Tripe

Six predictably diverse young people with personalities as compelling as sugarless porridge get lost in the woods, behave irrationally, shout at each other, and thankfully get picked off one-by-one.

Who funds this rubbish? It's nothing like the original, which doesn't matter because the original isn't Citizen Kane, but this isn't a remake or an improvement and shouldn't have the title "Wrong Turn" because they don't make a wrong turn.

Having an ethnically-, sexually- and gender- diverse cast does not equal characters of value. The six protagonists don't have a single interesting personality trait between them, unless you count shouting at the drop of a hat.

The second half reminded me of feeble D-movie horrors from the 80s - boring and not really horrors.

I wouldn't be able to point out the main girl in a line-up of personality-bereft leading girls.

Matthew Modine appears as the one name you recognise in need of a paycheque. Daisy Head was alright. Otherwise, this was a bland and no-talent waste of life.
