The trailer for Wrong Turn 9 (2025) opens with a chilling aerial shot of an isolated mountain range in the Appalachian wilderness. The camera zooms in on a desolate, narrow road winding through the dense forest, and a rusty, bullet-ridden sign reads: “Stay Out.” Immediately, tension builds as we hear distressed voices on a radio transmission: “We lost contact…they’re all gone.”
Cut to a group of five friends, on a road trip adventure, laughing and carefree. They’re headed to an off-the-grid destination, but an unexpected roadblock forces them onto a remote path—one that’s been forgotten by civilization. The tone shifts dramatically as night falls, and strange noises echo from the forest surrounding them. Their car suddenly breaks down, and the realization that they’re stranded in the middle of nowhere dawns on them.
In quick, terrifying flashes, the group stumbles upon abandoned houses, twisted traps, and mutilated remains in the woods. The camera cuts to the cannibalistic mutant family, lurking in the shadows, watching their every move. As they descend deeper into the wilderness, the iconic antagonists are revealed—inhumanly grotesque and more vicious than ever. One of the mutants, larger and more horrifying than any before, slams an axe into the ground, signaling the hunt has begun.
Scenes of chaos ensue: the group desperately runs through the forest, navigating through deadly traps and pitfall spikes. One by one, they fall victim to brutal attacks—heads crushed, limbs severed. The remaining survivors fight back, setting up defenses and makeshift weapons to stand a chance against the relentless killers.
In a brief pause in the carnage, the group discovers an old journal hinting at a hidden colony of cannibals deep in the mountains, surviving through generations by kidnapping and consuming lost travelers. “They’ve been doing this for centuries,” one survivor whispers, eyes wide with horror.
The trailer crescendos into a violent final showdown, as the survivors face the mutants in a blood-soaked battle for survival. The last shot teases a devastating twist: an escape route turns into a trap, leaving their fate uncertain. The screen cuts to black, with the title “Wrong Turn 9: The Final Hunt” flashing in blood-red letters.
This trailer promises to be the darkest, bloodiest installment yet, returning to the franchise’s brutal roots.
