SILENT NIGHT, PROM NIGHT, BLOODY VALENTINE and PROWLER for sure, with a little SLUMBER PARTY frosting. The rest, quality-wise and minus the spoofery of APRIL FOOL'S, were probably a bit above where Roth was aiming with his spoof. THANKSGIVING, had it been made circa 1980, would be precisely the kind of cash-in movie that rode on the coattails of firsties like HALLOWEEN, FRIDAY THE 13TH and BLACK CHRISTMAS without blazing any new trails of it's own. But there's no doubt Roth has seen 'em all.

Personally, my fave of the fake trailers was MACHETE

Same Youtube user has uploaded all four trailers from the Japanese disc. Cool.
