Dodgy Film Club: Thankskilling

Thankskilling is a low budget, self aware horror comedy about five college students on a road trip home for Thanksgiving, who are set upon by a murderous, eh, fowl-mouthed (sorry) Turkey.

Where has this movie been all my life? As much of an homage as a satire, it features a classic set of horror characters, including:

• The Jock (comes with football)
• The Redneck (comes with chin beard)
• The Nerd (comes with health issues)
• The Dumb Slut (comes with sex puns)
• The Good Girl (comes with additional 'Sheriff Dad' character)
• The Weird Old(ish) man (comes with ability to show up at any time)

Here are some highlights and things to expect:

• The opening shot is of an exposed breast, belonging to an inexplicably topless mom-aged blonde woman, in, we are told, 1621.
• Soon after we are introduced to the turkey, who can not only wield an axe, but can also deliver one liners like an anachronistic action movie star. (e.g. the line 'Nice tits, bitch', which is totally the language turkeys in 1621 would use, should they be able to talk)
• Surprisingly little nudity, given the open shot
• Vague Increasingly strong homo-eroticism
• A punk and metal dominated soundtrack for some reason. I mean, it's sweet, but why would these 5 people be listening to it?
• 'Turkeyologists'
• Awful puns!
• Graduates of the Alan Bagh school of acting
• A lead character named Johnny (reference or no?)
• The line 'Gobble gobble, motherfucker'
