It's usually because their distribution rights are confined to particular territories rather than being world-wide.

For new films, it might also be for the same reason as for DVD's, i.e. to reflect the staggered theatrical release schedule across the world. But for back-catalog titles, distribution rights should be the only consideration.

I do not believe that Fox controls worldwide distribution rights for Wrong Turn, which might force them to region code it if the distribution contracts have certain clauses.
