It’s finally here. Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving goes from Grindhouse trailer to real movie.

For those unfamiliar, the film is based on the Eli Roth’s fake movie trailer made for Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez’s campy double feature Grindhouse, which featured a medley of spots from other genre directors in between the films. Roth’s trailer then was definitely boundary-pushing for the Grindhouse aesthetic with that ‘70s slasher and very adult feel. This time around we’re not getting a film in that genre; the trailer for the film, due out on November 17, presents a more modern thriller. Don’t worry, there are still nods to the original trailer in this red-band spot relased by IGN, which incorporates a nearly shot-for-shot homage to the beginning of the original Grindhouse trailer.
