How many wrong turn films are there

Wrong Turn 2: Dead End made its debut in , and thanks to a positive response it kick-started a long-running collection of Wrong Turn direct-to-DVD movies. In this post, I am taking a look at the Wrong Turn movie series to provide details about the films.

So, if you have only ever watched the first entry, now is the time to play catch up. To date, there are seven entries in the Wrong Turn movie series. The Wrong Turn movies are as follows:. The events of the first three films — Wrong Turn , Wrong Turn 2 , and Wrong Turn 3 — are told in chronological order, while Wrong Turn 4 and 5 are prequels.

Wrong Turn 6 is a loose sequel, while the seventh movie in the collection, Wrong Turn , is also a sequel, but acts as a reboot of the franchise.

Wrong Turn 3 is heavy on the dude energy, but we do get a topless woman within the first three minutes who dies after an arrow pierces her chest; then near the end of the movie, we see her still topless!

This release—which screened in theaters for one night, more than most of the films on this list can claim—boasts much higher production values than any other Wrong Turn film, and even gives us a star name: Matthew Modine , of Stranger Things fame!

Sounds about right. The first film in the Wrong Turn series can hardly be called original—it wholeheartedly rips off previous back-road nightmares like The Hills Have Eyes and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre , and even drops a Deliverance reference into its dialogue for the people in the back.
