Don't tease me with a Tucker and Dale reference without them being in the movie. I need another Tucker and Dale movie!

The book isn't particularly great. It's got a neat premise, but the execution is lacking. I can see it working real well in terms of a comedic bend though.

EDIT: Also, that book being labeled YA is hilarious to me. It's got a lot of language, some sexual references, and a shit ton of gore. I sincerely hope they release it as a R rated film since some of the kills can end up being pretty fun/satisfying.

Alan said there was a script for a sequel, but it was terrible and they most likely won't move forward with it.

As with most horror comedies, I believe it works better as a stand alone film anyways. You can't recapture that magic (Evil Dead being an exception).

This could easily be the title of a comedy as well

I cant wait. Tucker and Dale was great. The kid jumping into the wood chipper is soo fucking funny.

We want a second Tucker and Dale. Not some slasher. Give us T&D slasher and we’re good.

If you enjoyed “Tucker and Dale vs Evil”, you will enjoy “Little Monsters” (2019) with Lupita Nyong’o. It’s streaming on Hulu.

I hope it turns out better than Little Evil. Not terrible, just was kind of lacking.

I read this book out of boredom on a library e-checkout during lockdown. The setup is pretty good for a YA style thriller, but the climax becomes so utterly outlandish, I am legit curious how they go about adapting it for the screen. It's like the writer just got bored with their own book and went nuts.

I'm struggling to think of a YA title that doesn't feature those things. That's like a list of the three things every teenager wants to read about.

Very excited for this. Clown in a Cornfield was a great popcorn slasher and has been begging for an adaptation.

What do you consider the third Evil Dead?

Army of Darkness, the third film in the series?

Evil Dead (2013), the third film with "Evil Dead" in the title?

Or Ash Vs. Evil Dead, the third iteration of the Evil Dead franchise?

If anyone else is like me and seeing this post is enough to convince you to watch it this weekend, it’s on Prime.

After refurbishing the lake cabin, Dale finds out he’s the last member of an inheritance. An antebellum mansion deep in Dixie country. As the duo tries to make repairs, they’re bedeviled by an actual cult trying to get into the basement and retrieve the McGuffin.

It’s gonna be Young Adult. I have the book, and was disappointed to learn this.

The book is a blast and far more violent than I thought it would be for YA, to the point where I don't know what the difference really is between something like that and an 'adult' book.

Clown in a Cornfield got a ton of recommendations over on r/horrorlit, and I put it off for ages because of the YA tag. Ended up giving in and reading it - it's fantastic. The only reason I can think of it getting the YA tag is because it features teenagers as the main characters - just like nearly every slasher movie ever made...

The YA tag is definitely not deserved for this book

Make a new Tucker and Dale with a different theme. Aliens, skin walkers or something crazy. Best horror comedy. We need more horror comedy.

Ticket & Dale was undeniably great... but the director's next film, Little Evil on Netflix, was not. I don't know which one was the fluke. I'll remain hopeful that this is good, but not confidently.
