Thanksgiving Horror Movies

Do you enjoy Thanksgiving horror movies? We, I’ve got you covered!

Most people believe that horror is only found at summer camps and on Halloween, but as an ardent fan will tell you, horror exists all year.  

Besides The autumnal season is the ideal time to conjure up some scares, especially when October approaches and the cold sets in.

Additionally, after all, on Halloween’s Eve, Americans prepare for Thanksgiving, the most important holiday of the year.  

This month, movie characters face awkward family gatherings and frantic Black Friday sales, just like they do in life. But, to my horror, there’s a greater danger on the horizon.

So put the carving knife away and double-check the cranberry sauce because we’ve ranked ten of the best Thanksgiving horror movies.

1. The Intruder

A young couple bored with city life buys a country cottage from an eccentric surviving spouse who can’t seem to go on with his life.  

The man’s wife feels sorry for him and even invites him to come. Her spouse, on the other hand, is skeptical, believing the former owner had ulterior motivations for befriending the couple.  

Furthermore, The Intruder is influenced by classic domestic thrillers. Although it settles in and preserves the current furniture, it does not renovate the dwelling.

Nevertheless, the performances are quite strong despite Dennis Quaid restrained himself when he could have played things crazier. 

2. Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead

This comic musical, by Troma Films (Toxic Avenger. It is one of the best Thanksgiving horror movies of all time.

The Class of Nuke ‘Em High, and others), is set in a New Jersey fast-food restaurant named the American Chicken Bunker.  

Which is situated on a hallowed Native American burial ground. Furthermore, people are stuffed into meat grinders; a man engages in sexual activity with an uncooked chicken carcass; a man hatches an egg, and undead chickens sing and dance.  

In addition, The film isn’t exactly about Thanksgiving, but it’d be entertaining to watch after a turkey dinner as the tryptophan kicks in. 

3. Kristy

She settles in for a calm week on her own, but what she gets is far from tranquil.
