Format:DVD
Tucker & Dale are two charming hillbillies, happy within themselves but shy out of their comfort zone.
Their lives are invaded by a group of preppy college students who, through a series of unfortunate events believe them to be hillbillies of the murdering kind. The film is a parody of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre genre, something it nods to on more than one occasion.
Tucker & Dale are very likeable characters and you will find yourself rooting for them. Dale in particular has a very sweet relationship with one girls and it's charming to watch. But the real point of this film is the comedy and it does this very well. There's a part of me that wants to point out that the misunderstandings that lead to the humour are quite slapstick and sometimes you can see them coming. But this isn't a criticism, there is no arguing with the fact that the film is laugh-out-loud funny for a good amount of time, it's just an observation.
Good comedies have been thin on the ground this year so this is a real gem. Watch it, you'll like it.

I can't believe that such an amazing film had so little publicity or distribution - I am so excited that it will finally be released!
As an avid horror fan, I had no expectations for Tucker and Dale. I basically watch anything and everything, and seeing as this was low-budget with very little publicity, I underestimated this. It has since become one of my favourite movies ever.
Alan Tudyk is fantastic as always, and I had never seen Tyler Labine before but he basically steals the show. While the films it's ripping are pretty foul, T+D still manages to have a lot of heart, and Labine's character is so adorable!
This does for The Hills Have Eyes what Shaun did for Dawn Of The Dead, while kicking Zombieland in the privates. Unmissable.

If you're a fan of the 'Scream' series of film then you'll probably love this too. Group of stereotypical preppy American teens get the idea that a couple of lovable hillbillies are homicidal maniacs and only manage to hurt themselves by attacking them which serves to compound their fears and make things even worse. As in the Scream films some of the deaths are a little gruesome but the humour lightens it all and ends up being a great black comedy. Well worth a watch.

Simple, different, lots of laughs and lots of gore
This movie is what it is, and it is great at it. A real feel-good of the horror genre. A definite must.

Laugh out loud.
Anyone with a penchant for bloodthirsty movies, and many who are appalled by them will find this film irresistable, it's a bit like "Wrong Turn" but funny, as the plot is similar... Read more

One doozy of a film !
I didn't know whether to give this film 4 or 5 stars because as black comedies go there ain't a lot wrong with this movie. Quite frankly it scores in so many areas. Read more

Stupid, but fun
Even though the jokes are set up well in advance (zip in the van with the poice car, the wood chipper, the bees nest, the running in the woods onto a sharp branch), you can't help... Read more

A lot of Fun
Why isn't this movie more well known? Very much a B movie but I say that as a lover of this genre. Intelligent and taking the usual stereotypes but turning them upside down, it is... Read more
