A new batch of Thanksgiving posters homage a number of classic horror movies.

Shared exclusively with Bloody Disgusting, new posters for Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving homage 1974’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, 1980’s Friday the 13th, 1981’s My Bloody Valentine, and 1984’s Silent Night, Deadly Night.

Sony Pictures Entertainment also released a new Thanksgiving featurette, which sees Roth explain how he always wanted to write a slasher film like 1978’s Halloween and 1996’s Scream

“Any time we do a death, we try to truly make it a classic kill,” Roth says in the video. “We take it very seriously, it’s like a badge of honor for us. This is the kind of movie you go see opening night so that nobody spoils it. You just go and you scream. This has to be the movie that, if I never make another film, it doesn’t matter, I made this one, that’s enough.”

What is Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving about?

“After a Black Friday riot ends in tragedy, a mysterious Thanksgiving-inspired killer terrorizes Plymouth, Massachusetts – the birthplace of the holiday,” the official synopsis reads. “Picking off residents one by one, what begins as random revenge killings are soon revealed to be part of a larger, sinister holiday plan. Will the town uncover the killer and survive the holidays…or become guests at his twisted holiday dinner table?”

Based on the mock trailer of the same name that Roth made for 2007’s Grindhouse, Thanksgiving stars Patrick Dempsey, Addison Rae, Milo Manheim, Jalen Thomas Brooks, Nell Verlaque, Rick Hoffman, Gina Gershon, and Tim Dillon. The screenplay comes from Jeff Rendell, who also serves as a producer for the film alongside Roth and Roger Birnbaum.

Thanksgiving release theatrically in the United States on November 17, 2023, from Sony Pictures Entertainment.
