Wrong Turn is an American slasher film series created by director Rob Schmidt[1] and writers Alan B. McElroy, Adam Cooper and Bill Collage (uncredited).

The films originally focus on various families of deformed cannibals who hunt and kill a group of people in West Virginia in horrific ways by using a mixture of traps and weaponry.

The reboot film features a centuries-old cult in Virginia who respond violently to outsiders who intrude on their self-sufficient civilization.

The film series became known primarily as a direct-to-video franchise grossing $21.8 million in home video sales.

He makes a wrong turn and crashes into another vehicle which had already fallen victim to one of the mountain men's road traps.

An unknown cannibal comes up behind Brandon and bludgeons him with a crude club killing him and leaving Alex the only survivor in the film.

The story focuses on a group of nine teenagers who take a wrong turn while riding their snowmobiles and are looking for their cabin.

Throughout the course of the film, the brothers attempt to break Maynard out of jail and kill off the college students and Sheriff Angela Carter (Camilla Arfwedson), while the rest of the town is at the festival.

The film ends with Maynard and the three brothers escaping with the blinded young college student Lita (Roxanne McKee) as a captive.

In the sixth installment, Danny (Anthony Ilott) discovers his long lost family as he takes his friends to Hobb Springs, a Forgotten resort deep into the West Virginia Hills.

He is a cannibal with great physical deformity caused by toxic chemicals he was exposed to at birth, alongside his two brothers.

Wrong Turn 2: Dead End introduces a family of four cannibals called Ma, Pa, Brother and Sister.

The two young siblings are shown to have an incestuous relationship; Sister even gets extremely jealous and angry when she catches Brother masturbating while spying on a human girl.

The Wrong Turn (2021) reboot introduces the Foundation, a self-sufficient civilization who have lived on the Appalachian Trail since the 19th century.
