SYNOPSIS
Evil just messed with the wrong hillbillies.
Tucker & Dale, two loveable West Virginian hillbillies (Tudyk & Labine) 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, like all hillbillies, must be demented backwoods killers, Tucker & Dale’s vacation takes a bloody & hilarious turn for the worse.

DESCRIPTION
Two boys. One can’t remember. The other can’t forget.
“The summer I was eight years old, five hours disappeared from my life. Five hours, lost, gone without a trace…”
Brian Lackey, a troubled 18 year-old, was once a scared, introverted kid growing up in the small town. Plagued by nightmares and terrified of the dark, Brian believes he may have been the victim of an alien abduction. Neil McCormick is the ultimate beautiful outsider. Wise beyond his years and curious about his developing sexuality, Neil found what he perceived to be love with his Little League baseball coach. Now, ten years later, he is a teenage hustler, nonchalant about the dangerous path his life is taking. Eventually, Neil’s pursuit of what he thinks is love leads him to New York City, while Brian’s search for what happened leads him to Neil – together, both ultimately discover the truth.
Directed by Gregg Araki and based on Scott Heim’s acclaimed novel, MYSTERIOUS SKIN explores the hearts and minds of two very different boys who aren’t as different as they first appear.
Directed by Gregg Araki
Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt; Brady Corbet; Michelle Trachtenberg
