A breath of fresh air, I'm talking movie and theater experience together

Rating: 8/10 (11 March 2006)

OK, so far this year, I have had the worst experiences with Hollywood films and movie theaters. First off, movies, let's face it, Hollywood has lost a lot of touches and it's magic. The originality is just gone and I was thinking with "The Hills have Eyes" as just another lousy remake my friends were dragging me too, but wow! I must say that I was extremely impressed that the movie was entertaining and actually one of the best remakes of 2005-2006.
Theater experience, we have all admitted it, we hated going to the theaters last year. The parking and ticket prices were outrageous, not to mention pretty lousy movies didn't help either. But mainly I heard more complaints about the audience, nor do I blame either, I was majorly ticked off with the way the audience behaves now a days. But this was a better experience in the theater, people were quiet except for EXCITING moments, and had their cell phones off for the entire movie! The audience screamed when necessary and we all clapped for the action moments towards the end of the movie. This was the best theater experiences I've had in a long time.
Now, the movie was great. Having Wes apart of the team I think helped a bit because it kept the feel of the original horror movie. It had perfect scary moments, cliché's that will always get the horror fans going crazy, and a great story. I would highly recommend this movie any day! What a great time!
