Announced last month, Eli Roth is finally getting behind the camera for a feature version of Thanksgiving, and THR reports today that Milo Manheim (Zombies) has signed on.
Addison Rae will also star alongside Patrick Dempsey, Jalen Thomas Brooks (“Walker”) and Nell Verlaque (“Big Shot”) in the feature version of Roth’s faux Grindhouse trailer.
Shooting will begin in March with a script by Jeff Rendell, with Spyglass behind the film.
Roger Birnbaum and Eli Roth are producing.
Deadline reminds, “The Thanksgiving trailer presented the gory teaser about a pseudo movie in which a slasher makes his own carving board out of the inhabitants of a Massachusetts town that makes a big annual fuss over the annual turkey day. One of the pivotal scenes involved Roth himself, separated from his head while in the throes of passion with a date in a convertible. It was popular enough that plans formulated to make a feature-length blood feast with Roth at the helm, but 15 years has passed since the original Grindhouse release and you could be forgiven for thinking that Thanksgiving was never coming.”
