Tucker and Dale vs Evil

TUCKER AND DALE VS EVIL (2010) - Oct. 22, 2011
About the shenanigans that ensue when a group of partying teens mistake a couple of good-natured guys for murderous rednecks, this was a well made and sporadically hilarious send-up of slasher movies.  Like the best horror comedies, the film manages to poke fun at genre conventions without smugly winking at the audience; even if you've never seen a slasher movie, you can still enjoy this film.  Tyler Labine and Alan Tudyk were both quite good and had great chemistry, and the film was solidly directed by Eli Craig.  Though the first half was probably more enjoyable than the second half, the whole film was definitely quite entertaining throughout.  ***
