First things first, Wrong Turn and Wrong Turn 2 were good films. There was good acting and good scripts in those movies. So please, if all you ever see is Wrong Turn 3, don't write off the first two.
So what is wrong with this pathetic excuse for a movie.... bad plot, bad script, bad directing, bad characters, bad actors, bad bad bad. It's all just horrible. It took a good idea and took a shit on it. I am less pissed off about wasting an hour and a half of my life than I am pissed about the fact that Wrong Turn 3 has taken a huge steaming dump on two quality movies from the horror genre. This pathetic excuse of a movie should be stricken from the Wrong Turn universe. And please don't make another!
If you wish to know the plot, keep reading. If you don't want to waste anymore time on this filth, then you know everything you need to know about it. The plot turns around a group of escaped convicts forcing a prison guard to navigate them through the backwoods of West Virginia. The con who planned the escape is a Mexican dude who tries to act tough and kill the hillbillies and everyone else around him too. In Wrong Turn 2, we had Henry Rollins giving a superb performance an effective "tough guy." But here, we just have another bad actor pretending to be tough.
The back of the movie cover says the hillbilly family. In saying the word family, you'd think they meant a family. But, in this movie, there are only 2 hillbillies, one of which is dispatched quickly. Instead of having a big ole explosion, you'd think the filmmakers would spring for an actor to play another hillbilly.
This whole film was a wrong turn for the Wrong Turn franchise. I'm sorry. And, I say that to the fans who actually liked the first two. Screw this movie. 1.5 out of 5.
