Classic horror film - dire.
And by classic, I meant it follows the same plot that they all do these days: Two people introduce the flick and get killed by something you can't see. There's a weird man at a petrol station (or a location very similar) who seems to know the plot. The main guy is unnaturally brave and has a gravelly voice. The main woman is always a busty brunette who falls for the forementioned guy. As soon as you meet the principle charcters, you know who will die and in what order. And it will be riddled with cliches. "Wrong Turn" has all of these.
For those who've never seen it; a guy makes a wrong turn crashes into a bunch of strangers who he immediately clicks with, they get hunted by inbred hillbillies, the guy and busty survive in the end and seem to get together. Bless. Keep watching the end credits to see the little clip that comes on mid-way through - and what do you know, the bad guy survived but is horrifically(sp?) burnt.
*Sigh*

Perhaps... but it was totally cliche.

I think you're taking the film a bit too seriously.

I'm glad it was only eighty minutes long. It's not a good sign, during a movie, if you keep looking at the clock...
It was more 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre' than 'Jeepers Creepers'.
Wasn't expecting the level of gore. It was a bit too simple but for the running time it was ok.

"Horrifically".
Had they done a stylish hillbillie thriller like "Deliverance" I would've been more impressed. And the arrow in the cop's eye, yeah right.
The baddie lived?
Didn't know that.
:-O

I liked it.
Predictable deaths and cliches aside, I thought it was much better than most horror films these days.
Even though it did steal most of its ideas from 'The Hills Have Eyes'.
