WRONG TURN 4: BLOODY BEGINNINGS is the latest sequel in a franchise that nobody asked for. As the title would suggest, this is a prequel of sorts, although it's not really. The first five minutes is set in the 1970s but then the rest of the film skips to the early 2000s so the prequel aspect becomes a bit pointless. The only change here is that the setting is a derelict hospital rather than the woods.
In any case, this is the worst WRONG TURN yet. Everything about the film is horrible: the bad acting from the inexperienced cast members, the rubbish dialogue that spouts from their lips, and the ridiculously stupid decisions that these characters make. This time around they have three mutant brothers to contend with, but the film fails to be the least bit menacing.
Instead the producers up the gore quotient, along with some explicit sex scenes that make this resemble a porno at times. Unfortunately WRONG TURN 4 veers into the torture porn category with one extended set-piece involving a victim being strapped down while parts of his body are eaten, and this is unpleasant indeed. It makes the other extreme death scenes feel like a relief. As a whole, this is a real comedown from WRONG TURN 3, which was at least fun and action-packed and nowhere near as mean spirited.
