"[During an interview for the 15 year anniversary of Wrong Turn] Eliza Dushku revealed how she ensured that her final girl, Jessie Burlingame, would get the final kill shot. “I fought for that moment,” Dushku says. “I remember calling my mom from the set saying, ‘I don’t want to be a diva, but this is really important to me: it feels in my gut like I have to be the one to drill the axe into the dude’s skull at the end of the film!'”

According to Dushku, on the day that she went to shoot the movie’s bloody climax, the producers decided to make Chris the one who swings an axe and saves the day. But Dushku stood up for Jessie, who she lovingly calls a “badass.”

The star quite rightly pointed out to the producers that Chris had no prior connection to the mountain men’s victims, robbing his triumph of any resonance. “I was like, ‘Those weren’t even his friends! I have to have this kill shot.'”

Dushku’s impassioned argument won over the producing team, and Jessie got the moment she deserved. Dushku remembers receiving a congratulatory call from producers after a Wrong Turn test screening. “They said that moment tested the highest with the audience,” she says, pumping her arms in the air in triumph."

Anti logic: I watched a movie with cannibalism and incest. I might as well fk my sister and eat my neighbors now because fiction influences reality. 🤪

This is my Cannibal jacket. This idea is more than a year in the making and I'm fucking amazed at how it turned out.
