The hills clan is one terrifying family and there savageness is nothing short of what I would expect from the offspring of a dirty hooker and a 50 foot tall grizzly man. There's really such a primal fear going on in this movie and that constant worry about being watched and stranded in the desert. Ok ok and the death of the first dog was terrible as well but I was prepared for it and still no animal death compares to the puppy in SWF. The scene with Pluto and Mars stealing the baby and the women fighting for the baby is so shocking and really disheartening, Mars biting the head off the bird and eating that raw meat.yowzas. Why can I always find star wars look alikes within horror movies?Īnyways, I found the original to be very unsettling. No comparison picture of the hills clan mother exists so use your imagination. I can only find a picture of her action figure which is strangely kinder in appearance than the real thing. But Ruby pretty much looked like a model except with a bad tooth or two and the mom just looked like that fat lady who dances in Jabba the Hut's palace. That is not to say of course that the original hills clan isn't terrifying-because I have never seen a more naturally terrifying person than Pluto. The creepy houses with the mannequins, and the hills clan looking more deformed I think works wonders. One thing I do enjoy a little more in the remake is that they play up on that old nuclear testing wasteland thing. The Hills Have Eyes reinforces the idea that you should never go driving around nuclear testing sites. Watching the original, I am surprised at how true that remake is (except for the end) to the original and it kind of makes me delighted that there are still people out there who wish to preserve what is sacred. I caught the remake on TV one night in my dorm and thought it was fairly decent until the last bit. So believe it or not I had never seen the original Hills Have Eyes.
