5.0 out of 5 stars "This vacation sucks" Feb 20 2012
By E. A Solinas HALL OF FAME TOP 10 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
Ever seen a horror movie with hillbillies in it? They're usually psychotic chainsaw-swinging inbred cannibal psychos who like to murder anyone who happens to drive by.

But don't expect any of THAT to actually appear in "Tucker & Dale Vs Evil," a clever black comedy that asks, "What if the HILLBILLIES were the innocent victims of the doomed college kids?" Tropes are inverted (or lampshaded), there's gore aplenty, and Alan Tudyk and Tyler Labine make endearingly rough-hewn heroes.

West Virginia hillbillies Dale (Labine) and Tucker (Tudyk) have just bought a dilapidated little house out by a remote lake, and plan to spend some time fishing and drinking beer. They also end up rescuing Allison (Katrina Bowden), a college student who hit her head while swimming, and she soon finds that these seemingly terrifying hillbillies are actually kind, gentle and sometimes quite smart.

Unfortunately, Allison's friends get the wrong idea, and think that she's being held captive by a pair of chainsaw-swinging psychos. As they try to attack Dale and Tucker, they end up accidentally dying in bizarre and gory ways. As Dale, Tucker and Allison try to defuse the situation, they also have to deal with the increasingly bloodthirsty Chad (Jesse Moss).

I have no idea why it's taken so long for "Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil" to make it onto DVD, because this movie is absolutely hilarious -- a gory, satirical little comedy that acknowledges every hillbilly-slasher cliche right before turning it on its ear. And yes, writer/director Eli Craig homages many a horror movie, from "Evil Dead" to "Friday the 13th."

And even though it's obviously a spoof, "Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil" is actually very well-written -- clever foreshadowing, a shocking climactic twist, and all sorts of hilarious situations that make Dale and Tucker look... well, like psycho hillbillies. For instance: Tucker accidentally destroys a beehive, and ends up racing through the woods, screaming and waving his chainsaw spastically.

And yes, there are lots of OTHER hilarious moments, such as lampshading hillbilly stereotypes ("Oh, I love Earl Grey") and the college kids' gory deaths (impaling themselves on sticks or jumping into woodchippers).

And the acting is absolutely brilliant. Labine and Tudyk are amazing as the protagonists, respectively playing a sweet timid teddy bear and an outgoing good ol' boy. Yeah, don't judge these guys from their appearances, because you will be ALL WRONG. And the rest of the small cast also does an excellent job, especially given that most of them are shrieking horror movie cliches.

"Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil" is pretty clearly destined to be a cult classic, right alongside other fun spoofs like "Shaun of the Dead." Hilarious, bloody and clever.

I'm not going to describe the plot other than it's a unique and hilarious twist on the "campy horror where teens go camping by a lake"

I bought this on a recommendation from a friend. For a relatively unknown and low budget film, it is really well written, acted and directed. Alan Tudyk and Tyler Labine have a great chemistry and their acting performances (along with everyone else) are excellent. The plot is pretty damn good and funny. The Blu Ray extras are decent, nothing spectacular except for the extra where they re-edit the film so it is told from the side of the teens which I really enjoyed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Funny stuff! Feb 2 2012
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
First off I'll give my rating (I do a four star) I'll giv'er 3/4 stars. This movie is funny! I got some good belly laughs, I was entertained, I will watch this movie again.
For orignality I'd say 3/4 as well. While the kills were funny, they were a bit predictable.
I like how this film was shot. I like how the actors protrayed their charachters especially Tucker & Dale. I love how they have no clue as to what is going on with the crazy college kids committing suicide around them. The paniced discussion inside the cabin as to what the "college kids" are doing was one of the funniest scenes.
As far as plot goes, there is a thin one but this movie doesn't really need a plot as much as the comedy kills combined with no one asking anyone the simple question "What's going on?" with the exception of Alison and the hillbillies!
I didn't go into this movie expecting much. I'm glad I was wrong!
Well worth a laugh! This is a light, fun, horror/comedy. Get your buddies, get some pizza and your favorite beverages, and have a good laugh.
