The Hills Have Eyes, Part 2 (1984)

I saw this movie because I was such an enormous fan of the original, and the remake. However, I was very dissapointed in this one. I tried to enjoy this movie on several different levels and failed to find a redeaming factor. It ended up leaving me with memories of "Jeepers Creepers 2" with the bus-load of kids doomed from the start story line. Overall, the tie in to the original 'Hills' was extremely weak, with several uneffective relatives invented and inserted for no good reason. Dont waste your time, unless you've seen about everything else out there.

The original was great and I think they should have left it that way. The remake wasn't as well written, and I really didn't get much into this since I ended up ironing my clothes halfway through the movie while watching it. For a classic movie, this one can be up there with some of the worse, but if you want to know how it continues, by all means check it out.

Although this movie somewhat continues the story where the original left off, why go back? Why didn't the police round the rest of the cannibals up? This movie is just a repeat of the first. Who didn't see it coming where the chic was civilized from the first movie?

Every once in a while, a great filmmaker puts out a big ole pot of pooh! Of course we can't really blame Wes entirely for the stinker that is this film since it was the studio and Hollywood machine that put the screws to him to give them a sequel. Hollywood pumps out junk all the time anymore. As a filmmaker, there's nothing redeeming I can say about this movie- not the acting, cinematography... nothing.
