Genre: Comedy, Horror
Starring: Tyler Labine, Katrina Bowden

Rotten Tomatoes: 85%
IMDb: 7.6
On Netflix Streaming: Yes






Summary:

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.

My Thoughts:
I got convinced to watch this movie a couple of weeks ago, and I must say I really enjoyed it. It had a limited release and at the time it came out not too many people saw it. As it got out there a bit, more and more people started seeing it and it became a hit. It is most similar to Shaun of the Dead, for those of you who have seen that. IMO, it is equally as good and has the same genres of comedy and horror. It is really not scary at all, the horror part is just for the gore and (funny) violence. Check this movie out! It's on Netflix streaming.
