Growing up in New York, every year on Thanksgiving WOR Channel 9 would broadcast King Kong, Son of Kong and Mighty Joe Young.

Then, on Friday, they would have a Godzilla marathon and end it with War of the Gargantuas

As you sit around the table on Thanksgiving jokingly wondering "Am I really related to these people?"
Maybe you should actually be asking yourself, "Are these really the people I am related too..."

For fans of Empire of the Vampire, The Passage, and Game of Thrones.

Culling of the House of Boars is a descent into darkness where ancient vampire clans wage brutal wars among themselves, their hunger for power rivaling their thirst for human blood.
