Tucker and Dale vs Evil Page #5

Synopsis: Two lovable West Virginian hillbillies are headed to their "fixer-upper" vacation cabin to drink some beer, do some fishin', and have a good time. But when they run into a group of preppy college kids who assume from their looks that they must be in-bred, chainsaw-wielding killers, Tucker & Dale's vacation takes a bloody and hilarious turn for the worse.

- but I remember everything I ever heard.

- That sounds pretty smart to me.

No, trust me, I'm stupid.

I barely even made it past the third grade.

Oh, that doesn't mean anything.

There's a difference

between education and intellect.

Yeah?

So, um, what is it that

you study in college?

I'm getting my Bachelor's

degree in psychology.

Oh, a Bach... Oh.

So, what kind of work

would you do with that?

Oh, I don't know. I, um...

I-I have these stupid dreams.

Dreams are not stupid.

Well, um...I just think that so many of the

major problems and conflicts in the world

are caused by a lack of communication,

you know?

- Yeah.

- And I just...

I just always thought that

I'd make a really good therapist.

No, don't! Don't!

Yeah, my parents say the same thing.

I should probably just give up.

No. I think you could do whatever you want.

It's just, that beam is a little bit rickety.

Yeah, you could have just

pushed that thing right over.

Hey, hey.

Oh, my God, Tucker,

what happened to your face?

I sawed into a bees' nest.

Why?

I didn't do it on purpose, you idiot.

I might have avoided it

if you were out there helping me!

Yeah.

We came out here to work...

not sit around playing stupid board games!

It was my fault, I...

I suckered him into playing.

No, that's not true. It was my fault.

How about I come over there

and pull those stingers out of your face?

Then I'll help you with whatever you want?

- All right, I'd like that. Thank you.

- OK.

Let me help.

Wow, they really did a number on you.

- Be careful. Be careful.

- They really got you.

Hi.

I saw your friend out there.

He must be allergic to bees or something,

because he was runnin' like a bat outta hell.

- I should go out there and find them...

- No, no! That's... No!

No, you need to rest,

so we'll go find your friends.

- But I can just...

- No. No buts, OK?

We'll go find your friends. You should relax.

Tucker and Dale are on the case.

Ain't that right, Tucker?

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, yeah.

- Yeah. Good man. OK.

Dale, just...

just be careful, OK?

My friends can be kind of judgmental.

I'm gonna let Tucker

do most of the talking, anyway.

He can win over just about anybody,

can't you? Real people person.

OK, here we go.

You just relax, OK? Get some rest.

- They f***ing killed him, man.

- They left his body here as a message.

- Yeah, "Stay the f*** out of our woods."

- I can't believe this is happening.

Would you f***ing quit it with this thing?

It doesn't work out here!

We gotta get to the road

and try to catch a ride out of here.

We don't need a ride out of here.

Don't you get it?

This is what it's all about.

It's us against them.
