In other words: What’s a hidden gem I probably haven’t seen but totally should? And why is it a must-watch?

    Yeah. Tucker and Dale vs Evil still gets way too little love.

    It’s a must watch because:

    • The twist is perfect.
    • Even after the reveal, it’s just so dang fun and hilarious.
    • Horror movies with a deep respect for life are often the best horror movies. Tucker and Dale has that, even if in a stupid goofy way.

      Officer, we have had a doozy of a day!

      Highly recommend that you go in to watching Tucker and Dale versus evil without looking up any information on the movie. Watching it blind is the best way because the less you know about it the more it will entertain you.

        Yes! I just tell friends that it’s a horror flick, and a rollicking good time.

      As a horror fan, I disagree.

      The premise gets old fairly fast and then the twist doesn’t really add anything or accentuate the spoofiness, just makes the film more generic.

      If you’re a fan of a certain era of teen slashers, sure go for it.

      《Little Monsters》 and 《The Rise of Leslie Vernon 》are recent takes on horror films I personally prefer.
