The Hills Have Eyes 1 & 2

The Hills Have Eyes
Based on the original film by fright master Wes Craven, The Hills Have Eyes is the story of a family road trip that goes terrifyingly awry when the travelers become stranded in a government atomic zone. Miles from nowhere, the Carter family soon realizes the seemingly uninhabited wasteland is actually the breeding ground of a blood-thirsty mutant family…and they are the prey.
The Hills Have Eyes 2
After a group of hapless National Guard troops fails a training exercise, their commanding officer (Flex Alexander, Snakes On A Plane) orders them to deliver supplies to some scientists in Yuma Flats, New Mexico. The mutants from the first film (the unfortunate victims who live on nuclear testing ground) have returned to terrorise a group of Department of Defence researchers. The unlucky soldiers happen upon the remains of their camp (and its denizens), and the horrors begin. The inbred family of cannibals stalks the soldiers and picks them off, one by one, in gruesome fashion. Alejandre Aja (High Tension) directed the 2006 remake, but this sequel replaces Aja with Martin Weisz, whose first feature, Rohtenberg, was banned in his native Germany. Written by genre master Wes Craven and his son Jonathan, The Hills Have Eyes 2 is a sequel to the remake of Cravens original 1977 film. Its no coincidence that Craven changed this sequels victims from a band of motorcyclists to a group of unlucky soldiers, giving the film political undertones. For a brief moment, this film addresses the idea that war may be the worst kind of horror, even when its judged against mutant cannibals.
