ThanksKilling (2008)

I love this movie so much

You won't be disappointed!

One of my all time favorites.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Alright, this movie is just downright awful. In no way am I congratulating any work put into this atrocity. Yet it still made me laugh because of how terrible it was. First off the characters...all stupid or ignorant in their own way just struck me as hilarious. Even in really cheesy/bad horror flicks there's always one sort of "voice of reason" with a small amount of intelligence...not in this film! That is part of what makes this comedy (in my opinion) at least silver tier. Ultimately there are a few parts of this film that are still stuck in my head and make me laugh, but that doesn't make it any better.

This is terrible Just so bad but I quite liked it. The first omg line is "your legs are harder to shut the the Jon Benet case" It only got better with the arrival of the killer Turkey. And what a turkey he is, a walking, talking killer evil turkey. The acting is pretty bad with all the stereotypes present. The jock guy, the slut, the last girl, the virgin and the backwoods stoner go camping in the woods could have been a working title. If you like bad movies and have a spare 90 minutes this could be the movie you afternoon nap to.

This movie was one of the most horrible I have ever seen or heard of. It tries to act like a "so bad it's good", but it's really "so bad it's horrible". The jokes and puns aren't funny, some even offensive (they reference the Jonbenet Ramsay case TWICE, while failing to be funny both times). I've heard better puns in Foodfight. The characters also act like complete idiots to the point where you just want to slap some sense into them. The turkey is clearly a puppet, and not a convincing one. It felt like it would take forever to end. The acting is also incredibly wooden. Not recommended.

This ultra-super-duper-excessively cheap film is something you just need to see to appreciate. It starts a cheesy looking turkey puppet who goes on a murderous rampage--all during which he makes cheesy and occasionally funny comments. It also features the puppet having sex with a teen as well as one funny scene where he sits and has coffee with an off-duty cop and a song montage that made my brain hurt.Considering that the folks who made "ThanksKilling" meant to make a bad film and had almost no budget whatsoever, it's a hard film to review. Yes, it is bad--but they knew they were making a bad movie when they made it and there is no attempt to make anything other than a very stupid film. So, if you do watch it, you should be the sort of person who likes terrible films AND you have a high tolerance for the vulgarity and deliberately gratuitous nudity. As for the nudity, I normally don't want it in films, but it was rather funny how they used it--as a way of making fun of the gratuitous nature of slasher films. As for the language, it's very, very crude and dumb...but again, that IS what they were looking for! This is NOT a film to show your mother or Father Jenkins (unless your mother or Father Jenkins are sociopathic murderers).Impossible to really rate. See it and you'll see why. And, I really have no idea if I liked it or not!
