「Chad Tries to Burn the Cabin」を読み解く

What's really going on

The scene is the whole movie in miniature: the college kids are certain they have found evil, and every piece of evidence that could correct them is read as more proof. Allison explains the truth plainly, and Chad answers with a diagnosis instead of a question: "It's called Stockholm syndrome." The joke is that the term is meant to explain why she likes her captors, when the real explanation is that there are no captors at all. Even the truce keeps the irony going, because the one thing both sides can agree to do is drink tea. The scene ends with a body-permed student trading insults with a hillbilly over Earl Grey, which is the film's idea of a ceasefire.

Theme

DeceptionChad believes a wrong story so completely that every truth Allison offers only makes him more certain.
Dark humorA rescue attempt, an accusation of Stockholm syndrome and a tea truce all collide in one scene.

このシーンについての質問

Why does Chad want to burn the cabin?

He believes Tucker and Dale are killers who have been murdering his friends. Burning the place down is his idea of destroying the evil and rescuing Allison.

Does Allison have Stockholm syndrome?

No. Chad uses the term because she defends Tucker and Dale, but the joke is that she is simply telling the truth and they are not captors.

Do the college kids believe Allison?

Not at first. They think she has been brainwashed, so her attempts to explain the misunderstanding only make Chad more determined.

How does the standoff end?

Dale offers to make tea and have everyone sit down and talk. The scene shifts from a fight to an awkward, half-comic truce over tea.

Why does Dale offer tea?

He wants to defuse the situation without violence. It is the same instinct that made him kind and awkward all along, now used to stop a fight.
