Review: Wrong Turn (2021) Is A Bloody Good Movie

Every time I hear the words remake or reboot I cringe. In fact, I usually avoid them altogether, but after watching the new Wrong Turn movie that may be changing. It’s proof that they can be better than the original. The trailer piqued my interest so I decided what the hell, I’ll give it a shot, and boy am I glad I did. In the film, while hiking the Appalachian Trail, a group of friends begins stumbling into traps. Believing that someone is out to kill them, one of the group kills a hunter, setting off a disturbing chain of events. The Wrong Turn franchise is known for its brutal kills from both the inbred hillbilly family and their nasty traps. In Mike P. Nelson’s new version we get the traps that we’ve come to expect and the kills are still brutal, but it’s a very different movie than the original. While the 2003 original has its own unique charm,

In the film, “Backwoods terror and never-jangling suspense meet when Jen (Charlotte Vega) and a group of friends set out to hike the Appalachian Trail. Despite warnings to stick to the trail, the hikers stray off course—and cross onto land inhabited by The Foundation, a hidden community of mountain dwellers who use deadly means to protect their way of life. Suddenly under siege, Jen and her friends seem headed to the point of no return— unless Jen’s father (Golden Globe nominee Matthew Modine) can reach them in time.” Damian Maffei (The Strangers: Prey at Night, Haunt), Bill Sage (“Hap and Leonard”), Emma Dumont (“The Gifted”), Chaney Morrow (Haunt), Valerie Jane Parker (“Greenleaf”), and David Hutchinson (“American

Nelson follows a “cross-country hiking expedition that finds a group of friends in the land of an inclusive society, where they soon discover they are under a different law, and may not be the victims they thought they were.” Alan McElroy who wrote the original penned the script for the reboot that stars Emma Dumont, Charlotte Vega, Dylan McTee, Adrian Favela, David Hutchinson, Adain Bradley, Cory Scott Allen, and Vardaan Arora.

Movie Review: The Lodgers is a Must See for Lovers of Gothic Thrillers!

In a small Irish village, orphan twins Rachel (Charlotte Vega) and Edward (Bill Milner) live a reclusive existence within the confines of their decaying mansion (handed down through generations of their family) which no stranger may enter. Also the place is cursed (as all of the previous heir’s parents have drowned together in a lake on the estate’s grounds) and haunted…and the spirits are gettin’ a tad restless… Anyhow, one day Rachel (more adventurous than her sullen sibling who has never left the house since their parents died years previous) strolls to town and meets Sean (Eugene Simon); an outcast soldier just back from World War 1. Rachel gets a case of the horny’s for Sean (seems masturbation and an incestuous relationship with Eddie ain’t cuttin’ the mustard anymore)…which creates an interesting love triangle to say the least. Complicating our protagonists’ lives further; they may have to sell the house as the family’s solicitor, Mr. Bermingham (David Bradley), arrives with
