“Wrong Turn” (* out of four) was an abysmal remake of the 2003 cult classic about hikers (Emma Dumont, Charlotte Vega, and others) in backwoods Appalachia who are confronted by “The Foundation”- a group of mutant hillbillies who have lived in the mountains and have killed others for hundreds of years; elsewhere one of the girls’ relatives (Matthew Modine) starts snooping around for answers as to her disappearance. With all the superior craft and tension of the original removed- what’s left is a generic and dull rednecks-in-the-woods story which doesn’t even measure up to any of the original “Wrong Turn” sequels! Incredibly, Alan McElroy who wrote the original wrote this one too but along the way his writing talent appears to have taken a wrong turn of its own.
