Hearing al the negativity about this entry I was a bit afraid to start this straight to DVD horror. I liked part 4 and had a big laugh with it especially with the end. The only thing I saw was that director Declan O'Brien was back behind the wheel.
Starts off rather with a big joke and some nudity, so far so good. We move further to a jogger running in the woods and do come across some weird faces, she thinks they are masks again but no, it's the hillbillies from wrong turn, off goes one finger in comes Doug Bradley. he cuts off her hand and so we see move to another joke, please give me a hand. You will see what I'm talking about. The opening credits starts and guess what, the hand being cut off is used to say Wrong Turn 5. By seeing that you immediately know that you are in a Wrong Turn flick with an easy script and lots of gore and this time a lot of tits being shown.
The whole Wrong Turn franchise has indeed turned away from a serious horror flick towards and extreme gory flick with some jokes added. I was more into part 4 but still I enjoyed it. The acting wasn't always convincing but Camilla Arfwedson (Sheriff Angela) did a fine job and Doug Bradley (Maynard) was fine too even as he is falling into one sentences like in Hellraiser (1987). He does remind you of pinhead sometimes but it do adds something toward his person here.
If you didn't like the franchise then this entry wont help you loving it from now on. It's gory, stupid sometimes and only made for the nasty killings, some believable, some exaggerated some stupid. But by now you know what you will get from Wrong Turn. I liked it even as the end was rather simple, and yes, the town was rather deserted for having a big festival. Sometimes the streets are full of people and sometimes it looked like a ghost town.
