• WRONG TURN (2021)

  Mike and Devaughn are joined by returning guest Kat Hughes to talk about the way better than it has any right to be reimagining of Wrong Turn. Mike would also recommend you check out Mathew Modine's other masterpiece, Vision Quest, the only movie about high school wrestling you need to see.

• WRONG TURN 6: LAST RESORT

  Mike and Ari are happy to report that Wrong Turn 6 is one of the most unabashedly horniest movies we've ever covered on the show. Eschewing the traditional hot couples hooking up, this one has more of flair for kink, sadomasochism, and voyeurism. At least, it certainly does compared to most slasher movies, let alone the sixth entry in a long running, straight to video franchise. Is it a great movie? No, but it's a hell of a fun watch marked with some truly cheeky humor, a number of spectacular kill sequences and a standout performance from Sadie Katz as the villainous Sally, it just might be our favorite of the whole series

• WRONG TURN 5: BLOODLINES

  A movie so bad it made Mike question whether he actually liked horror movies. Luckily he's joined by Ariel, Devaughn, and special guest Kinell to talk this one through.

• WRONG TURN 4 BLOODY BEGINNINGS

  This week we go back to the beginning with Wrong Turn 4:Bloody Beginnings, Returning guest and queen of the B-movie and culinary horrorSarah Stubbs ((Final Girls Feast) is on Mike’s side championing the merits ofthis blizzard-set, asylum located slasher. Meanwhile Devaughn has recruited firsttime guest Sean Abley (creator and co-editor of Queer Horror: A Film Guide)  to talk about why returning director Declan O’Brienjust doesn’t have the juice to make this anything more than standard direct to-videofare. With a tongue planted firmly in cheek, some forward thinking queerrepresentation, practical effects, real snow, a pretty spooky on-set location,and a show stopping human fondue gory as hell kill, at the very least BloodyBeginnings marks a solid rebound over the dreadful (in Mike’s eyes) thirdentry.
