The trailer for Wrong Turn: Final Chapter (2025) wastes no time plunging viewers into the brutal, blood-soaked world of the franchise’s Appalachian horrors. Set to a chilling remix of a folk song, the preview opens with an aerial shot of a desolate forest, signaling the final showdown between the survivors of the original film series and the infamous cannibal clan.
The trailer introduces a new protagonist, Sarah (played by rising star Mia Cort), a forestry researcher whose team uncovers an unsettling secret buried beneath the woods. Her narration reveals a haunting connection to the earlier films, as Sarah is revealed to be the niece of Chris Flynn, the protagonist from the 2003 Wrong Turn. “My uncle warned me about this place,” she says, her voice trembling over glimpses of rusted traps and decayed bodies.
The stakes escalate with the return of iconic characters like Three Finger, who is now more feral than ever. A montage shows the survivors from earlier films banding together, including an older, battle-worn Alex (Emmanuelle Chriqui reprising her role from Wrong Turn 2). Alex reveals that the cannibal clan has grown, evolving into a twisted society of hunters that spans deeper into the wilderness than ever imagined.
The trailer shifts gears with a relentless onslaught of violent sequences: Sarah’s team is ambushed, their camp torn apart by razor-sharp traps and brutal hand-to-hand combat. One standout moment is a close-up of a trap activating in slow motion, snapping shut on a screaming victim’s leg, highlighting the series’ signature gore.
In a shocking twist, it’s revealed that not all of the villains are inbred cannibals. A mysterious cult-like group emerges, worshiping the cannibals as “guardians of the sacred forest.” This development promises a deeper, more sinister mythology for the franchise.
The final scenes are pure chaos: flaming arrows rain down on the survivors, characters are dragged screaming into the darkness, and Sarah confronts Three Finger in a visceral hand-to-hand fight. The trailer ends with a haunting tease—a whispering voice says, “The forest takes care of its own,” as the screen cuts to black.
With its relentless tension, callbacks to the original, and a promise to tie up loose ends, Wrong Turn: Final Chapter sets the stage for an explosive finale. Fans of the franchise will undoubtedly be thrilled (and terrified) by what lies ahead.
