Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead started off white hot with grisly murders and a dash of boobs. Then the story gets set up: some high profile convicts are getting transferred to a different prison on an alternate route through West Virginia's murderous cannibal mutant country. The prison guards may have avoided the criminal elements by driving at night, but not ole Three Fingers. Fan favorite Three Fingers causes the prison bus to wreck and now we have 92 minutes of arguing, fighting and trying to escape between the convicts, a couple prison guards and a random girl they run across. Then the group finds an old armored bank truck and have to drag a bunch of money bags along and argue about it nonstop. People get killed, sliced up, lanced through the throat (or back) or what have you, like your typical gore filled mutant cannibal movie, but the nazi and the cartel guy simply cannot get along. More people die.
Finally the money is set on fire and the cartel guy takes on Three Fingers one on one, only to have his brain eaten raw. Then it's up to the prison guard to save the girl. How many times can you kill a mutant cannibal before he dies? A lot, apparently. Like most of the other Wrong Turn films, the concept looks great on paper. Too much arguing and not enough mutant murder action, but on par with the other films. 6 meat hooks through the face out of 10.
