The Hills Have Eyes
(USA, 2006, 105 minutes)
A holidaying family gets stuck in the New Mexico desert at the mercy of a savage group of cannibal mutants. Brutal yet striking slasher pic remaking a 1977 cult classic with added blood and guts and none-too-subtle political comment; definitely not for the squeamish, but well above the average for this sort of genre picture.
A Twentieth Century-Fox release. Fox Searchlight Pictures presents a Craven-Maddalena Films/Peter Locke production, made in association with Dune Entertainment and Major Studio Partners. Starring Aaron Stanford, Kathleen Quinlan, Vinessa Shaw, Emilie de Ravin, Dan Byrd, Tom Bower, Billy Drago, Robert Joy; and Ted Levine. Directed by Alexandre Aja; produced by Wes Craven, Marianne Maddalena and Peter Locke; screenplay by Alexandre Aja and Gregory Levasseur, based on Wes Craven's film "The Hills Have Eyes"; music by TomandAndy; director of photography, Maxime Alexandre; production designer, Joseph Nemec III; costume designer, Danny Glicker; film editor, Baxter; special make-up effects by Gregory Nicotero and Howard Berger.
