Horror-comedy is back
1 January 2012
Just when horror looks like it's gone completely stale, movies like "Tucker and Dale vs. Evil" come out proving there's still more that can be done with the genre. Tucker and Dale are just two country boys who want to live out their dream to own a vacation home. Meanwhile, a group of college kids accidentally mistake them for being hostile which leads to unfortunate results. "Tucker and Dale vs. Evil" may sound familiar but ultimately it's not. Instead of being a straight-up slasher flick, the film decides to be bold and through slapstick comedy into the killing which works surprisingly well. The majority of them are foreshadowed, but still never fail to achieve hilarity. Make no mistake "Tucker and Dale vs. Evil" isn't the smartest movie on the block but it still packs more originality than most horror movies and more laughs than most comedies out right now.
