Wrong Turn 2: Dead End (2007)

 Wrong Turn 2: Dead End was a gruesome horror  film. From the right beginning of the movie there  was a lot of blood as one victim had her lips bitten  off by a deformed human and then she got sliced in  half with an axe by another deformed human  which was evident in the trailer. It automatically  establishes the genre of the movie by having that  in the first 10 minutes of the movie. It also  occurred in daylight which shows how ruthless the  villains are and they're prepared to kill no matter  who sees. Isolated settings were used as the film was shot in the woods in the middle of nowhere. Woods is a typical place for horror films to be shot as there are less people around which means the victims won't get the help needed when getting attacked by the villain.

The title of the film 'Wrong Turn 2: Dead End'  already shows that something bad is happening.  The dead end makes it seem as there's no way for survival among the victims. Several weapons were used in the making of this film such as knives and axes. Other weapons were used as well which established the sub genre of this horror movie as a slasher. Unlike typical horror films most of the movie was shot in the day time as the concept of the film was based on people being on a reality show. In the end there was two survivors: Jake and Nina. The final girl theory could be applied here for Nina because she was the only female to survive but a male survived as well so the theory may not apply. Stereo typically in horror movies, males are the killer and in this case that was how it was. All the deformed humans who were killing people were male.

The twist at the end of the movie showed how one of the deformed humans were still alive. When Jake and Nina left it was evident that they thought they had killed all of the villains but the one who survived (Three-Finger) was seen feeding the mutant baby that had been born earlier in the movie. Having Three-Finger and the baby at the end indicates a sequel to the movie and shows how the villains were not defeated in the end.
