One of the best and most underrated horror films of the 00's.

Probably one of the very few horror remakes that surpass the original.

Monsieur Aja is one sick bastard.

More horror remakes should be as great as this one. Now, I'm not a fan of the original so in my opinion it wouldn't have taken much to do it better, but regardless, this is one brutal and blood soaked tale. All the actors are great - you feel terrible when the attacks start because you genuinely like these people. Which makes it all the more gratifying when they start fighting back. This one definitely had some ballsy scenes - for a remake it didn't sugarcoat anything. It was just as gritty and disturbing as anything that came out in the 70s and 80s.

Alexandre Aja's remake of the Wes Craven classic is all that and a refreshing bag of horror awesomeness. It's just good, gory fun.

What is not to love about this movie?
It's disturbing, it's chilling, it's just all together perfect.
Plus if you really think about it, it's OUR fault to all of this horror, since the U.S Government had a nuclear testing site in the area they "broke down." Where these really attractive (joke) creatures start messing shit UP!
If you want to watch a good horror movie, watch this!
Then of course, the sequel.

Without question one of the (if not the) best in the seemingly endless string of horror remakes over the last decade or so. “The Hills Have Eyes” has some of the polish that plagues many of its fellow remakes, but here it is married with grim, gritty reality – something sorely lacking with its contemporaries.

The setup is full of tension and when that initial release happens with the first attack on the family it is brutal and horrifying. In the journey through the second and third acts we feel like we’re actually observing these dreadful occurrences instead of just going through the motions of standard horror tropes. Actions of the characters don’t always make 100% sense and I’m not a huge fan of the last shot of the film, but “The Hills Have Eyes” is hugely effective.

"Between 1945 and 1962 the United States conducted 331 atmospheric nuclear test. Today, the government still denies the genetic effects caused by the radioactive fallout..."

One of the better remakes. It feels so much like a 70's horror film, and it get's pretty heartfelt. Great film overall.

Before watching this film I was told by a friend of mine who's a seasoned horror fan that this was the scariest film he'd ever seen. So I was really looking forward to watching this, what a complete and utter let down.

I literally don't understand why this film seems so popular amongst horror fans calling it a '21st century masterpiece', I'm all for gore in films and although I don't like rape (obviously) I understand sometimes it helps the plot along but in this film I feel that both are unnecessary and just put into to make it appeal to the modern audience who eat stuff like this up.

I haven't seem the original but I think the actual plot, despite it's holes, isn't too bad and could have been a good and interesting film if executed well. Sadly it wasn't my thing and I feel it could have been an awful lot better hence the low rating.

Una película horrible, una familia va de viaje pero se pierde y le pide ayuda a un gasolinero pero resulta que este hombre les dice un "atajo" para llegar rápido al sitio. Cuando de la nada las llantas de su carro son destruidas ellos piensan que es un simple accidente pero es una trampa.

A fairly decent horror film, albeit a bit slow to kickstart (it takes 40+ minutes to do so). However, when it does, it barely stops. It's far from being perfect, but it's still pretty intense.

Watched the 'Unrated' version.

Typical horror film filled with as many clichés as you could imagine. The horror genre needs to die (no pun intended). It really is too much to ask for nowadays for horror films to be as brilliant as Alien, The Shining, The Thing and American Werewolf in London, etc. Horror has had its run and needs to go away for a very long time,

You know, until the Coen's direct one. Then I'd be content with no more being produced.
