With all the great reviews its been getting from horror fans though, Im kinda interested in seeing it...


Just remember it is different from the original

The original had more character development with the people and what not where in the remake they just go right at it


The remake is enjoyable though.... like the one person said.. Aja did a fantastic job

It was pretty good compared to the original, but I couldn't stop giggling. I hate being a teen girl. I can't even shut myself up. I dunno, parts of it were pretty funny... Ok, I'm just digging my own grave here. I'm ready, tell me how stupid I am. I don't care, I think I'm pretty stupid too sometimes. :p Everyone has there moments. Mine was just during this movie...

i felt the movie almost had a TCM feel to it because the atmosphere was so strong.

Well, The first is more of a clash of classes. The upper-middle class family vs. the poor hillbilly family. No nuclear testing or such things. It's more straight forward. There is also more character development in the first.

My wife and I got this this past weekend. Out of all the movies on on demand it was either The Hills Have Eyes, or Syriana. Neither of us wanted to think much, and i had read a couple of posts here that people liked it, so we gave it a shot.

We loved it.

It was nice to see a brutal horror flick, even with some sexual references, that wasnt a horny Eli Roth titfest. The gore was just right, and the kills (of ,the mutants, anyway) were incredibly satisfying.

Its also nice to see a dog get to be a real hero for a change.

just a thought .. i havent listened to any commentaries (on either film) so i'm wondering if the girl's name (Rose) is a deliberate pun

(a Rose among the thorns)
