Heads up.「The Sheriff Questions Tucker and Dale」を読み解く
What's really going on
The scene works because the sheriff is the first outsider to hear the story plainly, and even he cannot make it sound sane. He listens, repeats it back and lands on the line the film has been building toward: "Looks can be deceiving." It is meant for Tucker and Dale, but it applies just as much to the audience, who have been laughing at exactly this gap between appearance and truth. The scene then does what the movie does best: the sheriff, the one man with real authority, is taken out by an accident, and the two harmless suspects immediately fall to blaming each other. Their argument about the beam is less about the sheriff than about their own fear. The comedy and the threat stay in the same room, which is the film's whole tone.
Theme
DeceptionThe sheriff warns that appearances mislead, and the film proves him right about everyone in the scene.
JusticeThe only person with the authority to judge the case is taken out by a random accident before he can act.

このシーンについての質問
Does the sheriff believe Tucker and Dale?
No. He makes them repeat the story, points out that nobody would believe it, and warns them about manslaughter charges, even though they are telling the truth.
What does the sheriff mean by 'looks can be deceiving'?
He is answering their claim that they do not look like killers. He means appearance proves nothing, which is ironic because he is actually judging them by how guilty they look.
Why does the sheriff go into the bedroom?
He wants to see the girl they say is inside and unconscious. He assumes they have hurt her, when in fact Dale only knocked her out by accident while trying to save her.
What happens to the sheriff?
A beam falls on him while he is in the cabin. It is another accident that looks exactly like murder, which is the joke the film keeps repeating.
Why do Tucker and Dale start fighting afterward?
The sheriff's injury looks like their fault again, so they panic and blame each other over the beam they never fixed. Their fight shows how badly they handle pressure.
