‘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’

Eli Craig has faced countless challenges trying to develop a sequel to his cult classic *Tucker & Dale vs. Evil*, with each attempt ultimately failing due to a variety of obstacles. Despite its modest box office success, the movie has yet to find its way to the big screen in a satisfying follow-up. Craig humorously reflects on how many versions of the project have "died" or been overshadowed by other commitments, and even hinted at a potential spinoff series as an alternative path forward—though it seems like that creative exploration is now just another chapter in the director's ongoing saga of missed opportunities.
