Hills Have Eyes Again!

Rating: 8/10 (12 July 2008)

I actually liked this! I watched it hesitantly because I always liked the original and didn't want to see some slick, watered down, CGI version. The original is somewhat gritty-something Hollywood can't do anymore. In fact, I avoided it in the theaters and didn't watch it until it came out on DVD. But I finally watched it and was pleasantly surprised. It was tense and tight and the acting was certainly better than the original. I missed Michael Berryman as Pluto. He has so much character. But the cast here is good and movie moved right along. Short & sweet-just how I like my horror. It's too bad the remakes of Texas Chainsaw Massacre weren't as good as this.
