Boring

Rating: 3/10 (6 August 2006)

Somewhere in the desert land of the Southern part of North America a family makes a trip through the desert, riding from the one end of the country to the other. Somewhere in the middle of the wasteland they get stranded, and find out there is a truth about bad things happening to people that lived in the desert at the times of the big nuclear tests that were done there.
The Hills Have Eyes is a remake of the film with the same title from 1977. I must admit I have never seen that one and after seeing this one I might be willing to see that one - usually the originals are a good deal better and this one was okay, almost at least.
The story line is a normal one - very comparable to a lot of films that deal with the same ideas (people getting stranded in the wrong place and then getting slaughtered), but the work out isn't as good as the most of them. The film doesn't keep a decent pace up and the actual gore is just not good enough to survive the comparison with that dozen of movies in the same stretch.
