Movie review by Russell Pinkston

A group of college students decide to go on a camping trip in the middle of  the West Viginia woods.   While at a gas station they run into a couple of  locals, Tucker (Alan Tudyk) and Dale (Tyler Labine).   Tucker and Dale are as backwoods and hillbilly as can be and the college kids are frighten off by them.  After all they have seen alot of movies about these types of people who live way out in the woods.  They once again run into the rednecks while camping, where one of the girls, Allison (Katrina Bowden) is abducted by them.   The college kids lead by Chad (Jesse Moss) decide they are not gonna be the victims they have seen in the movies.  They decide they are gonna fight back and rescue their friend Allison.  One by one the body count starts to add up as well as the laughs.  I don’t want to tell you too much about the movie…it’s one of those movies that you have to see (and enjoyed) by yourself.

Tyler Labine (Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Zack and Miri Make a Porno) and Alan Tudyk (Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) are great in this not so typical horror movie.  They are so totally believeable as the backwoods buddies.  Katrina Bowden (Sex Drive, Piranha 3DD) is both sexy and likable as the captured college girl.  This cast for the most part for me are unknown.   But everyone in it are great.   The movie is directed perfectly by Eli Craig.  He had me fooled at first that this was gonna be just another crappy horror movie. 

I am not a huge fan of the horror genre but this is not your typical Wrong Turn type horror movie.   Unlike most horror movies it’s cleverly written and well acted.  I really like and recommend this movie.  I was laughing out loud and loving almost every minute.  It’s one of my most enjoyable movie experiences of 2012 so far.  I say Rent It NOW!
