ThanksKilling (2008)

Boring, long, and too preachy.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This is terrible Just so bad but I quite liked it. The first omg line is "your legs are harder to shut the the Jon Benet case" It only got better with the arrival of the killer Turkey. And what a turkey he is, a walking, talking killer evil turkey. The acting is pretty bad with all the stereotypes present. The jock guy, the slut, the last girl, the virgin and the backwoods stoner go camping in the woods could have been a working title. If you like bad movies and have a spare 90 minutes this could be the movie you afternoon nap to.

The front cover of my copy of the DVD for this movie advertises "boobs within the first few seconds" and they deliver Nudity aside, this is a surprisingly solid little horror film. I say surprisingly, because this is a bottom of the barrel budgeted movie. As can be expected, the acting is pretty horrible, but it doesn't really take away enjoyment from the movie. There is also plenty of humor, mostly from "Turkey" and gore galore. Throughout the movie, the four main characters act pretty retarded, and deservedly get knocked off one by one. At one point, Turkey kills and skins off the face of one of the main characters father,wears it as a mask, and actually fools our hopelessly stupid heroes on a "Wtf are you really that retarded?" Moment If you haven't seem this movie, what are you waiting for? You won't be disappointed.

This ultra-super-duper-excessively cheap film is something you just need to see to appreciate. It starts a cheesy looking turkey puppet who goes on a murderous rampage--all during which he makes cheesy and occasionally funny comments. It also features the puppet having sex with a teen as well as one funny scene where he sits and has coffee with an off-duty cop and a song montage that made my brain hurt.Considering that the folks who made "ThanksKilling" meant to make a bad film and had almost no budget whatsoever, it's a hard film to review. Yes, it is bad--but they knew they were making a bad movie when they made it and there is no attempt to make anything other than a very stupid film. So, if you do watch it, you should be the sort of person who likes terrible films AND you have a high tolerance for the vulgarity and deliberately gratuitous nudity. As for the nudity, I normally don't want it in films, but it was rather funny how they used it--as a way of making fun of the gratuitous nature of slasher films. As for the language, it's very, very crude and dumb...but again, that IS what they were looking for! This is NOT a film to show your mother or Father Jenkins (unless your mother or Father Jenkins are sociopathic murderers).Impossible to really rate. See it and you'll see why. And, I really have no idea if I liked it or not!

After KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTTER SPACE, this movie is #2 on the B Horror Film list!!! This movie has no point. This movie has no purpose. This movie is f'ing wonderful! I watched this movie on purpose because I love horrible B horror films, and I was more entertained with this so called horror film than most horror movies I watch. A turkey brought back from dead from the Pilgrims era? Really? Horrible acting from the actors who suddenly lost all their family and friends and decide to watch movies and go around like nothing happened to them? Come on, I mean, really people? But the turkey takes the cake on everything. It was great. I loved the comments and how the turkey talked throughout the entire movie.Highly recommended people. Oh and its on NETFLIX too!!!
