Tucker & Dale vs. Evil


Tyler Labine and Alan Tudyk are two hillbillies who just wanted to enjoy a summer in the woods
**** out of ****

Tucker & Dale vs Evil is so funny! There wasn't a dead moment in this brilliant send-up to evil-redneck horror movies. I was constantly laughing and amazed at how long it made the plot's big joke last for an entire feature-length experience. This is an upside-down horror plot with all the conventions in perfect use for laughs. I love that it is about a couple of well-meaning hillbillies who dwell in a creepy cabin in the woods (their summer home) and fear the camping college kids across the lake. Brilliant.
