Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings is an American independent feature film of the slasher subgenre. It was written and directed by Declan O'Brien and produced by Constantin Film Produktion, Summit Entertainment and StrangeLand Oddities. It was released direct-to-video through Twentieth Century Fox on October 25th, 2011. This film changes up the formula slightly by including a partial origin of the three fun-loving inbred mutant killers known as Three-Finger, One-Eye and Saw-Tooth, while also trading in the woodsy mountains of West Virginia for the snow-covered frigid cold of an abandoned sanatorium.
