How to Survive a Horror Movie

Now that horror fans have the backstory on the hillbilly cannibals’ “Bloody Beginnings”,
the franchise rejoins the infamous disfigured brothers as they return when WRONG TURN
5: BLOODLINES debuts on unrated Blu-ray, DVD and, for the first time ever, Digital Copy
on October 23. This all-new terrifying film boasts the talent of horror movie veteran Doug
Bradley (Hellraiser), along with Game of Thrones’ Roxanne McKee.

So, you’re lost in the woods, you can’t find your friends, and there’s a psychotic killer on the
loose? Boy, it sure sucks to be you! Too bad you didn’t have this handy how-to guide to tell
you the dos and don’ts of escaping a savage murderer. Follow these four simple tips, and
you just might make it to the end of the credits.

Do – Pick Up Stray Weapons

If you’re running through the woods and you happen upon a stray shovel, an axe stuck in
a tree, a hefty branch, or any other even mildly useful item, PICK IT UP. If you have to go
up against with a deformed villain, shouldn’t you be armed? It seems only fair that you put
yourself on even ground with your would-be assassin. On a related note, if you do happen

to knock out your assailant, continue attacking them! Isn’t it always the case that our heroes
think that their foe is kaput, and then they return for bloody, bloody vengeance? That’s why
you should keep attacking them until there is no possible way they’re still alive! And then
run. And keep your weapon, just in case.

Do – Use Common Sense

I know you’re frightened, and you should be. But don’t let common sense escape you! A
little coherent thought can go a long way when you’re running for your life. For instance,
if something looks like a trap, it probably is. If you have a cell phone, or a compass, or a
map, use it (quietly, in the case of a cell phone – or, better yet, send a text). If you know
that you’re finally somewhere safe, don’t go outside again to look for your friend who has
mysteriously disappeared. If your attacker is locked up or contained in some way, leave
them there and then run for your life – do not let them persuade you in any way! Basically,
try to keep your wits about you, and make good choices.

Don’t – Trust Strangers You Meet, Ever

Chances are this stranger that you think is your only hope for survival is likely not
wandering through the woods, the dark and/or deserted town, etc. just for the heck of it.
They’re probably also a savage killer, or in cahoots with the original murderous fiend that
was in hot pursuit of you, and they most likely will take you to their car, or cabin, and start
pulling out the “tools:” chainsaws, hedge trimmers, knives, saws, etc. And everything will be
rusty. So, mom’s old advice, “Don’t talk to strangers!” still holds true.

Don’t – Investigate Strange Noises

If you hear a strange noise while on the lam from a vicious killer, for the love of God, don’t
go investigate it! No good will come of this. Seriously. Along those same lines, never, ever
ask, “Who’s there?” I can guarantee you that you don’t want to know the answer to that
question.
