On this Thanksgiving Day 2025—when families worldwide pretend to get along over lukewarm gravy—the Entertain This hosts reluctantly sharpen their scalpels for a sardonic skewering of Eli Roth’s 2023 holiday “horror,” Thanksgiving. Behold: a buckled-hat butcher transforming quaint ideals into a parade of pratfalls and punctures, where annoying teens evade demise via kitchen appliances and feasts fatal enough to make passive-aggressive in-law jabs look like poetry. Roth’s secret sauce? A sprinkle of self-aware snide, a bushel of bargain-bin backlash against Black Friday avarice, and set pieces so sensationally stupid, one can’t help but admire the audacity—or pity the pitch meeting. Tune in as we grudgingly garnish the gore, mock the meta-messaging on mercantile madness, and ponder aloud: Does this turkey of a tale transcend trashy, or is it just the cinematic equivalent of forcing fruitcake on the finicky? Because nothing says “festive spirit” like sarcasm served with a side of simulated slaughter.
