An unnamed man and woman are out riding their bikes when they decide to take a dip in the hot springs. This leads to some near full frontal nudity and a quick sex scene. Hopping back on their bikes, they head off again until the man calls off his bike and screams that someone shot him with an arrow. Out comes three resident hillbillies to take care of them both.
Danny and his girlfriend Toni take a trip to the middle of nowhere along with some of their closest friends. After working on Wall Street for far too long, Danny snapped and tried to kill himself. Not long after his suicide attempt, he received word that he inherited a large old hotel from his family, and he convinces his friends to go with him to check things out until he can decide what to do with it.
Sally and Jackson are the caretakers of the old hotel, and after making out for a bit, we learn that they are also brother and sister. They welcome Danny with open arms after making it clear that they didn't expect him to bring any friends. After showing him the hotel, the group decides to look around themselves, which leads to them finding a hidden chamber designed for people to watch others have sex. It doesn't take long before our favorite group of hillbillies come back to get rid of the friends and bring home their long lost brother/nephew/cousin/uncle/whatever.
I have mixed feelings about the Wrong Turn franchise. I loved the first one, which became one of my "can't flip through the channels, see it on, and keep going" movies. Thanks to Henry Rollins and that opening scene, the second one became one of my favorites as well. Bought the third one and was so disappointed that I assumed they would never make another one. I can't remember the fourth one, but I liked the fifth one. I almost figured this one would turn out to be pretty awful too. Guess what? It really isn't that bad for the sixth film in a franchise that most people thought would never make it past a first film.
One
complaint I had is that the film doesn't explain how it connects back
to the others. We suddenly have this amazing hotel in the middle of
nowhere that actually sees guests coming and going despite the
rednecks running loose through the woods. Are they related to those
from the other films, or is this an entirely new group? We also learn
that they have a huge shanty town in the middle of the woods that no
one else seems to know about. Also, Danny is part of the family, but
we never really get an explanation about how or why his family left.
As a
female who likes horror movies, I've seen my fair share of tits and
ass over the years, but Wrong Turn 6 takes it to a whole different
level. The first sex scene literally came before the credits rolled,
and it seemed like half the characters only cared about getting some,
which led to even more scenes. When a movie has to rely more on sex
and less on scares or gore, you know there's a problem.
While
there aren't many scares, there are some gory scenes. One kill
involves a woman's head going through a piece of razor/barbed wire,
and another has two hillbillies literally ripping a woman's legs off
while she's on a sex table. Oh, and did I mention the woman who has
an orgasm while suffocating a man and the scene that shows a woman
getting her face shoved in boiling hot water? If any of that appeals
to you, you'll want to watch Wrong Turn 6.
