Almost a month ago, we posted a trailer for Tucker and Dale vs Evil, and while late to the game finding this trailer I couldn’t resist sharing it because it looks like an amazingly funny film. This is how I summed it up.
Everyone is tired of the same old “drunk hot college kids go camping and get slashed up by derranged rednecks” but what happens when those rednecks are not hankering for your brains and it just looks like they are?
Yup. Kids get themselves killed.
Sadly after making the film festival circuits, it sat in limbo, but all hope is not lost!
Way up here in the Great White North the film has been picked up for Canadian Distribution by Maple Pictures and should see a theatrical release around Spring 2011 … IN CANADA. Spring is a thing to celebrate up here, so this is just icing on the cake.
Yup, that’s right kiddies. Canada is getting it first. This doesn’t happen often so when it does, I am going to gloat a bit.
It will find its way to DVD in due time after that and Americans will flock our borders looking to get their hands on a copy to smuggle back to their homeland.
But fear not. If the film is half as well accepted here as the trailer has been, it is only a matter of time before some US distributor gets their mitts on it and shares it with the rest of you.
In the mean time I am going to go celebrate with some Poutine and look forward to seeing this some time next year.
