너무 무서운 미국영화 "Wrong Turn"

"Wrong Turn"



스크린 내용과 내 생각

영화 전체를 다 보여줄 수 없어서 안타깝기는 하지만 미국에서 무서운 영화라고 하는 것들은 거의 이런 종류의 영화이다.
약간은 과장적이기도 하면서 실제를 방불케하는 현장감있는 영화!

등산을 가서 절벽을 오르던 남녀, 위에서 밧줄을 타던 남자가 총 혹은 활에 맞고 떨어진다. 그 밧줄이 풀리게 되자 아래서 올라가던 여자가 위험에 빠진다. 순간, 밧줄을 끊고 바닥에 떨어지게 된다.
의과대학생인 크리스(남자 주인공)는 잡인터뷰를 가던 중이었는데 도로에 기름이 쏟아진 것을 발견하고 그곳을 돌아 다른 길로 가게된다. 폐쇄된 오래된 주유소 앞을 지나가게 되었는데 거기 있던 노인은 도움을 주지 않는다. 자신이 가려고 하는 도시로 가는 또다른 길을 안내하는 맵을 발견한다. 그길을 띠라 가고 있었는데 길 한복판에 세워져 있던 차와 충돌사고가 나고만다. 몇 커플의 젊은이들이 캠핑을 가던 중이었다. 더이상 차를 타고 갈수 없게 되자 다 내려서 한적한~ 조금은 으시시한~ 산속을 걷게된다.

이들이 걸어서 도착한 빈집에는 이상한 물건들이 진열되어 있었다. 사람(인간)의 각 부위들이 분류되어 여러개의 유리병 안에  들어 있었다. 그곳은 식인종(食人種)들의 집이었던 것이다. 순간 네명의 남녀는 차가 집 가까이 오는 소리를 듣고 침대 밑으로 들어가 숨는다. 괴물인간들은 여자를 사냥해서 짊어지고 들어와서 도마에 올려 놓고 잘라서 먹는다. 침대 밑에서 이것을 몰래 숨어서 보고있던 그들은 경악하지만 소리를 지를 수 없다. 지르면 안된다. 숨막히는 순간이다. 결국 그 괴물인간들은 이 남녀를 잡으러 쫒아 다닌다.
말도 안되는 이야기 같지만 말이 되는 이런 류의 미국영화에서는 무엇인가를 말하고 있다.
제한구역안에 사는 이 괴물인간들에게는 사람(인간)을 잡아먹는 것은 전혀 이상한 일이 아니다. 그곳은 어느 누구도 들어갈 수 없는 구역이고 전에도 그랬고 지금도 그렇게 살아가고 있기 때문이다. 동물이 동물을 잡아먹는 것은 어찌보면 동물의 왕국에서 생존을 위해 있는 일이기 때문이다. 그런데~ 만약에 그 괴물인간 중에 한명이 우리 같은 인간들이 사는 세상에 가보니 인간들은 인간을 먹지 않고 다른 종류의 동물을 먹고 살아간다는 것을 알게 되면 어떻게 될까? 상상에 맡기겠다.
내 이야기가 조금 비약되는 감이 있긴 하지만 나는 이 영화를 보면서 그런 생각을 하고 있었다.



A couple, Halley Smith (Yvonne Gaudry) and Rich Stoker (Joel Harris) are rock climbing in the remote West Virginia forest. As Rich prepares to help Halley, he is suddenly murdered. Someone begins to pull Halley up the cliff so she cuts the rope and falls to the ground. Halley then attempts to escape to her car but trips over a piece of barb wire before being pulled back into the woods and killed.  Chris Flynn (Desmond Harrington), a medical student, is driving through the mountains of West Virginia on his way to a job interview. Due to a chemical spill in the road ahead, he is forced to take a different route. He stops at an old rundown gas station and meets an old man (Wayne Robson). The old man is not helpful, but Chris views a map detailing another possible route that heads straight towards the city to which he needs to go. Chris decides to take the road and as he is driving he crashes into a Range Rover stranded in the middle of the road. The car belongs to a group of friends on a hiking trip: Jessie Burlingame (Eliza Dushku), Carly (Emmanuelle Chriqui), her fiancé Scott (Jeremy Sisto), and a couple - Evan and Francine (Kevin Zegers and Lindy Booth). Their tires have been punctured by a piece of barbed wire in the woods.  Jessie, Carly, and Scott go to find help and Chris joins them. Evan and Francine stay to watch the cars, and as Evan starts to fix their car he hears a strange noise. He goes to the woods to investigate. After a while, Francine notices that he is missing, and she goes into the woods to look for him. As Francine ventures further into the woods, she finds his sneaker, and his severed ear. She stumbles back, horrifed, as a figure kills her with a strip of barbed wire.  As Chris, Jessie, Carly and Scott try to find help, they find an isolated cabin. They go inside and discover miscellaneous objects and human body parts. Horrified they attempt to escape, but they hear the occupants coming back and are forced to hide. Three cannibalistic mountain men, all of whom are extremely disfigured, enter the cabin and bring in Francine's dead body. Chris, Jessie, Carly and Scott silently watch in horror, as her body is brutally butchered and messily eaten.  As the cannibals fall asleep, Chris, Jessie, Scott and Carly silently escape. However one of the cannibals, "Saw-Tooth" wakes and alerts the other cannibals and begins to chase them through the forest. The group climbs up to a nearby clearing with many cars of the cannibals' victims. Chris makes a diversion and is shot in the leg. Scott saves him by distracting the cannibals, allowing Jessie and Carly to steal one of the trucks. Chris gets into the truck, and they drive down a path close by trying to find Scott. Carly sees him in the forest. Scott starts to make his way to the truck, but the cannibals shoot him with arrows as Chris, Jessie and Carly drive and escape fast. The cannibals pick up Scott's dead body and take it back to their cabin.  Chris, Jessie and Carly hit a dead end in the road and have to continue on foot. They find an old watchtower and begin to climb up and find a radio and use it to call for help, but do not get a response. Later they see the cannibals armed with torches, and reaching the foot of the watchtower. The radio starts responding to their call, alerting the cannibals. Carly tries to make an urgent response but is interrupted when "Three Finger" tries to climb into the watchtower. He tries to get through the panel on the floor of the tower but is stopped by Chris. The cannibals set the tower on fire. Chris, Carly and Jessie escape by jumping out of the window into a nearby tree. They begin to climb up, but Three-Finger starts to climb up a tree near them. Chris and Jessie begin to climb higher as Carly attempts to climb further. Chris and Jessie make it to another tree, but Three-Finger sneaks up behind Carly and decapitates her. Three Finger begins to pursue Jessie, but Chris manages to hit him with a tree branch and he falls out of the tree. They manage to escape and hide in a cave near a waterfall until the next morning. Just as they find a road out of the woods, the mountain men find them and push Chris down the hill and capture Jessie and take her back to their cabin. Chris survives the fall and meets a sheriff, but before he is able to convince the Sheriff of what is happening, the Sheriff is shot with an arrow. Chris attempts to drive away in the car, but can not find the key, so instead hitches a ride underneath the car as the cannibal drives it back to the cabin.  When the cannibals arrive at the cabin, Jessie is tied to a bed and gagged with a leash, crying for help. After Saw-Tooth goes inside with the sheriff's body, Chris gets down from the bottom of the police truck. As Jessie is about to be killed, Chris, who is driving the police truck, breaks through the cabin and runs into "One-Eye". Chris unties Jessie and they fight the cannibals. They escape quickly as Chris manages to kill the cannibals by blowing up their cabin with a shotgun. Chris and Jessie, driving the cannibals' truck, stop back at the gas station. Chris, badly injured, gets out of the truck and takes the map from the gas station so if the cannibals lived no one else would suffer the same fate. He then gets back into the truck, he and Jessie drive down the road, as the credits roll.  The credits are interrupted by a scene showing a deputy sheriff investigating and picking over the remains of the destroyed cabin. Three-Finger, who survived the explosion, comes up behind the deputy. Three-Finger kills him. His insane laughter is heard, as the credits continue to roll.
