The new parts it adds are just as ineffective as the secondhand ones it blatantly copies from the original. 2006's "The Hills Have Eyes" is a tasteless, big-budget imitation. A gratuitous 15 million dollar can of Easy Cheese.

Offensive and not very good. The film starts out slow and really offers few thrills. The mutant society is interesting and the final revenge scenes almost redeem some of the movie. I have met people who were absolutely appalled by this film, which means it must have struck a nerve and at least done that small thing right.

The story is about a family to California for vacation take a shortcut through the dessert and fall prey to cannibals physically altered by nuclear testing. This remake was ugly and dark but the movie is better then the original film in my opinion.

One of the few re-makes I actually prefer over the original. This one just got everything right It's dirty, disgustingly torturous feel isn't a turn off for once in recent cinema. The ending is satisfying and makes it worth the grueling experience.

As an avid horror fan I am a big Wes Craven nut, so needless to say I was very excited about this film. And lets just say I was not disappointed. The acting is really well done the music is cool and has a retro feel to it and the action is very intense and graphic if you are not a horror fan DO NOT watch this. The violence is extreme and some of it even upset me and if you have seen my profile you I have seen quite a few horror films. Well I guess thats all Ill say about this one.

Badly-edited remake with the expected amount of unsettling moments; its sympathetic viewpoints and cultural statements fail and we can only tolerate so many axe blows to the head. Just another remake with the possibility of endless money-grubbing sequels. Final Grade: C-

Having not seen the original, I can't complain about how much this one ruined the spirit of it. In the new tradition of "torture porn" The Hills Have Eyes does its best with gruesome deaths and mutated characters, but it's kind of blah.

Great horror flick. Some great bloody scenes and a few disturbing ones. I can watch this movie over and over and by having HBO it's pretty easy to do.
