Known for its inbred cannibals, brutally gory kills, and copious amounts of unusually graphic nude/intimate scenes, the Wrong Turn franchise is truly unlike any other. What started as nothing more than a simple, straightforward slasher has evolved into a seven movie franchise that has a reputation for being trashy, which it kind of owns. So, with the release of 2021’s reboot (which is vastly different), … Continue reading Ranking Every “Wrong Turn” Movie

(Spoilers Ahead – You’ve Been Warned) Just Desert The episode opens with … Continue reading The Stand: “The Walk” Review
If it doesn’t involved inbred cannibals, annoyingly unlikeable characters, and oodles of gratuitous nude scenes, is it even really a Wrong Turn movie? This latest reboot from the screenwriter of the original movie (Alan McElroy) seeks to answer this question.
