'The Hills Have Eyes' is a 2006 American remake of Wes Craven's 1977 Original same name film Written by filmmaking partners Alexandre Aja and Gregory Levasseur of the French horror film Haute Tension, and directed by Aja, the film follows a family who becomes the target of a group of mutants after their car breaks down in the desert. The Movie Remake is intensely savage and stomach-churning survival shocker, which in other words it made me, want to be sick most of the time but a out-standing gore fest of disgusting, very brutal Remake movie for are time & over headed bloody counts.

The Movie style, element & theme are truly brilliant & excellent for this type & setting of this Remake/Update version of the original classic, the music/sound background is fucking aswome with creepy, scary, horror music, with a hint of suspense/thrilling sound that make you jump up (or just on me), also with rock toned & great tune's like the 60's/70's summer tunes and that it does have that odd beat of Horror tune, the director Alexandre Aja has really out done himself on this perfect gore fest of an update on 1977 Movie in 2006 version which was Utley brilliant film-making & well crafted in every way a Horror Remake should be (if you going to make a remake from the originals), while I love the style & directing he did in this Remake Movie, the acting was absolutely mind-blowing in the Horror updated Remake which the actors are; Aaron Stanford, Emilie de Ravin, Ted Levine, Dan Byrd, Laura Ortiz, Vinessa Shaw, Kathleen Quinlan, Tom Bower (Which all cast members did a huge brilliant job towards the Movie) & the rest of the unknown cast members were ace in the film and the genre which is only the Horror & Thriller which do soo much for the movie its amazing how they got everything all just right & at the right moment & time in the movie its terrific set of genre in the movie & for its type of a Remake is great.

The Movie is an utter gore fest that ever hardcore Horror would like to see, the film start out really gory & sweet adverts of the 50's with the Bombs happening with the people still living nearby, the storyline/plot is brilliant for the overwhelming gory, scary, thrilling & Horror take on this Charming 2006 Remake for the classic 1977 original same name film, the film had some Romance & black humour but it's only a little amount, the movie has its odd scary & jumps in the movie, very great use on the thrilling & suspense in the movie, the night time is the bad & gory death bits but an enjoyable to watch, the Death scene are mind-blowing bloody/gory take in the film (I hated when they killed the family's & the two family dogs), I love the trailer for this Remake its soo amazing to me I just keep watching because its retro/cool, Like how he bring Wes Cravens classic to movie blood/ gore fest as an update remake & keep true, but with more understanding to the movie, while the Remake isn't better than the original but it's an understand pieces of film-making Remake of Horror/Thriller (as I think it's part of a cinematic of Horror/Remake), the movie has great use of make-up design & the body suites (for a remake horror movie), I think this is the best Horror, Thriller & Remake Movie of 2006 & of the decade (2000-2010), it has some of the disgusting, violence, tunesful, scariest, shocking moments in this terrifying remake and for me I think near the future it will, it's a defiant Family vacation gone wrong in every way you don't want to happened to you, it's a brilliant rare Horror Remake movie, the Movie is different for teenagers & grown adults not for people that cant handle the extreme bloody & gore in-take, but is different for are generation but also the original is to and more people need to see the original before the remake, The mutant girl Ruby was the nicest one of that evil human eaten group & help the family out, its and the ending is truly magnifies with its bloodiness, full of action, cougar & braveness, as I first thought it was a happy ending as some parts of the family member savvied, but it leave a great mystery at the ending as they show the ending with one more still alive (from the sequel it say all the family members all died) so it lifted that mystery out the window sadly, but was really happy with this perfect Remake Horror & thriller update version ending, one of my Favourite Horror/Remake & of all time Movie movies ever made as it is a truly Masterpiece, Epic & soon to be classic update from the Original (again no remake can beat the original). Lv It!!!
