A Genuine Review of The Hills Have Eyes

Rating: 8/10 (27 January 2013)

The Hills Have Eyes is a 2006 Horror film Directed by Alexandre Aja.The film opens up with a truly terrifying slaughter in the middle of the New Mexican desert.We are then introduced to the Carter Family taking a road trip to honor their parents anniversary.The Cartes decide to take a "short cut" through the desert courtesy of the local crazy.The Carters get into a car wreck that is caused by unknown persons hiding in the hills. Soon enough the carters find out that their are cannibals hiding in the hills waiting to devour and dismember them.Half of the family is killed in the first attack and the baby is abducted by the mutants.One of the sole survivors goes on a hunt to find his daughter and avenge his fallen family members.The Hills have eyes is a truly frightening at points and use the atmosphere to great effects.In my opinion this is a better film than the original in many ways. Watch if you love gore and horror.Skip if you are squeamish. 3/4
