Well, here we go again with another installment of Cannibal Hillbillies Gone Bad. It's a sequel, no a prequel, no... oh who fucking cares at this point. It's just another attempt to cash in on a franchise that outlived it's glory days. So, now that the "Hunger Brothers" have eaten their way through Jeremy Sisto, Kimberly Caldwell and Henry Rollins, it's only natural that they bring in Doug Bradley to try and clean up the mess. As horrid as this franchise has become I still can't seem to stop watching it. Which in turn only makes it worse because as long as people watch, Hollywood will continue making them. What's that old saying, if you're not part of the solution, you're part of them problem? Yep, that's me... helping to make it worse for everybody else!! Hey, if I have to suffer, it's only fair that everyone else does too!
The cutting-edge terror *eye roll* continues when a small mining town hosts the
legendary Mountain Man Festival on Halloween, where crowds of costumed
partygoers gather for a wild night of music and mischief. But a killer
celebration soon gives way to a blood-soaked feeding frenzy when an
inbred family of hillbilly cannibals trick and treat themselves to a
group of visiting college students who are just dying for a good time...
If you thought the acting in Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead was bad, this is ten times worse. You'd think a film with a budget of $12.6 million would entail a more widespread search for actors who can, oh I dunno... ACT! I just finished watching this film and I can't for the life of me remember one single characters name (other than the hillbilly's and Bradley) because I didn't give a shit about any of them. There is no central character(s) in this film. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to be rooting for the victims or the cannibals. You're introduced to a whole bunch of them rather quickly... Camilla Arfweds, Simon Ginty, Roxanne McKee, Paul Luebke, Oliver Hoare, Amy Lennox but not one of them was written with any substance which could be the reason they all came off so inexperienced. Either way, the acting stunk.
I'm so confused on the timeline of this franchise... There's the original Wrong Turn that introduced us to Three Finger, Saw Tooth and One Eye. Then there's Wrong Turn 2: Dead End which only has Three Finger because the others were toasted in the first one but does manage to introduce us to Ma, Pa, brother and sister (no, I'm not kidding). Then there's 3 where we're fortunate enough to meet Three Toes (still not kidding). Oh but wait, we might actually be saved by Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings, a prequel to the original that I actually found very entertaining. Too bad writer/director Declan O'Brien couldn't muster enough imagination to keep that momentum going with this one. I can't tell you where this one fits in because I have no idea. We have the same bad guys from the first one but not the second one so I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say it fits somewhere in between 1 and 2. Confused yet?
The dialogue in this one is so bad sometimes, I facepalmed more than once. With lines like "We're under siege by three crazed hillbillies" and "my eyes, my eyes" how can you go wrong?? I'm facepalming just typing that. Another thing... the film pretty much centers around this HUGE 10th Annual Mountain Man Festival that it NEVER shows. It's mentioned a couple dozen times but...... I was really expecting some kind of Freddy vs. Jason rave massacre where the brothers do a slash and dash on everybody. But alas, nothing. Why was the festival even mentioned if it wasn't going to be explored? I'm assuming it was thrown in to explain why these college students were out in the middle of nowhere but honestly, there are so many other things they could've focused on instead. My advice would be to skip this one and revisit the original, 2 and 4. That's where you'll find the most cannibalistic satisfaction.
Following on from the success of Jack Falls since its release just over three weeks ago, it is now in official selection for Best Film at the London Independent Film Festival.
Jack Falls: Sid's Story is also screening as part of the shorts block of the festival on Friday 15th April, beginning at 18:00 at the Shortwave Cinema, SE1.
Our Director/Writer Paul Tanter says: "We are extremely proud to be in contention at this years LIFF. Independent film making in the UK is a huge challenge, and the quality of films this year is a testament to the strength of the industry and skills of those working in it. To have our feature, Jack Falls, and our animated short, Jack Falls: Sid's story, both in competition in their respective catagories, is very exciting, and we look forward to seeing them and all the other entries up on the big screen."
