Wrong Turn 2: Dead End

Um leve assassino de filmes B que se baseia na premissa do primeiro filme, mas, ao contrário dele, não apresenta as suas próprias ideias, mas em vez disso confortavelmente (e sem disfarces) abusa o tema de Battle Royale japonês e os elementos popularizados do Predador (Henry Rollins como um marinheiro pintado de mau gosto) e o original Massacre no Texas (uma rapariga atada a uma mesa num jantar de celebração). Os atores foram também mais interessantemente selecionados e mais esforçados no primeiro filme. Estes são mais brandos e mais facilmente esquecidos. (07/01/2010)

It's your usual slaughter season in the Virginia agricultural cooperative that builds on somewhat stale genre mechanics and clichés, and puts under the knife a bunch of cocky youngsters with IQs only slightly higher than their mutant antagonists, but no one can deny that (at least in my eyes) it has a brutal pace, properly gory murders, amusing winks towards popular movie tropes (Rambo, Predator, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre) and one great character who decides to tackle evil in a truly exquisite way. An entertaining romp that may lack logic and real tension in the face of such vile, violent creatures, but otherwise everything about it, at least by the standards of a straightforward teen slasher, works pretty much to perfection.

When you compare it to what followed in the series, this episode is actually quite tolerable. Especially because there is really quite good gore here and every now and then you come across a pretty good joke. But as I said, only every now and then. It's that kind of horror where it's all about the effect and nothing else, the atmosphere logically lacks here. (12/10/2014)
