6. Gremlins (1984) Tucker and Dale VS. Evil (2010)
Both movies are in the Comedy Horror Genre but are not very similar. Gremlins
has villains in it throughout the film whereas the villain in Tucker and Dale VS.
Evil does not come clear until the end, during the rest of the movie the villain is
mistaken as Tucker and Dale themselves. Gremlins is a proper horror with
comedic elements and Tucker and Dale VS. Evil is a parody.
