Horror History: The Original WRONG TURN Is Now 18 Years Old The WRONG TURN franchise was launched on this day when the first installment arrived in theaters on this day in 2003! If Rob Schmidt’s Wrong Turn was a person, today he’d be old enough to vote! The film that launched a franchise and spawned five sequels and a reboot (which, at the time of this post, is still one of the best I’ve seen in 2021).

Despite—or perhaps because of—this simplicity, one subtextual element stands out: Much like the Sawyers in Wrong Turn’s clan of inbred cannibal mutants (or is it inbred mutant cannibals?) can almost be seen as simple farm folk defending their land.
