History Characters / TuckerAndDaleVsEvil

->Played by: Katrina Bowden

->Played by: Chelan Simmons

->Played by: Tyler Labine

* MeaningfulName: "Chad" is stereotypically associated with douchey, entitled frat-bro types. Needless to say, he upholds his name's reputation to a T. Neatly expanded upon with Allison. "Chad" is stereotypically paired with "Stacey", a pretty but dumb girl who worships the ground "Chad" walks on. Chad thinks this will be Allison, for whom none of the tropes apply and he doesn't get anywhere close to a relationship with her. Allison is NOT Stacey, regardless of what Chad wants.

* MeaningfulName: See the similar listing in Chad's section below. Allison is not Stacey.

* FreudianExcuse: His hatred for hillbillies stems from the fact that, as a child, he learned that his father was killed in a massacre orchestrated by two hillbillies when he was camping with his friends and Chad's mom. During the climax his hatred is made ten times worse when he learns that the hillbilly who killed his father also raped his mother, causing his conception.

* ManipulativeBastard: Takes advantage of Alison's kidnapping and uses his friends' stupidity to advance his goals of murdering Tucker and Dale.

* {{Adorkable}}: His interactions with Allison make him come across this way.

* TooDumbToLive: While it's expected that college students often make poor decisions in horror films, this crew takes ineptness to a whole new level.

* LudicrousGibs: Given that the paramedics mistakenly gave Tucker one of ''her'' fingers to re-attach, the cabin's explosion didn't leave a pretty scene.

* HanlonsRazor: Both of them are decent people just trying to clean up their new home, but the teens believe they are stereotypical homicidal hillbillies from the horror movies. Their "crimes" are really just a result of them being in the wrong place at the wrong time [[spoiler:as the teens accidentally kill themselves.]]

* HanlonsRazor: Both of them are decent people trying to make a living in a new home, but the teens believe they are stereotypical homicidal hillibies from the horror movies. [[spoiler: Their "crimes" are really just a result of them being in the wrong place at the wrong time as the teens accidentally kill themselves. The only death they are somewhat accountable for is the sheriff's; as they didn't undo a trap when they should have but they did try to warn him before he leaned against the beam that set it off.]]

* CigaretteOfAnxiety: She smokes when she's especially nervous. When she's stuck in the flaming cabin and knows she's going to burn to death, she lights up one last time.

* CowardlyLion: Was more than willing to leave the group behind to go get help but does try to defend them when he thinks Tucker and Dale killed the sheriff.

* CharacterDeath: Screws up his flying tackle of Tucker and lands headfirst in a wood chipper.

* AmbiguouslyGay: Asks if having a recurring dream about sucking a dick but never actually doing it is gay. His friends say yes.
* CharacterDeath: Is accidentally hit by an oil lamp thrown by Chad setting him aflame. Initially, it's just his leg and not life-threatening but then Chloe makes it worse by dousing him with the first liquid she could grab, which happened to be highly flammable paint thinner sending Jason into a full-body fire.
* LovableCoward: Cowers for a majority of the film until attempting a [[BigDamnHeroes Big Damn Rescue]] at the climax.
* TokenMinority: The only African-American guy of the group.

* DumbBlonde: Acts entitled like the rest of her party but seems to have no common sense.

* PinkMeansFeminine: Her shirt is pink.

* TokenMinority: Along with Jason.

* WeHardlyKnewYe: The second to die, and not even the most notable death of the scene.

* FreudianExcuse: His hatred for hillbillies stems from the fact that, as a child, he learned that his father was killed in a massacre orchestrated by two hillbillies when he was camping with his friends and Chad's mom. [[s

* {{Determinator}}: Nothing will stop him from killing the hillbillies. Not even the deaths of his supposed friends.

* MadeOfIron: He can take an absurd amount of punishment. [[spoiler: As any good slasher villain should.]]
* ManipulativeBastard: Takes advantage of Alison's kidnapping and uses his friends' stupidity to advance his goals of murdering Tucker and Dale by manipulating them into believing that they are evil.

* NoSympathy: Towards the other kids when they get freaked out by all the deaths, and reluctant to continue. He flat out tells Chloe that he thinks she deserves to die for being unable to handle the situation (which doesn't improve her fragile state).
* RedRightHand: The left side of his face is horrifically burned to TwoFaced quality.
* TragicBigot: Albeit not a sympathetic one. Chad's murderous hatred of all hillbillies stems from the fact that a group of them killed his father.
* WeaksauceWeakness: Asthmatic and allergic to Chamomile.
* {{Yandere}}: For Allison, which is only made worse by the fact that she begins developing feelings for Dale.

* FinalGirl: Due to the fact that all the college kids who tried to kill Tucker and Dale end up dead, Allison is the only one of the girls to survive.
* NiceGirl: She's a kind young woman who wants to become a therapist and help people. She also fully admits she was wrong to judge Dale and Tucker by their appearance, and ''tries'' to tell her friends that the hillbillies are actually nice guys.

* TheFettered: Most of them get freaked out by what's happening pretty quickly and find the idea of escalating the situation further crazy. The exception is Chad, who drags the remaining kids into one last bloody fiasco anyway.

* DecoyProtagonist: Turns out Tucker and Dale are the real heroes.
* DwindlingParty: Throughout four encounters with the hillbillies.

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: The injuries and subsequent deaths these teens endure get pretty gruesome.

* ShipperOnDeck: Supports Dale talking to Allison.

* PhotographicMemory: Remembers every trivial fact he reads or hears.

* BookDumb: Dale says he never made past the third grade but can remember any trivial fact he reads or hears.

* HiddenDepths: Is a boss at trivia due to his ability to remember every trivial detail he hears or reads.

* DoggedNiceGuy: He likes Allison, but is petrified by her beauty.
