2/4
"The grey area is whether it's Schmidt's fault or the zeitgeist's that the film doesn't resonate even ten seconds past the finish line"  Film Freak Central  Bill Chambers

B
"A cut above the recent lot of slasher films...it does not feel as if it has to cater to audiences who want every plot point spoon fed to them."  FromTheBalcony  Bill Clark

1.5/5
"...talent does not matter much, just as long as the women?who, of course, all look like supermodels?wear skimpy, transparent outfits throughout the movie."  NutzWorld  Blake French

3/4
"Takes itself and the horrific situation it puts its characters in seriously...A tense and frightful good time."  TheMovieBoy.com  Dustin Putman

C-
"Like most slasher films, Wrong Turn is not especially scary, though it does achieve a few moments of mild suspense."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

C
"Moderately suspenseful, but...a good horror movie like this requires one of two things: interesting heroes or at least a conceptually interesting villain. Here we are given neither."  Film Blather  Eugene Novikov

F
"'Deliverance' us! In this case the wrong turn is into the theater parking lot."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

3/4
"[It] is better than the average entry in the subgenre because it eschews exposition in favor of thrills."  MovieMartyr.com  Jeremy Heilman

2.5/10
"If you're unfortunate enough to head down the path of seeing this film, that will be the only Wrong Turn you'll likely remember."  Screen It!  Jim Judy

6/10
"It entertained me for 'what it was.'"  JoBlo's Movie Emporium  JoBlo

4/10
"Wrong Turn is basically a well-made waste of time."  DVDTown.com  John J. Puccio

3.5/5
"Any film that has marketing copy reading 'cannibalistic mountain men grossly disfigured through generations of in-breeding' can't be all that bad, can it?"  Film Threat  Kevin Carr

C+
"The biggest problem with "Wrong Turn" is that it fails to build its own mythology"  Reeling Reviews  Laura Clifford

3/5
"Sheer, unadulterated nastiness with no apologies."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

1/2 star
"There are a lot of things wrong with this movie, and no things that are right. It's just about as bad a movie as I’ve seen in all the years I’ve been reviewing films."  Aisle Seat  Mike McGranaghan

D
"Headed in only one direction: straight into the toilet."  Lessons of Darkness  Nick Schager

3/5
"Ao contrário da maior parte das produções do gênero realizadas nos últimos anos, este filme acaba se revelando acima da média graças à boa direção de Rob Schmidt."  Cinema em Cena  Pablo Villaca

1/5
"It's the usual quick-cut, this-is-all-we-can-show-you R-rated mayhem."  eFilmCritic.com  Rob Gonsalves

3/5
"The flick grew on me after I initially disliked it ... and that's something not many horror films can do."  eFilmCritic.com  Scott Weinberg

1/10
"Bad directions are the least of its problems."  www.susangranger.com  Susan Granger
