Thanksgiving arrives next week, bringing with it the stressful chaos of the holidays and rewatches of holiday horror staples like Blood Rage and Thanksgiving. Despite the horror that the holidays can inspire, it’s a rather niche subgenre when it comes to Thanksgiving. If you’re already tired of the handful of classics or not feeling the holidays this year, this week’s streaming picks are dedicated to Thanksgiving-set horror movies that barely bother with the holidays at all. These titles take place on or around Thanksgiving, but quickly become too preoccupied with the terror to worry much about holiday tradition or theming.

I get this list is about movies that don’t have a focus on the holiday, but I don’t personally see the point of that. Stressed over the holiday? What is better than seeing the holiday be a massacre. Just my thoughts though. Get some Thankskilling in your life.
