Summary: great, but needs some questions answered
Review: This movie was better than I expected to be, it very intense with a crazed story. There are some questions that I need answers. One is, the cannibles, were they human or zombies? At first I thought they were just a bunch of crazy humans, but then when they survived all the anarchy. There was just one question in mind. The next, the first person who dies first disappears, but they never show how he dies, just his dead body. Other than all that, the film was pretty good. Just bad acting but...what are you gonna do about it. It is a film about 6 teens going on a camping trip and gets into a car crash with somebody. When they when they go to a house of cannibles, it becomes hell. This film isn't so great, and not realy worth watching, but if you got nothing to do watch it.

Summary: Wrong Turn gets It Right!!
Review: Wrong Turn is a solid horror flick, keeping you in suspense pretty much throughout the entire movie. When 4 friends decide to blow off work and take their friend Jessie(Eliza Dushku) camping to get her mind off her recent break up with her boyfriend they find themselves in trouble when they run over some barbed wire and are stranded on the side of a backwoods road. At the same time Chris Flynn(Desmond Harrington) finds himself late to a big interview. Taking the same backroad he runs straight into the off roaded vehicle. As they look for help they come upon a house of back woods cannibals. Desperate and fearing for their lives, the horror surges as they find themselves relentlessly pursued by a force of evil beyond their imagination! The acting is decent, for a horror film, the suspense is great, the feeling is eerie and there are some pretty nice killing scenes. While watching this movie I couldn't help but realize this movie somewhat resembled "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" which is one of my favorites and maybe that's why I enjoyed this particular film. Regardless if you are a fan of the horror genre make sure you see this movie, I don't think you'll be disappointed!

Summary: Stupid people
Review: Why can't we have a horror movie where the victims show a modicum of intelligence. That would make it even scarier. This one is a by the numbers, knock down the preppies.

Summary: Guilty Fun.
Review: I rented this on a whim and now want to buy it, along with both soundtracks (even though the soundtrack is missing the key songs heard in the movie, which is weird.) 'Wrong Turn' truly surprises as a B-level horror movie. The comparison to `Deliverance' is unfair since the acting talent in Wrong Turn is sub-par at best. Rather compare this to say `Friday the Thirteenth' and 'Wrong Turn' becomes a far better movie. There are some inventive killings along with some truly tense moments created while the lost teenagers engage with one messed up inbreed family in the Virginia mountains. The first quarter of the movie is amateurish but keep watching as this movie turns into a gut wrenching (literally) fight for survival. The very end is a bit hammy and sets up for a sequel. Side note: The main male actor kinda resembles a young Lee Majors.

Summary: Decent plot but movie leaves a lot to be desired.
Review: The movie "Wrong Turn" had potential as the plot is pretty good. A group of 20 something young people have a car accident and are forced to walk through a backwoods area in rural West Virginia. There is a clan of inbred cannibal like barbarians that inhabit the area and of course, they would love to have these youngsters for dinner.
Well, the acting in this movie leaves a lot to be desired, but so does the directing. The characters are stupid and a large portion of the movie deals with these youngsters swinging in the trees like Tarzan. Basically, what we have here is a decent plot and a decent beginning but a failure by the director/screenplay writer to develop the movie into an effective horror film.
As I said, the acting is subpar and the more you see these inbred barbarians, the more they become laughable and ridiculous rather than scary. In fact, they really look absolutely ridiculous, especially that stupid one running around shooting his bow and arrow all over the place.
Overall, this is not a very good horror movie and I would not recommend it to anyone really. If you want to see a good horror movie about murderous barbarians with a taste for human flesh then watch the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, one of the greatest horror movies of all-time.
The movie "Wrong Turn" is named correctly because basically the movie takes a wrong turn from what could have been a decent horror flick down a road leading it into the relm of poor horror films with lame scenes and stupid characters.

Summary: Not bad at all, but...
Review: ...a little short. The end of the movie came so sudden that the ending itself became the biggest "shocker" of a movie that starts out to seem something like a B-horrormovie -but somewhere in the middle manages to make a "right turn", and becomes very watchable indeed. But because of the lenght of the movie it never really managed to build itself up to a remembarable climax. I've seen far better movies (that includes the remake of "The Texas Chainmassacre" with Jessica Biel), but "Wrong Turn" is a bit original -and becomes that way rather "artistical", if you get my meaning (something about the filming, and the various angle-experimenting -simple, but characteristic). The acting is ok, the ending a bit "unworthy" than the rest of "Wrong Turn".
But I bought the movie, and I don't regret it!

Summary: Pretty Pathetic
Review: I was hyped for this flick because I like Deliverance.
After I seen this movie I realized Wrong Turn wasn't
much like it at all. Deliverance was about 4 city boys
going to the woods and two of them getting mentally
tortured and having to coverup the murders of the two
hicks they killed. This movie is a Texas Chainsaw Mass-
acre rip-off. It's just a stop and go gore fest with
lame looking hick folk. Come on! These guys don't even
look human! They look like some monster trolls or some
thing like that.
It's just boring and uninteresting. There was one scene
that I really liked with an axe and a tree. Don't want
to give it all away. Other than that, the movie was just
a bore. I expected more from a movie that was supposed
to be out of the Deliverance mold.

Summary: Above average inbred cannibal hillbilly saga.
Review: Sunday, February 13, 2005 / 4 of 5 / Above average inbred cannibal hillbilly saga.
Eliza Dushku stars in this actually pretty good take on the genre popularized by Deliverance. As usual we get a group of good looking kids stranded on the back roads of West Virginia. Why anyone would be in the back woods of West Virginia in the first place is beyond me, but at any rate they are soon met by the male protagonist, a budding med student. Members of the party are soon dispatched by a trio of good ol' mountain boys. You know the type, deformed after generations of inbreeding, super strong, tough to kill, wily, good hunters, non-discriminatory eaters. The plot is pretty linear and straight forward for this type of film, but it delivers a decently taut experience. Above average.

Summary: Turn Around And Leave
Review: Why, why, why, why, why, why do people like this movie? This film is a BLATANT rip-off of the 'Texas Chainsaw' storyline, tweaked just a little bit.
A group of attractive young people get lost in the woods when somebody sets a trap for them in the middle of the road, blowing out their tires. They then get chased and offed by a group of hideous inbred cannibals. Sounds like a magnificant B-movie, right? No.
I just had to write a review of this after seeing this on many a horror fan's list on this site, and I just don't get it. Why do they think this ranks up with 'Nightmare on Elm Street', or 'Friday the 13th', or even '28 Days Later'? This film contains no suspense, laughably goofy makeup on the inbreds, and it's just not that good. A lot of horror movies turn out to be just entertaining, and not scary at all, but this isn't even entertaining. Well, maybe, MAYBE if there's nothing else to watch but like Van Damme's new romantic melodrama or something, you could put this in. I'm just warning you...
