Thank you for listening to Jay of the Dead’s New Horror Movies, The Gold Standard of Horror Movie Podcasts.
I’m currently listening to the episode and I’m loving it! And my favorite part is guessing how much doc shock had drank before the black Christmas review haha said with all the love in the world! Love the show keep up the great work!
Great episode. I’m at 9.5/10 on thanksgiving. Plus I love that Eli put the misfits song where eagles dare in end credits. Perfect stamp to great movie
Nice episode guys! I had high hopes for Thanksgiving going into it. While I wasn’t disappointed, I did have a couple of things. The beginning reminded me of Krampus and the rest reminded me of Scream. I felt like I’ve seen this Movie before. In terms of a Thanksgiving Horror, this is by far the best. Well made, great kills and it was fun! I know I’ll enjoy it more on second viewing, it will be a buy for me. 8/10
Loved the episode, great way to wrap up the holiday. Great conversation on the film Thanksgiving. Lots of insight that I had missed during my viewing.
