How Wrong Turn 7 Can Connect To The 2003 Movie | Screen Rant – Screen Rant

Wrong Turn 7 can use The Foundation to establish a connection to the original movie in the cannibal horror franchise, 2003's Wrong Turn here's how.

Based on the trailer forWrong Turn 7, it's possible that the new installment can connect to the 2003 movie,Wrong Turn, in a way that allows the new installment to establish its own canon while respecting its roots here's how.

Wrong Turnwas the franchise's only theatrical release, though the franchise enjoyed five other movies that went direct to video. The first two movies are arguably the best, as the later installments tended to rely on low-budget sensibilities and saw diminishing returns through heavy reliance on blood, gore, and sexuality rather than a cohesive storyline.Wrong Turn 6: Last Resortdisconnected from much of the established canon and got some of the franchise's harshest reviews to date as a result. This made the news that original writer Alan B. McElroy would be returning to penWrong Turn 7after a seven year hiatus all the more exciting.

McElroy's return to pen a reboot makes perfect sense, given the franchise's history. However,Wrong Turn 7 doesn't seem to feature the original cannibals from the movies or their other family members at all. In the absence of Three Finger, One Eye, and Saw Tooth, it seems likeWrong Turn 7will be entirely disconnected from the previous six movies other than in its basic concept, which goes along with the standard reboot formula. That said, there's still a possibility for the cannibal family to be mentioned, thus connecting the new canon to the original franchise. SinceWrong Turn 7seems to focus on a group of individuals known as "The Foundation", the cannibal family familiar to the otherWrong Turnmovies can connect to this group through mere mention, offering fans the best of both worlds.

Based on the trailer, "The Foundation" are a group of people who have nestled into the Appalachian wilderness and established a society of their own. Given the presence of intricate traps, such as a massive log that's triggered to release via some sort of trip wire, it's clear the members of "The Foundation" mean business. They've likely survived under the radar for generations, which is also implied not only by the trailer forWrong Turn 7,but the original movies. The gas station attendantwho is later revealed to be the father of the three original cannibalsredirects travelers down a road that will inevitably lead to their demise.Wrong Turn 7posits that some people do know about "The Foundation", but also know to avoid them at all costs, which allows them to continue their lifestyle without outside interference.
