This could have been a half decent cross between a Romero zombie movie and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre but in the end the gore is so ridiculously overdone and the script so lame, that it undermines all sense of suspense.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 30, 2006

Headed in only one direction: straight into the toilet.

| Original Score: D | May 4, 2005

The scares are legit, making this one of the better pure sit-in-the-dark-and-tell-a-scary-story horror flicks to come down the pike in quite some time.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 25, 2003

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 24, 2003

While this movie doesn't have the warped sensibilities of 1977's similarly plotted The Hills Have Eyes, it has decent performances and genuine suspense.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 5, 2003

It's gruesome and nasty and a heck of a lot of fun for people who get a kick out of Fangoria.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 5, 2003

A blood-simple backwoods spatterfest that makes shameless use of the same old antirural moonshine Hollywood's been bootlegging for decades.

| Original Score: C- | Jun 4, 2003

Lazy would-be horror film.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 2, 2003

A negative pickup by Fox, dumped into theaters on Friday without benefit of press previews, Wrong Turn is steeped only in frightless torpor.

| Jun 2, 2003

Schmidt makes us flinch the old-fashioned way -- by giving us a box seat to the unspeakable.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 2, 2003

The plot unfolds like a slasher-by -the-numbers kit.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 2, 2003

Suffers a fate similar to that of many other horror and supernatural thrillers released in the last decade: It leaves you with the feeling that you're watching an episode of The X-Files, only Mulder and Scully never show up.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 2, 2003

It was a mistake to have one of the characters refer to the film Deliverance in this low-rent horror flick, because all it does is remind us of much better cinematic efforts.

Full Review | Jun 2, 2003

The sole saving grace of Wrong Turn is its honesty. You get exactly what you expect -- blood, guts and people being taken to the killing floor. But just because it's honest doesn't make it good.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 2, 2003

A stultifying blend of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, boot camp, and maybe The Blair Witch Project, Wrong Turn is profoundly less than the sum of its influences.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 2, 2003

This sleazy slice of hicksploitation features a band of inbred mountain men so monstrous and foul, they make the toothless hillbillies of Deliverance look like the Vienna Boys Choir.

Full Review | Jun 2, 2003

This was already tired stuff when cult fave Sleepaway Camp came out in 1983, and it's downright comatose by now.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 1, 2003

Dull, humorless slasher flick.

Full Review | Original Score: 0/4 | Jun 1, 2003

To call Wrong Turn tedious and uninspired is to be kind.
