Horror Comedy Movie Reviews:Tucker & Dale vs Evil, 2010

Tucker & Dale vs Evil (Image via RottenTomatoes.com)This movie just blew me away. I so underestimated it. Wow, what a "Sleeper". I'd never even heard of it and, boy, was it great. I've tried to watch horror movie satires before, and they just didn't fly. But this one can hold its head high.

New favorite movie.

Excellent writing, acting, direction, timing... you name it. I just loved it. A little gore. Not too much T & A and whole lotta laugh-out-louds.

Please do not miss this one.

P.S. For a fun early look at Alan Tudyk (and Jack Black!) check out "The X-Files: Season 3: Ep.3". OOPS! Upon further investigation I see that it's another case of actor look-a-likes. The kid I thought was Alan Tudyk is actually Giovanni Ribisi. For images, pics CLICK HERE.

Copy Cat Movies: Lethal Dose & The Warriors of Terra Sci-Fi Horror Movie Reviews

Image via Wikipedia

Don't let the title fool you. I thought that The Warriors of Terra (2005) was an awesome Sci-Fi Horror flick. It really was scary.

Then I discovered the Brit version (Lethal Dose). Of course, in my American arrogance, I assumed that it was a British knock-off. But, alas, it was the American version that was the knock-off as the Brit version was made in 2003. Hmm.

Anyway, they're remarkably similar and yet so very different at the same time. I have to admit, I liked the American one better. The special effects, the more realistic theme, et.al.  I think it was just better.


What do you think?

Can you think of any other fun Copy Cat duos to watch?

Warriors of Terra Clip (I liked a couple of other Trailers better on Youtube but they had been "disabled". Search for yourself on YouTube to see them.)

And a Behind the Scenes look at "Lethal Dose" with the (Keanu Reeves look-a-like) Tom Hardy:

Hey, I found another 'Sneak into the lab to check out animal experiments' movie: "Man's Best Friend" starring Ally Sheedy. I'm beginning to think this a genre unto its own. And.. this one's more fun than gore.
