However, thankfully, there are a few movies that are available on the streaming service which those who are bigger fans of Turkey Day can stream during their holiday celebration. From romantic stories, to horrific takes on the holiday, and loosely adapted versions of real history, there is something for everyone. Here are six options to stream during your 2017 feast:
