Director Eli Roth says there's a much darker, more serious message behind his fun slasher Thanksgiving.
"I love horror movies like Dawn of the Dead, where you're watching the most incredible zombie splatter ever. But then you can look back at what Romero was really saying and his thoughts on consumerism. And there's a lot more to dissect there. What I wanted to do with Thanksgiving is give people a great slasher film. If you think about it, it’s a pilgrim rampaging through a town killing people," Roth explains to GamesRadar+.
