    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Wes Craven's The Hills Have Eyes remains one of my favourite horror films of all time; gritty, funny and relentless.

    I quite liked Aja's updating which made the film more of a 'fantasy' but had enough visual inventiveness and good pacing to keep me engrossed.

    The Hills Have Eyes 2 came along hot on the heels of Aja's remake, doubtlessly to cash in on its success and it's a disaster. Despite some attempts at topicality the dialogue is pretty flat and the story non-existent - its just a group of soldiers being picked off one by one.

    This tedious excuse for a few gore effects strung together on the thinnest of plots had more than outstayed its welcome after 30 minutes and I couldn't even be bothered to fast forward through the chapters to see if if it improved. Dire!

    two words....money spinner!! Pretty much the same as the first movie just a lack of storyline. There was something you could relate to in the first with the family stranded in the middle of nowhere but in this you really dont care about the characters at all. Poor poor film avoid at all costs!! I gave it 1/2 a star because you have to!!

    the original hills have eyes was brilliant, the redone was not bad, but this was terrible.

    silly blood, silly acting, very predictable.

    one word - crap

    What a silly film not very convincing and not very scary Got bored after a few minutes and kept channel flicking until the ending pleased to see the back of it I could not recommend it. Acting was very poor which did not help

    Quality action packed horror. This film has been done before, but none quite as good as this, for the acting is believable for this genre, and the jumps and suspense measure up plenty.
