For most of his young life Tommy the Turkey has been bullied and derided for his un-turkey-like build and diminutive size. But from an early age he quickly learned the score- as the bigger, fatter turkeys would ridicule him during the spring and summer, come late fall they would be rounded up and summarily beheaded and plucked en route to being the centerpiece of a Thanksgiving feast while Tommy had another winter to wander the farm and enjoy the holiday season.
But in 2020 everything has gone tits up, and now Tommy’s sleek and slender frame is just what hungry families forced to socially distance for the holidays are after- a delicious turkey dinner for 2. When a wide-eyed and pandemic-fatigued southern gentleman from Farmville VA spies Tommy on a walk in mid-November he decides he must have him for his own personal turkey dinner, and Tommy must enter into a desperate struggle for survival against an even more desperate poultryphile. John Woo directs this gritty mash-up of Chicken Run and Hard Target.
