Wrong Turn 2: Dead End (2007)

A reality tv show ventures into the hillbilly infested hills to film a Survivor type show. When one of the contestants doesn't show up - having already been dispatched by the inbred hicks during an amazing opening sequence - the producer is called upon to take her place on the show. Henry Rollins is the fatigue clad host of the show and turns out to be one of the more likable characters.

As usual when you put people in the middle of the woods fifty miles from civilization, they turn into complete idiots when faced with hillbilly killers chasing them. The group traipses into a cabin in the middle of nowhere, no phone lines going to it, in an attempt to make a call, never once guessing that it might be inhabited by the very people chasing them.

Also it is never a good idea to hide in the old abandoned mill in hillbilly country, or to run through the woods so as not to be seen on the road. You idiots, these people know the woods like the back of their hands, and the woods are full of bear traps and death of all shapes and sizes. But let's stick to the woods while we try to escape hillbilly death. Basically it's the same movie as Wrong Turn.
