The Last Thanksgiving (2020) is a movie I recently stumbled upon on a random streaming site. The story follows a cannibalistic family who believes not enough people appreciate Thanksgiving, so they decide to target a restaurant and its employees for staying open on the holiday.
Directed by Erick Lorinc in his debut, the film stars Samantha Ferrand (Helter Skelter), Linnea Quigley (Night of the Demons), Madelin Marchant (Miami Vice), and Francisco D Gonzalez (Plantados).
Trudie's character had me laughing with some sarcastic lines here and there, but overall, the concept was pretty weak. The kill scenes and gore were let down by blood effects that unfortunately looked more like mud. The final kill was decent, and there were a few clever uses of props.
Overall, this is a low-budget film that misses the mark. I'd give it a 2/10 and recommend skipping it-even if you're in the mood for a Thanksgiving horror film, this one isn't worth it.
