My only problem with remakes, is that some movies have no need for being remade.

LIKE TCM! or even Evil Dead now.
We're all faithful too our original movie.

Its like taking a Music album you love, and remaking it with new guitars and extra songs that don't fit.

I'm fine with a few remakes, but honestly its just a money thing and no one can come up with any new ideas.

After watching the original Hills Have Eyes I was left with one lingering thought. "Why the hell did I waste my free movie rental coupon on that piece of... *cough*" This film was neither scary nor entertaining. I spent the entire film waiting for the end, which came far too late.

As for the idea of a remake, I have mixed-feelings. There is potential to make a quality picture out of the this terrible waste of time and money, but why bother? Is it that hard to come up with new ideas?

PS Despite what you may think, I am actually a Craven fan.

Hills Have Eyes Remake

The guys who made High Tension(known as Switchblade Romance in England) are directing so judging them on that standard then this should be something to really look forward to.
Let's just hope that the studio lets them get on with it and not hold them back because these blokes really know what real horror is all about.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was a real wimpy affair but I have high hopes for a cracking remake of The Hills Have Eyes now I know who's making it.

hmm the music score on the Norwegian version is made by "Biosphere"..a well known ambient artist...If you like electronic music you should check out one of his albums "Patashnik"....

Damn do they have to remake EVERY movie? Theres so many books that would make great translations onto film. I heard this Hills is gonna have even sicker looking mutants but the original was really a classic...then again so is Dawn of the Dead.
