Addison Rae And Patrick Dempsey In Gruesome ‘Thanksgiving’ Trailer
PEOPLE MAGAZINE
'Thanksgiving,' which originated as a faux trailer filmmaker Eli Roth created for the 2007 double feauture 'Grindhouse,' releases in theaters Nov. 17
Addison Rae and Patrick Dempsey are facing down a serial killer dressed as a pilgrim in a new holiday-themed slasher.
On Wednesday, Tristar Pictures released the official trailer for director Eli Roth's new movie Thanksgiving, a long-awaited horror film based on a faux trailer Roth, 51, created that ran in theaters during the 2007 Robert Rodriguez-Quentin Tarantino double feature Grindhouse.
The new trailer meets citizens of Plymouth, Massachusetts and Nell Verlaque's character on Thanksgiving as she recounts the events of a deadly Black Friday incident at a local department store. Meanwhile, Dempsey's sheriff character asks a colleague to "show some enthusiasm" for the holiday, before the movie's killer breaks into a diner's kitchen and murders an employee.
As police locate a body atop the department store where a past riot happened, a group of teenagers are tagged in an Instagram post featuring a table set for Thanksgiving dinner by an account named "therealjohncarver" — the same name as John Carver, the first governor of Massachusetts' 17th century Plymouth colony.
