Storyline

Two lovable West Virginian hillbillies are headed to their "fixer-upper" vacation cabin to drink some beer, do some fishin', and have a good time. But when they run into a group of preppy college kids who assume from their looks that they must be in-bred, chainsaw-wielding killers, Tucker & Dale's vacation takes a bloody and hilarious turn for the worse.

Goofs

When the sheriff arrives to question Tucker and Dale at the cabin, Tucker's face is still slightly swollen and covered in Mike's blood. When they go in the cabin to check on Allison, Tucker's face and neck are clean and un-swollen. When they go back outside after the sheriff gets hit with the beam, Tucker is bloody and swollen again.

Comedy/Horror Rises Again!

I just saw this tonight at SIFF in Seattle. Delightful! Hilarious, twisted, well-written and funny.

Didn't hurt that the filmmakers picked two of the funniest guys in the biz to play Tucker and Dale.

But this isn't just a farce. You end up really caring about the main characters.

And the scary character, when that person is revealed, is pretty dang scary.

Funniest thing I've seen since Zombieland, and I laughed so hard through Zombieland I thought I was gonna barf.

Do not miss this movie!
