Revisiting the teenage slasher movies of the 1970s and 1980s, WRONG TURN is a tense, suspense-packed horror film starring Eliza Dushku (BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER). When Chris...
more...(Desmond Harrington) is late for a job interview, he drives speedily through a backwoods dirt road, and winds up in a head-on collision with a group of teenage campers. As the cars are write-offs, the group has no option but to trek through the woods and seek help. Stumbling upon a mysterious cabin, the unhappy campers soon realise they are in grave danger when they happen upon a mixture of grotesque oddities and body parts, soon followed by the return of the freakish inhabitants of the disgusting abode. The intensity builds as the inbred, kill-crazy cabin dwellers go after Chris and the campers, leading to some grisly scenes in the dense woodland, and a series of brutal, bloody set-pieces from director Rob Schmidt.
WRONG TURN takes similar backwoods horror flicks like TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE and THE HILLS HAVE EYES as its inspiration, providing visceral thrills aplenty, and the requisite amount of dumb teenage characters. Never lapsing into self-parody, the film should appeal to older horror movie fans keen to revisit the movies of their youth, and younger fans eager to witness some modern-day stalk-and-slash mayhem!

A bit of a joke, really
Review of Wrong Turn DVD by moo-cow

Advantages: Good for a laugh, with a good-looking cast and good effects.
Disadvantages: Um, it's supposed to be a horror film? Damn. That's not good.

...too-pretty brats who took The Wrong Turn - hence the title - and ended up lost in the middle of nowhere. Serves them right, I reckon. No surprises, no suspense, no action - and you see the oh-so predictable (and nauseating) love interest coming a mile away. I wanted a blood fest with screams and chases through dark woods galore. I was expecting lots of stumbling and flowing hair, that's par for the course, isn't it? But all I got was a stitch from ... Read review

Advantages: Gory, Horror fans will love it

Left or Right?
Review of Wrong Turn DVD by JamieT123

Advantages: Tension, Suspense, Ghore
Disadvantages: Predictable

A group of friends get stranded in the back woods of Virginia. They find that they are not alone... They become hunted by cannibalistic mountain men and try to escape. This film is very similar to The Hills Have Eyes. Overall I think its a good film and will entertain those who enjoy this particular genre of film. Full of ghore, blood and guts, this film is definitely not for the faint-hearted, although The Hills have Eyes is worse on that part. Considering ... Read review

Wrong Turn
Review of Wrong Turn DVD by Mimicakes

Advantages: Interesting idea, very thrilling
Disadvantages: Not a very long movie

When I first saw a trailer for this movie it was on a movie website. I go to movies with an open mind, but as I missed this one, I bought it on DVD in stead. It was an excellent buy. The price was affordable, the special features are plentiful, there is even a commentary with the stars of the film (Desmond Harrington, Ghost Ship; Eliza Dushku, Buffy the Vampire Slayer). The main genre in this movie is horror, with secondary genres including ... Read review

Wrong Turn - Right to watch
Review of Wrong Turn DVD by stargatesg1uk

Advantages: an exciting horror flick
Disadvantages: DVD extras not so good

I have read and heard many mixed reviews of this film. I didn't go to the cinema to see it, but I waited for it to come out on DVD. A friend lent it to me and I sat down on a Sunday evening with all the lights switched off and watched. I was more than pleased with this film, it kept my attention throughout the entire film and I wished it could carry on when it finished. Wrong Turn is what you would get if you mixed The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and ... Read review

So very wrong
Review of Wrong Turn DVD by atytyut2434

Advantages: scary
Disadvantages: a bit on the annoying side

Take a trip to the back of beyond & start having a very bad day. Far too much like a lot of other horror flicks in this genre. People being chased through a forest by people who want to kill them for no reason at all. Right. We start with 2 rock climbers getting killed and you know the film is going to be pretty blood ridden. Then we see a guy in a hurry to an interview. He isn't ever going to get there but that's not important. It's the fact that ... Read review

hard core horrer
Review of Wrong Turn DVD by collegekidlet

Advantages: gory and quite intense parts
Disadvantages: some parts are too obvious

...human being that takes the WRONG TURN. Film has its quantity of deaths and very gory detail for example in one part you'll see somebodies head getting hacked off. This has got to be one of the recent horror films that have thought deeply about the way in each person was going to die because there are some real unsuspect deaths. All in all i highly reccomend this film to anyone who injoys horror films and can also tolerate the slow parts in the film. ... Read review

Don't go down to the woods today...
Review of Wrong Turn DVD by ellaj15

Advantages: blood, gore
Disadvantages: not original

...find them, do they escape? Wrong Turn is definitely one of the better ones. If your after, a good horror that makes you keep watching then this one is for you. If you don't like the stereotypical teen horror, fine another film! PLOT - Desmond Harrington (from Holes) is on his way to a job interview when he hits a traffic jam, so not wanting to be late, he finds a shortcut. He then literally bumps in to a Jeep and both cars are badly damaged. Two ... Read review

Dont take a Wrong Turn on the way 2 the film store
Review of Wrong Turn DVD by spikkle2004

Advantages: Inbreds, Black Hills, Eliza Dushku, what more do you want?
Disadvantages: none

Wrong Turn is a gem, what a brilliant horror, its exactly what i expected and more, it is just what you need when you want a good friday night! It is based in the Black Hills of West Virginia when a man on the way to his job interview (Desmond Harrington) takes a shortcut and...runs into, some babes in the wood! (literally, bar jeremy sisto and Kevin Segers) Now the fun begins when we meet Eliza Dushku's character, another independant role. As ... Read review

MILD HORROR COME THRILLER
Review of Wrong Turn DVD by keza1

Advantages: SOMETHING TO WATCH ON A COLD WINTERY NIGHT
Disadvantages: BIT UNREAL

I watched Wrong Turn directed by Rob Schmidt, the other day and it was one of the better films that i have watched in a while. If you like horrors come thrillers then this is right up your street. I'm not saying that this is the best film ever made but it is not rubbish either. The acting for different actors is a bit lame but that is just my point of view it happens in quite a lot of films that you just pin point one person and don't think much ... Read review
