Tucker and Dale vs. Evil/YMMV


  • Complete Monster: Chad becomes one by the end of the film, throwing any possible redeeming qualities in the trash because he's so consumed by senseless hatred toward any "hillbilly" regardless of their moral character, and even being gleefully willing to try to murder the girl he claimed to care about in a very brutal way, all while having the gall to not consider himself evil. Even his Freudian Excuse for his hatred of hillbillies is proven to be insufficient and hypocritical by the end, something he's unable to process and accept.
    • Also, the hillbillies who initiated the Memorial Day Massacre. Particularly the leader who raped Chad's mother as well as burned the father alive while the still pregnant mother escaped...except it turns out that they didn't burn the father alive; the leader was Chad's true biological father, and Chad is his child by rape.
  • Moral Event Horizon: Chad crosses it when he kidnaps Allison and straps her to a Conveyor Belt O' Doom.
  • The Woobie: Dale and Allison qualify for this the most.
    • Jerkass Woobie: As self-absorbed and entitled as the other college kids were, their Cruel and Unusual Deaths were way more than they deserved, especially since they happened due to a ginormous misunderstanding. Subverted big time with Chad, who despite having a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds backstory, manages to negate any possible sympathy the audience could have for him with his Moral Event Horizon crossing actions and general unpleasantness.
