Very Violent and Gore

Rating: 7/10 (13 February 2007)

While traveling in a trailer to California through the New Mexico Desert, a family is misled to a shortcut going to nowhere by the owner of an isolated gas station and wrecks the car in a rock. Along the night and on the next day, they are attacked by a group of deformed cannibals, fruit of the atmospheric nuclear tests conducted by USA from 1945 to 1962 in that spot. Absolutely trapped by the psychotic mutants, they have to fight to survive.
"The Hills Have Eyes" is one of the most visually violent and gore movies that I have recently seen. I have never had the chance to see the original 1977 Wes Craven's version, but this disturbing and sick remake certainly is not recommended for sensitive persons. Is spite of the having a storyline very similar to "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre", "Wrong Turn", "Wolf Creek" and even "House of Wax", i.e., a group of innocent people is under siege of psychopaths, most of them dies and in the end few of them survives, I liked this film. My vote is seven.
Title (Brazil): "Viagem Maldita" ("Damned Trip")
