Sundance ’10: College Kid’s Blood in New ‘Tucker & Dale vs Evil’ Clips!
In addition to our exclusive clip from Eli Craig’s Tucker & Dale vs Evil, beyond the break you’ll find a slew of new footage from the film that’s set to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival next weekend. Tucker & Dale vs. Evil (trailer) is a backwoods comedy of horrific errors in which two unsuspecting buddies, Tucker (Alan Tudyk) and Dale (Tyler Labine), fall victim to the crazed machinations of a group of spring breakers who have mistaken them for backwoods killers. When Dale shelves his phobia of the opposite sex to rescue one of the college co-eds, Allison (Katrina Bowden), from drowning, all her friends mistake him for a bearded psychopath hauling their friend away to a shack in the middle of the woods. In trying to rescue their friend, the college co-eds continually off themselves one by one and Tucker and Dale try to figure out why these college kids are killing themselves all over Tucker’s property!
