‘Tucker & Dale vs. Evil’ Director Calls David Zaslav the ‘Slayer of All Cinema’ For Putting the ‘Final Nail in the Coffin’ For ‘T & D’ Spinoff Series: ‘Just Cancelled All Production’


'Tucker & Dale vs. Evil' director Eli Craig says David Zaslav put the 'final nail in the coffin' for his 'Tucker & Dale' spinoff series.

For director Eli Craig, developing a follow-up to his 2010 cult classic “Tucker & Dale vs. Evil” has not been easy. In a recent sitdown with SlashFilm, Craig said he’s made many attempts at developing a sequel, but every version, “for one reason or another,” has failed to make it to the big screen. “We almost did a TV show with it that was on TNT/TBS, and you’ll be happy to know that David Zaslav, the slayer of all cinema [laughs], came in and put the final nail in the coffin for ‘Tucker & Dale’ as we were about to go to series, and just cancelled all production.”
