How would you rank these 'gems' and odes to the classic Texas Chainsaw Massacre (i.e. you stumbled into the wrong part of town) 1) Wolf Creek 2) Wrong Turn 3) THHE Go!   |

If it's the original The Hills Have Eyes that's easily the best, and Wrong Turn is easily the worst.

Yeah, it's mediocre fun, but that's the best I could say for it. It's dumb and nasty, and it's not entirely boring. It's better than most of its kind from its era though.
But that still makes it much weaker than the other two titles.

But that still makes it much weaker than the other two titles. tense, action packed, has you on the edge of your seat,eerie and comedic at the right times... great scenery - great acting. modern day classic ..... here's the key - characters you're rooting for and are invested in - key to a great movie in my eyes like 'Doug' in 'The Hills Have Eyes'. along the lines of Anaconda which gets hated on - gotta take these gems for what they are - a fun ride - we're not getting The Shining or Jaws here.... |

It's perfectly ok, but I don't find those characters particularly engaging or 3 dimensional. You're rooting for them because the actors are likable, but the characters are just horror trope people. And great acting? Perfectly adequate, but I'm not throwing around that superlative on a completely ordinary movie like this. I like the setting, some of the scenery is well shot. Action set pieces are fine. The character makeup is pretty cool. It's all ok. It's average. I don't see it as any sort of classic at all. I know the series has its fans, but I don't think many would call any of them classics. 'Fun ride' is an ok term, but without bringing anything new these kinds of movies can be a little dull, which cuts into the fun for me. Anaconda kinda sucks, but it's so absurd and aggressively stupid that I can see how some would characterize it as a camp classic. |

I never saw Wolf Creek and I am not a fan of torture porn. Wrong Turn is stupid, but it’s amusing and it doesn’t cross that line into torture porn. There’s nothing entertaining about watching simulated rape for an hour and a half.
