Thanksgiving (2023)

It's a very Aughtsterion holiday, as the fifth season of the pod
debuts with Eli Roth's latest (and possibly best??)
effort: Thanksgiving. Based on the trailer for a fake movie
of the same name that rolled in
between Grindhouse movies back in 2007, this
Thanksgiving, as some anonymous internet commenter described it,
like if someone made a 2000s remake of the non-existent 1970s
movie the original trailer depicted. In other words, it's
basically fantastic. Jordan is boosting it as her favorite Roth
of all time, while Sam sees it as a close contender with his top
choice, Hostel 2, but no matter where that discussion ends
up, it means the audience wins. Roth has a way with depicting
horrible people doing horrible things. And while his love of gore
has never abated since the torture tourism era, his level of
misogynist sleaze thankfully has. (At least... for now!) So, join
your co-hosts to celebrate a most rare scary movie gem — the
Turkey Day slasher — as well as the maturation of Rick Hoffman on
screen, the presence of Addison Rae, and yes, even a musical
about Jesus. It will all make sense once you listen,
promise!
