Review of The Hills Run Red (2009) by Shelby I — 03 Oct 2012
A good solid horror flick, Hills is the story of a young filmmaker looking for a lost 80's slasher flick by seeking out it's equally lost director, Wilson Wyler Concannon . He hooks up with the director's drug addict daughter and returns to the backwoods town where "The Hills Run Red" was filmed.
Needless to say, he and his friends wind up not liking what they find. A good cast including a creepy William Sadler as Concannon and the hot Sophie Monk as his daughter, helps bring this wicked little movie to life and director Dave Parker does nicely combining atmosphere, tension and gore into a deviantly fun little horror flick.
A sick, twisted and very gory tale that not only pays homage to these types of movies but, is one, and a very nasty one, at that. Small but, very effective horror deserves more attention then it got. F.
Y.I.: watch into the credits.
