| Films like Scary Movie and Shaun of the Dead proved that scary material can offer fodder for choice comedy. More often than not, though, films that try to combine chills with giggles are terrible messes. When seeing the title and poster for Tucker and Dale vs. Evil one may assume this is another cheap, witless farce of the genre, and though the film isn’t without its missteps, Tucker and Dale is a thoughtful satire of cabin-in-the-woods thrillers, and it’s good for plenty of laughs.
