"Gobble gobble, motherfucker!"

It's a big family holiday here in America, so even if you're not working, you still likely have a dozen things you'd rather not do today. For example, you might have to eat some frozen, jellied turkey-vegetable salad, because your aunt tried the recipe in 1975 and everyone told her it was good just to be polite and now you're doomed to eat two spoonfuls of this slop every year until she dies. You don't want to pray for someone's death, especially not your own flesh and blood, but come on, it's frozen, jellied turkey-vegetable salad.

Alas, you must endure because it's tradition. That's how I feel about reviewing the movie I'm about to tell you about. Last year I wrote about ThanksKilling, so this week's Thursday Thriller is ThanksKilling 3.

If you're wondering why I'm not reviewing ThanksKilling 2, it's because there isn't one. According to the 2012 sequel by director Jordan Downey, ThanksKilling 2 was the worst movie ever made, in addition to having a curse on it, so a spaceman robot guy and a worm puppet that looks kinda phallic, have destroyed every copy but one.

Turkie, the ugly puppet that's the star of the franchise, catches wind there is only one copy left and sets off with his son to find it.

The movie has fallen into the backpack of Yomi, a Muppet-style creature who has lost her mind and is in desperate search for it. She asks a powdered wig-wearing entrepreneur named Uncle Donny (Daniel Usaj) to take her to Thanksgiving because it might be there. He brings her home where she meets his brother Jefferson (Joe Hartzler) and his grandmother, who is a rapping puppet.

Uncle Donny and Jefferson tell Yomi about their dream to one day open Thanksgivingland, a theme park with rides like The Gravy Train and so on, then Turkie shows up and starts causing trouble trying to get his movie. Not to worry, because they run him through Uncle Donny's invention The PluckMaster and kill him, but then some skeleton turkeys resurrect him, but they couldn't put his penis back on so Turkie attaches a chainsaw in its place in a nod to Evil Dead 2.

After that it gets a little weird.

This movie is a sloppy, all-over-the-place mess with lots of puppets, tasteless humor and trippy, flashy bits with throbbing dubstep for background music. It's annoying on purpose. If I have to say something nice, I'll admit I laughed at parts of it. It's a unique viewing experience and even more outlandish than the first one.

ThanksKilling 3 streams on Amazon Prime.
