Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Tobias Burrows
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Wrong Turn has become a very big thing,from theatrical releases,to straight to DVD sequels that did'int quite make it,I'm luckily here,yes me,your favourite reviewer,to review all of them. So,Wrong Turn follows the story of a man going for a job interview only to crash in to a caravan on a deserted road,with him and the group lost,they decide to team up only for three hillbilly brothers to come out and kill each one,one by one. Wrong Turn,at the time,when it came out in 2003,was a very original idea,the only two really things that matched it were Cannibal Holocaust and Hills Have Eyes. The film has a very slow pace but it does make up for it when somebody slowly dies like that arrow death,that was cool. Eliza Dushku,or whatever her name was,was brilliant in this,there were scenes were it felt like she was actually going to sh*t herself. Wrong Turn is a brilliant horror film I advise you should see

In the opening scene, two climbers are killed by something lurking in the woods. When a bunch of young people try to avoid a traffic jam on the highway by taking a small road across the forest, they find out it is a Wrong Turn for anyone who takes it, as a trap with barbed wire was already waiting for them...A decent horror flick, although it surprises that it should be followed by so many sequels. It just hasn't got enough novelty value for that, since it's based on the same old "who knows what's hiding in those dark woods" story. I read here that 'Wrong Turn' was produced with 12 million bucks, whereas they spent only between 1 and 4 million each on the sequels, so if they look cheaper, that's understandable. Several of them are still worth watching though. I voted 8/4/6/7/5/4 for the 6 movies.

Wrong Turn certainly isn't a bad movie, it's just plagued by some mistakes. First of all, good lord, the inbred killers in the film are freaky looking, which is a good thing, they really needed to be, and the chanting and banshee like screaming they do is just the icing on the cake. The violence was a bit too graphic for my personal taste, but it wasn't as bad as some others I've seen. The runtime was pretty short, but it fit this movie, any longer and it would've been dragging. The actors did a pretty good job with their roles, I did enjoy that. The action scenes were pretty good and high octane, running, screaming and wondering if the character is gonna make it through alive. I just didn't like how some of the scenes in the middle sorta drug on a bit, that was probably it's biggest flaw. Overall, I give Wrong Turn a 6/10. Oh and they should've left out that very last part in the middle of the credits, didn't care for that.

Just seen this for the second time since it came out long ago, and its still a pretty decent horror movie. It doesn't break the mold but its definitely enjoyable.It features a pretty good cast, many of whom went on to become relatively big stars later on.. They are all good actors, none of which were annoying, so you weren't craving for them to be killed sooner rather than later!There is quite a few memorable nail-biting scenes and the tension is good, with some decent kills.Overall opinion: An above average horror film.Advice: Stay well clear of the sequel, and most likely the other ones too!
