Following the blood-soaked events of Thanksgiving (2023), horror maestro Eli Roth returns with an even darker, more violent chapter in THANKSGIVING 2: BLOOD HARVEST — a slasher sequel that takes the carnage to a terrifying new level. The first trailer gives fans a haunting glimpse into a small town where the holiday spirit has been replaced by fear, secrets, and sharpened blades.
🩸 Plot Summary:
A year after the horrific massacre that shook Plymouth, Massachusetts, survivors are trying to rebuild their lives. Emily Carter (Jenna Ortega), a traumatized teen with a growing obsession to uncover the truth, begins receiving cryptic warnings that John Carver — or someone even worse — has returned.
At the same time, a new sheriff in town, Deputy Neil Hartman (Bill Skarsgård), is investigating a string of gruesome murders staged like traditional harvest rituals. As bodies pile up and secrets unravel, it becomes clear: this isn’t just a copycat — it’s a reckoning.
And this time, the blood harvest isn’t just symbolic… it’s real.
