Wrong Turn (2003)
Directed by Rob Schmidt
Quick Hit
Wrong Turn hits like a backwoods bloodbath—mean, efficient, and leaves a bad taste on purpose.
Full Take
Wrong Turn leans hard into backwoods horror energy, and Rob Schmidt keeps the tone mean without letting the movie drift. The best parts are the confidence and control: it takes its time, sets the trap, then slams the door. Not flawless, but the swing is worth it.

This didn’t really land for me overall, but I can see why some people like it.
wtf 😳
Not perfect but had some solid moments.
I actually agree with this take. It’s not perfect but it definitely delivers in key moments.

There’s a lot to like here, but also a lot that holds it back from being great.

I liked pieces of Wrong Turn, but the pacing definitely wobbles in spots.
Kinda mixed but I get the appeal.
