Tucker & Dale vs Evil (2011)

Tucker & Dale vs Evil (Pre-Theatrical Rental)

Director: Eli Craig
Starring: Andrew Tudyk, Tyler Labine, Katrina Bowden

Synopsis:
Two country living, best friends decide they need a vacation. They buy a run down cabin in the woods and head out for a relaxing weekend. Along the way, a group of city going college students cross their paths. The kids get the idea that the two best friends are killers and decide to attack them first. Murder and mayhem insue.

My Take:
One of the best movies I've seen in a long time. It's smartly written, turns the genre on its ear, and has the perfect pitch of humor. The cast is outstanding; Andrew Tudyk is awesome as usual. There is plenty of gore to go around. This is movie which should gain a huge following as time goes by.

Rating: Instant Classic
