The fatal problem is that this is not what "Fatal Turn" should be.

After 7 years from the sixth installment, this restart has also attracted the attention of fans from the very beginning. Entering the beginning of the 21st century, there are three truly long-lasting and successful American plasma films, "Reaper is Coming", "Saw Cry" and "Fatal Curve". The three plasmas are of high quality and quantity, and the themes are different from each other. "Fatal Bend" is a cannibal-themed plasma tablet known for plasma and cruelty. The first part has the least amount of blood plasma in the entire series, but the screenwriter is particularly powerful, and has designed many sections to stimulate the heartbeat. For example, the bridge section hidden in the home of the cannibals, the tree house bridge section, the big tree bridge section, etc., it is obvious that they have been conceived carefully, and they are also very fresh. At the same time, the plot rhythm of the first movie is also great. Although it is not like the plasma volume blessing of the next few movies, from the first distress to the escape to the final rescue and counter-kill, the whole movie gives the audience a great experience. Tension, excitement, fright, and relief, some of the achievements of "Fatal Turn" are beyond the next few movies. Therefore, the relaunched version of "Fatal Corner" in 2021 was clearly marked with the gimmick of "the first screenwriter writing" in the trailer, which made the majority of movie fans have high hopes for the quality of this new version from the very beginning. But it was also the beginning of the trailer that fans also had strong doubts about the new version, because there are no more cannibals in the movie, and there is no plasma in the trailer, and even the background music is very fresh...

Sure enough, the completion of the film is also disappointing. This is no longer "Fatal Bend", this is another movie under the title of "Fatal Bend". There is no cruelty, blood plasma, and cannibals in "Fatal Bend", just like "I Spit Your Grave" no longer tells a story of revenge by a qj female, but instead tells a virus-infected zombie movie, partial topic, hanging sheep's head Sell ​​dog meat. The soul of this series is blood plasma, cruelty, and adventure. His plot may not be important, but it cannot be without the above elements. If these elements are removed, then there is no need to make a sequel under the banner of "Fatal Turn". Fans of this series know what American horror movies must be exposed to for watching. The producer can continue to continue the plasma characteristics and cannibal theme of the previous work. The audience who watched the new version with feelings are all directed at these. Such a large-scale rectification, and as a new theme, it did not write or shoot highlights. I'm afraid it will directly ruin this series-even though the sixth part has already ruined this series.

However, as mentioned above, it is completely possible to rectify and open a new mode, but the premise is that you have to write a good story and make a good film. This new version is an example of failure at this point. The story is nothing new, and there are no bright spots in the film and television. I felt terrible after watching it, because there was not a single scene in the whole film that impressed me after watching it. The first part of the big tree bridge, the second part of the opening of the cleavage bridge, the third part of the opening of the three people killed bridge, the fourth part of the snowmobile killing bridge, the fifth part of the playground mower killing people Intersections...Some movies are good, some movies are bad, and some movies are not good enough, but at least the audience has one or two impressive sections in their minds after watching them, which are worth remembering and revisiting. It’s a pity that the new version of "Fatal Bend" is directly equivalent to bad. On the surface, it looks like a simple story, slow in pace and full of zhengzhi connotations, but as a horror movie, there is no bright plot, no thrilling scenes, There is no new murder method, no blood plasma, and no orgasm. What is this? It would be better to make a feature film with the name hanging. The first part has a step-by-step process from beginning to end, first encountering danger, escaping, and rescuing, interspersed with various killing tactics and tensions. The audience’s psychology of watching the movie has a transition. The new version of "Fatal Turn" did not give it. It's bad in every respect, as a horror film, and even more so as a sequel with the title of "Fatal Turn".

Finally, I also thought about why I didn't involve discussing the plot, and turned to thinking, it is true that this new version of the plot has almost no place worth discussing in my mind.

Evaluation summary: I did not fully look at this movie with the previous filter. My evaluation starts from two aspects. This new version is a complete failure as the sequel to "Fatal Corner". If it is separated from the original and evaluated by an independent new movie, it is still a very bad horror movie. I cannot agree to praise the script and the director's evaluation. This movie simply failed as a horror film. But I know that as long as the audience has watched the first 5 or 6 of "Fatal Turn", they will look at this new version with their feelings anyway, even at 1.25 times the speed. Just like if the new version of "Fatal Bend" has a sequel, I will still watch it, but the evaluation will still be written according to the standards that I have accumulated and formed over the years of my exposure to American horror movies.

Note: I have been in contact with American horror movies for the 14th year, and I hereby specifically declare that this comment comes from fans who specialize in American horror movies, not from outsiders who have only seen single-digit American horror and said that they are disgusting and perverted when they see the plasma. It's even less likely to be someone in the comment list who is supposed to be a blind commenter.

This note is specially made so that friends who read this review can feel the level of authority of my review of such American horror movies to readers.
