Gives a whole new meaning to Colonic Hydrotherapy......

Warning: Spoilers
A sudden inheritance brings Danny and his friends to Hobb Springs, a forgotten resort deep in the West Virginia hills.

The resort, and the it's guests, are being looked after by Jackson and Sally, a socially inept couple who introduce Danny to the long lost family he's never known.

Soon, Danny is forced to choose between his friends and his new found bloodline.....

It's the franchise that just keeps on going, like a rusty old car, and even though the series has been very good on occasion, parts three and four were nearly franchise killers.

Here it's pretty much the same as you'd expect from a straight to DVD horror sequel. We meet our gang of misfits, and instantly begin to guess which ones will get killed first.

When you see that one of the characters is played by someone who was in Emmerdale, it does perk you up a little, because, hey, we never have a slasher in Emmerdale do we? When we get to the hotel, it's pretty much what you would expect, bizarre owners, jump scares, and then finally secret chambers.

For a straight out horror film, on this occasion, there is way too much nudity. Now as a red blooded male, a bit here and there wouldn't usually bother me, but here, it feels way too forced, and the makers are just putting it in for the sake of it.

It's gory for sure, the opening scene is pretty tense and unnerving, but then the kills go from splatter, to down right sick, and one in particular really got to me. I'm giving anything away, but it gets dragged out far too long.

All in all, it's a solid-ish entry into the franchise, but when you go back and watch the original, you realise that the makers have lost there way a little.

But never fear, I'm sure Wrong Turn 7: Going Round in Circles will be out soon
