he left the security guards house lol
I just got back from seeing this, I thought it was pretty cool, the ending is a little wonky but over all it was fun!
The dinner was a commentary on consumerism. He says it when he cuts the slice off the woman and is about to feed it to pops
I thought it might have been Ryan, the douchey dude who had football tickets
I was soooo happy to see Crystal Connors. Just wish she had more scenes 😊❤
I thought she was gonna be the killer.
@Sharpe1502 I thought maybe it was the BF, ex BF, or new cop in town. They did such a good job with having certain characters disappear and reappear. Good curve balls. I didn't think it was Crystal Connors given she got such a good settlement from the Stardust Casino tee hee ♥️
Great review and breakdown definitely my favorite review channel on UA-cam yall are the best
So we're supposed to let "I've seen the inside of a body before." slide? 🤔
Do tell...
We definitely need that story
Was waiting on this 😊
Same!
Thought it was ok ish … actually thought he should have edited it more in the grind house style or the original trailer from Tarantino and Rodriguez grind house features. Of course Eli Roth directed that spoof trailer
Does anyone remember when a Walmart employee was trampled to death as soon as he opened the door? This happened, and the shoppers refused to leave.
Yeah you miss a lot of little details the group passing talks about that guy who looks too old to be a teenager, failed twice and was dating a cheerleader…also there are soooo many Easter eggs for the new look in the sequel.
You've got my Sub. Great Video!!
I am a huge Chris Pike fan, you just made my day mentioning him🎉🎉🎉🎉
“She for some reason, chooses to inflate this large chicken” WTF? This one sounds like a real classic, a classic piece of crap. Thank you both for sitting through this garbage so some of us don’t have to. Happy Thanksgiving!
It’s so fun!
Glad you guys are reviewing something popular, but I feel that you should expand on that. Art house films are great (thanks Nick), but we would really also like to see more mainstream movies reviewed like the David Fincher's movie The Killer.
Thanks!
Thank you!
Watching even though I plan on seeing the movie 😂
This is probably more entertaining for me
Omg the Christopher Pike name drop is so accurate. Idk if you guys have ever read Chain Letter this movie sort of reminds me of that.
I was so disappointed in this. This should have been over the top ridiculous fun. It started out that way but instead it became a paint by numbers, playing it safe borefest. I was taken out when they cowered out and didn't do the trampoline scene the way it was in the original trailer ha
YES. I wanted over-the-top, extreme, SUPER fun, and VERY well written. Dude has written close to a dozen films and he shits this garbage out? So embarrassing but I guess reviews from people who think Netflix's original Chainsaw Massacre was a "great film" liked it??
I liked this movie! It was fun and bloody. I love ya'll so much❤
I enjoyed this movie as a fun body count, but as someone else mentioned a pregent Gina Gershon is a bit much. Like there aint no eggs left in that basket!
Lol that was my first thought too when I saw the manager of that store‘s wife I’m like she is way too pretty and glam to be a working class wife I know that sounds mean but let’s just be real😂😂
Wait you are smiling on a slasher. I must pause and come back *AFTER* seeing. *back* (a) Any -sales- stores starting on Thanksgiving Day, Let folks have the DAY!! I am empathetic to the slasher. I was always like one step too far. (b) IT was not lost on me that the man (Party-Marty Gun Dealer) gave a *high school kid* a Sig Sauer the weapon of choice for Crumbley, if I recall. It saddens me to recall that detail ....(c) Act III parade scene switcheroo was a breath of fresh air for horror loyalists 😮 (d) That's the oven from Tales from The Darkside, ..always wondered what they did with that ol' witch's oven, lol👩🍳
Makes me think of the Terrifier films. I wanna see this one!
What was Joseph doing to have seen the inside of a body before?
I know Joseph's had a variety of different jobs in his life maybe he also worked at a morgue?at some point😲
This reminded me of a play on the 1970s/1980s horror movies. Especially the ones where there is a camp lol
The killer was so obvious but I thought the new bf was the second killer.
How did Jessica end up Ryan? Just bc Bobby wasn't there?
Excellent review, as always! As a Bostonian, I am curious if the butchered the accents?
Yeah, as usual they're not great. They go in and out, with the characters that even are attempting it, that is. Most of the main characters don't even bother.
The grandma in the beginning scene is Lynne Griffin - plastic sheet victim sitting in rocking chair in the original black Christmas
I thought Dempsey was convincing as the killer but it doesn't make up for the fact that his character was poorly developed up until the climax. Part of the fun of these movies is trying to establish the killer's motive but how can you do that if important information is withheld up to the very end? I suppose some people would have guessed that it was him just by virtue of him being one of the few recognizable names in a cast of mostly unknowns. (Spoilers for Scream 6) It's similarly underwhelming for those who have just seen Scream 6.
The film was still mostly fun. The kills were appropriately gory and the stalking scenes were suspenseful. I did prefer the trampoline kill in the trailer. The one featured in this movie did feel pointless and was my least favorite kill in the movie. The parade kill where the guy's face got impaled was the most fun while Evan's head getting repeatedly smashed in at the dinner table was the most shocking.
All in all, I think the film works best as a one and done slasher however I wouldn't mind if Eli Roth took a stab at another holiday. With a little more humor and some more interesting characters, I think it could be even more fun.
How was the trampoline scene pointless in the movie? The killer was targeting her (Amy) from the riot along with her boyfriend (Lonnie) due to their involvement. Unless you didn’t realize she was the one with the pink jacket in the riot scene that was part of the group that smashed through the fence caused by her boyfriend. The trampoline scene was a direct hit on her and the boyfriend.
@@RyanVanFleet-k7z I meant the scene felt overly contrived for the payoff we ended up getting. I can understand why it's in the movie given the notoriety of the original Grindhouse trailer, but by not including the part where she lands on her you know what, it's missing the thing that made it so memorable in the first place. It's also one of the few kills that is entirely CGI.
All the characters were poorly developed. The story was poorly developed. It was trash.
I wouldn't call it pointless but the single stupidest kill scene I've scene in a decade? Yes. The reason? It was a moment that was completely force and setup for the kill. The writer was so fucking lazy he couldn't come up with a plausible set up for why the girl would be on the trampoline so came up with the most contrived "seduction" scene. It was actually cringey. Like an 8 year old child wrote the scene. @@RyanVanFleet-k7z
I thought it was decent....didnt love it or hate it.....i would watch it again🤷🏽♀️ lol
I thought Gina's kill should have been more too. Like something wild I totally agree. Maybe she had a heart attack too idk. Also the dumpster thing.
Have my ticket for Sunday 💙
**needs know why Joseph has seen the inside of a body**👀
I did like the Hostel movies so I’ll probably see this.
Seriously and I’m not talking out of my ass now, I thought Dempsey was the killer from the trailer and his line about “we take thanksgiving seriously here in Plymouth”
He gave it away from his look so why give it away in the trailer?
SPOILER:
Patrick Dempsey and Gina Gershons
Characters were going to be new parents in their late 50s?
So Gina gershams death wasn’t the slight scalping she was already dying from hitting her head and that security guard is the hugely successful Tim Dillon (Dillon was my reason to watch) it’s based on a fake trailer from years back. I stopped watching after a few minutes as I didn’t want anymore spoilers before watching the movie. It’s actually better than any scream movie 🍿
I was disappointed that the final girl was Jessica. She was the most "ugh" character to me (flat acting). It would have been better if Bobby was framed, exonerated in the third act via the cell phone live steam, then cleverly dispatched The Sheriff with some Thanksgiving themed implement.
Friends that don’t make sense was like I Know What ….. That’s why Scary Movie mocked it.
She got blunt force trauma to her head yall gotta watch that part tomorrow
I hate completely illogical deaths by writers that failed science like the fence scene in Final Destination 2.
That’s just failed creativity when you can create real deaths, it just takes longer than 5 mins to think of.
6:39 in regards to Gershon’s bit:
My read was the blunt force trauma of the cart hitting her head killed her; the scalping was just extra pain and trauma.
I loved that this movie let/made us spend time with all our key players before people started dying.
Not a fan of gore… but the film sounds fun… I bet it does bank .
I just finished watching the film. I would have liked it more if it was done as a traditional murder mystery. There was enough substance to the story for that. But I am sure that there will be a Thanksgiving 2; however I won’t be watching.
I knew it was Patrick Dempsey from the trailer alone lol
"I've seen the inside of a body"
This was just like you said.... Intriguing beginning with the riot/stampede, then just became basic as hell. Not scary or really funny either ... Very disappointing
Yeah, the movie was quite boring
Seen it last night I thought it was a pretty good slasher
You both sound sick. Feel better boys!!!
I had a hard time believing the killer was the killer because he was too old to be that knowledgeable about technology. It should have been set in a college not high school.
It’s funny it seems like you didn’t watch the movie lol The killings weren’t random the cheerleader and that guy were together when he stole the microphone from the sheriff and started the riot by saying the store is open and that’s what kicked everything off… waitress was the one who rammed her cart on the chicks head over and over all the killings had a purpose the kid who got his head smashed in got killed because he posted that video that went viral.
Seen the inside of a body?? Uh… what?
What's a movie that you guys both gave 5 stars ?
If you look at our Letterboxd accounts, there are quite a few.
damn Joseph is beautiful
I thought the killer's motivation for targeting the friend group (especially Evan) was set up pretty clearly in the beginning.
The main jock Evan clearly taunts the outside crowd from inside the store. This is probably one of the reasons the mob got so riled up.
And then later Evan posts a video including footage from inside the store making light of the situation and actively mocking one of the people who died.
Like... that's some pretty important context to just gloss over
Spoilers.....What??? Not the Sexiest Man Alive!?! 🤗
I will not be watching this film cause that TikTok girl
This is based on the fake trailer from grindhouse
Everyone was so unlikeable..
I saw the film and didn’t much enjoy it. A lot of the kills looked so papier-mâché fake. Everyone’s running around cursing in New England accents is supposed to be funny?
I guess kids will like it but idk scream had a bit more tension
Also the cat dude Tim Dillon gave me Chris Farley energy with a Boston accent
I didn't like the ending of the movie because it seemed a bit extra maybe they want to make a sequel amdbj just wanted a peaceful ended after all that killing.
I don't know why they keep calling this a 'slasher' movie. It's exactly as I predicted...nobody will make traditional slashers anymore.
OMG! You predicted a slasher!….. GENIUS!
@@alejandromolinac I've seen most 80's slasher movies....Inexplicably, they kept cooking people to a minimum...No, this is something ELSE...
This isn’t an 80’s slasher, it’s a 90’s slasher.
@@nunyabiznaz1352 90's slasher? You mean like I Know What You Did Last Summer, or Urban Legend, or Scream? Again, they really streamlined the cooking and ingesting people sequences...
I'm thankful that Eli Roth finally made an ok movie
It was so good to me.
Loved this movie! One of the best films of 2023!
I liked it a lot.
This movie was funny as fuck
It was obvious to me that it would be Patrick Dempsey from the very first trailer because, to me, it was like, WHY ELSE would a has been like him be in the movie??
Glad I canceled my movie ticket to see this and waited til it hit Netflix which used to be free via a family member (Used to only pay for 1 but thx, Netflix 😠 but ya gotta love family! Heh) cuz my high hopes for this movie based off the trailers were dashed. Thought it should have been way better than it was.
I hated this movie 5 thumbs down
Thanks!
Thank you!
