I like dis movie. The rape scene isn't as intense as in the first one (which is a good thing) but it does show the ways the mutants "handle" women. The opening sequence is really realistic and it is a major gross out scene in the film.

Any1 who likes a good horror film will like dis. it iz way much better than the first one.

I just saw dis movie yesterday. It is more intense and bloodier than the first one. The opening sequence where a woman is giving birth while tied nude to a bed is a frightning and gross out scene. But it is one of those scenes that when u c it, u can't stop seeing it. The rape scene is much brutal and terrofying that the rape in the first one. The only difference is that they don't show as much

This didn't impress me, I might buy it when the price goes down. The first one was fantastic, and this wasn't very good at all. Forgettable.

Press Release:

Quote: CENTURY CITY, Calif. – Shockingly horrific and graphically violent, the chilling sequel to last year’s successful remake of the cult-classic film, THE HILLS HAVE EYES 2 bleeds onto DVD July 17th from Fox Home Entertainment. Co-written by horror maven Wes Craven (A Nightmare On Elm Street, Scream Trilogy) with his son Jonathan Craven, the blood-soaked sequel picks up two years after the ill-fated Carter family was attacked in the New Mexico desert. THE HILLS HAVE EYES 2 follows a group of rookie National Guard soldiers who come across a deserted research facility in the middle of nowhere. When a distress signal is located in a distant mountain range, a search and rescue mission commences, leading them straight into the clutches of a deranged group of cannibalistic mutants and a relentlessly brutal fight for their lives. Cutting-edge filmmaker Martin Weisz (Butterfly: A Grimm Love Story) directs a talented cast of hot up-and-coming talents including Jacob Vargas (Bobby, Are We Done Yet?), Flex Alexander (Snakes on a Plane, Out Cold), Lee Thompson Young (Akeelah and the Bee, Friday Night Lights), Daniella Alonso (Wrong Turn 2) and Ben Crowley (Inside Man, “Glory Days&rdquo

A group of National Guard trainees on a routine mission stop at the Yuma Flats Training and Testing Facility in New Mexico only to find the isolated camp mysteriously deserted.

But this time, the mutant patriarch isn’t just looking for a quick bite – he needs female breeders to continue his family line!

OK! For the fans of the first Hills Have Eyes movie...IT SUCKED!...for the sequel...i thought it was WAYY BETTER! It was intense and i loved the music in the movie...Not like the first one where it sounded boring and less upbeat...But ne wayy..i like the promotion poster for the DVD except the blood lettering looks really fake..

Simon Abrams

Didn't like this or the first remake. I didn't like the first remake because it was pretty much a carbon copy of Craven's original with a lot more gore in it and nothing to say. This one was just boring; it had promise in the beginning but I would agree with liono in saying it was no worse than the first, hence boring.

Michael Greenwaldt

I'll check it out. I loved the first and even though my hopes aren't terribly high for this sequel after it got such a bashing from critics and even horror fans I still think there's a good chance I'll enjoy it, especially on DVD.

More of a comedy.

Timo Ritzen

That`s fast! isn`t even out in cinema`s around here...

liono86

Ok, why is people saying "liked the first one, hated this one?" I mean, c'mon guys, The Hills Have Eyes remake wasn't that good anyway. The sequel, IMO, isn't any worse. I probably won't buy it, but, i'd watch it maybe once more.

Fabricio De Zuasnabar

i dont care... im getting this...

Sulaco426

The first remake was awesome. This one however was one of the worst movies that I've seen. Absolutely terrible!!

RentFreak610

MIGHT buy. this one was very borderline for me.

Horror's been that way for the last thirty years. It's always been primarily made up of dodgy gore flicks.

It's what the majority of the public wants, which is why they're released.
I actually enjoyed this remake and plan on picking up the unrated cut.

Okay, so I've heard that there are spiders in this movie. Too bad for all arachnophobics(Is that even a word?)out there.

Like the cover.

twingrin

Yeah, so are there any spiders in this one. I plan on buying it and seeing it with my friend who has arachnophobia. If there are can you please describe it? Is it fat and hairy? Because he can handle the little ones.

Squeek81

Part 1 was awesome, great special effects, but this i may just rent, heard bad things.

Kyle Mertes

Didn't see the remake, don't plan on ever watching it or this.

I was thrown for a loop when I read that a theater in New York somewhere accidentally showed this film to a sold out crowd of parents and kids waiting to watch The Last Mimzy. Apparently one of the film's most gruesome scenes is the prologue. Kids literally jumped up screaming and fled the theater as the parents followed and unleashed hell on the employees of the theater. The reels got mixed up and the workers very quickly corrected it, refunded the parents' money plus gave them free movie tickets and showed the right film.

Why is horror nowadays limited to in your face blood and guts and gore? What happened to suspense? What happened to psychological terror?

starman99

I am not even going to bother watching this garbage.

stevesoprano

Ok, so I'm flipping through the channels to seewhat was coming on latyer that evening on a premium channels, so i see The Hills Have Eyeys 2, i looked at the description and the year was 2007, i knew it had to be a mistake, it turned out to be the original Eyes 2, oh well somebody made a mistake, anyway, i really liked the first one, will wait for when it is really on max or HBO...

GRJR721

coqui2k

Awesome artwork

Dunny

I didn't rate the remake but I'll probably buy this when it's cheap.

DarthElektra

I enjoyed this film, I'll be picking up the unrated version.

shopboy

saw this on my birthday i almost shot myself afterwards, this was god awful what a huge dissapointment i did a questionaire at end of the film i ripped the movie to shreds

David Blackwell

I liked the Hills remake. I will watch the sequel. Love that unrated cover art.

Matt Thompson

It's pretty bad. The fact it's completely boring is its biggest sin. Quite a bit worse than Hills '06.

chris burge

Horrible movie. One of the worst horror movies I have ever seen.

Gabe Powers

Southern Comfort is a movie I should own.

Anthony Tan

No dog flashback. Saw it at the theatres. More like a gory version of "Southern Comfort."

Gabe Powers

I haven't seen it, but it can't possibly be worse than the original Hills Have Eyes Part Two, unless it also features a picnic scene and a dog flashback.

Kaya Savas

they should add ". . . and more c**p than ever before."

movielover1

CAN'T WAIT!!!WILL BUY

Cheddar J. Cheese

Brad Hamerly

SlitherThru
