Synopsis from Rotten Tomatoes:
"Tucker & Dale vs Evil is a hilariously gory, good-spirited horror comedy, doing for killer rednecks what Shaun of the Dead did for zombies. Tucker and Dale are two best friends on vacation at their dilapidated mountain house, who are mistaken for murderous backwoods hillbillies by a group of obnoxious, preppy college kids. When one of the students gets separated from her friends, the boys try to lend a hand, but as the misunderstanding grows, so does the body count. Tucker & Dale vs Evil has been a hit on the festival circuit, debuting at Sundance, and winning the Midnight Audience Award at SXSW, the Jury Prize for First Feature at Fantasia, the Best Director award at Fantaspoa, and the Best Motion Picture Award at Sitges."

I think there should be more love for this film. I'm a big fan of horror/comedy films and this looks fantastic. I've been wanting to see it for a while, but it was never released in cinemas in the UK (as far as I know), which is a shame. It has two lead actors who are great (Alan Tudyk from Firefly, A Knight's Tale etc., and Tyler Labine who I remember from Reaper, so it's worth a look.

It's doing pretty well on Rotten Tomotoes at the moment too!

I do advise though that if you don't like spoilers, don't search for the trailer, because it's one of those annoying ones that shows you what looks to be all the best bits.

Cant agree more. I was surprised to see how good the movie is.

Great to see more love for the film. I've not been lucky enough to see it yet, but I've honestly heard nothing but good things from people who have. It's a definite preorder for me.

Really loved this movie ... laughed my arse off in the theatre. Too bad the cover-artwork is horrid, and i thought the german one was bad

[thewerepuppygrr]

Yeah, the cover art isn't the best. It's usually something I focus on but to be honest I'm just so happy this is getting a UK release at all!

UPDATE: My copy was dispatched from HMV on Wednesday, hopefully I'll have it tomorrow.
