Wrong Turn (2021)
They should have called it "Stay on the Path"
All in all it's not a terrible horror film, but don't watch it with the expectation that is has ANYTHING to do with the original Wrong Turn. Ah, no, hold on - woods, youngsters, death. That's all.
I found it was a cheap gimmick to get people to watch it calling it "Wrong Turn".
By removing the deformed inbred hillbillies side of it and replacing it with... well, no spoilers here - they took the heart out of the original film, you can't really call this a reboot.
That was my mistake, and it made me enjoy it less.
Bedlam (2011)
Doesn't live up to the expectations...
I was really looking forward to watching what Bedlam had to offer after the beautifully shot trailer. A dark, twisted drama set in an Asylum with ghosts all over the place - just my cup of tea!
Unfortunately, after watching the second episode I made up my mind (I gave it another chance after a poor first episode), and I am not watching it again... it's like watching Scooby Doo with less scares!
Terrible acting (I don't have anything against Will Young, but he should go back to singing...), inefficient jump scenes, technology driven ghosts, scary skid marks (seriously?), unnecessary bare chest men... the only bit that's mildly interesting is the two seconds flashbacks you get per episode showing you something that happened in the Asylum. That's it. Two seconds.
Needless to say, after watching the second episode (yes, I didn't even make it to the third one) - I am not watching this again. I'll probably watch the brilliant trailer over and over again now, which is surely that amazing because no one speaks! Disappointing.
