Utterly Disgusting

Rating: 1/10 (18 March 2006)

First of all, realize that this comment is coming from a lover of horror movies. The grosser the better. But when I saw The Hills Have Eyes I not only cried, but had to leave briefly to throw up. The violence and gore wasn't the problem. I knew all about that going in and I expected it. I'm talking about all the other sick, twisted stuff thrown into the mix. That's the kind of s*** that's ruining our world. We have a father being burned to death in front of his family, a teenage girl being brutally raped for something like twenty minutes, a young mother being fondled and apparently having her breast milk sucked (wtf???) by a cannibal holding a GUN on her baby, an innocent pet bird having its head bitten off, and so much more. None of that was necessary. The person who wrote it is sick. The director, the producers, the actors who agreed to it, the critics who hailed it, all of these people are sick! They should be institutionalized, not making millions of dollars off this trash. I'm completely appalled.
