Yes The Hills Have Eyes 2 is focused on gore and gross out horror but isn't that what slasher fans go to see slasher movies for.The Hills Have Eyes 2 doesn't try to be anything more than it is it just tries to satisfy it's audience by doing what the first film did which was create a feeling of isolation and claustrophobia.Most critics are calling this movie generic and exactly the same as every other film of it's kind when The Hills Have Eyes (1977) seems to be just Wes Cravens version of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) and The Hills Have Eyes (2006) was just Wes Cravens version of Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003).It seems Wes Craven is heavily influenced by The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and films just like it so just because this movie is a sequel don't judge it too harshly on originality because other than Last House on the Left, Nightmare On Elm Street, and The Serpent And The Rainbow Wes Craven has never been all that original.The Hills Have Eyes 2 primarily focuses on the similar things The Descent used for scares which would be create an atmosphere of isolation and claustrophobia almost as if there is no possible way out.The first movie was definitely a cut above the average slasher whereas The Hills Have Eyes 2 is much more predictable and follows a typical formula adding a few new horror elements and surprisingly amazing gore effects.Don't think this is anywhere near as annoyingly formulaic as movies like the awful Wrong Turn, the semi bad See No Evil, or the unbearably pointless Hostel, The Hills Have Eyes 2 is at least entertaining.The most original thing this movie does is have the victims actually seek out the killers with weapons and full intentions of slaughtering those who threaten their lives something that you want in a slasher film but you rarely get.The movie's cinematography is both beautiful and creepy much like it's predecessor and creates the feeling of being lost and alone perfectly.The storyline is quite similar to a lot of slasher movies even the ones deemed masterpieces or classics so nothing to fantastic down that end.The acting is great you can easily believe the fear and terror in the performances and identify with certain characters and hope they live instead of wanted to see them die.The Hills Have Eyes 2 is in no way original but nothing in the slasher genre is, most cult followers of slasher movies typically like movies that are almost all the same in terms of film technique i can count at least 50 similarities between The Hills Have Eyes, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Wrong Turn.Basically don't go in expecting anything groundbreaking or new I recommend The Hills Have Eyes 2 for a rental on a boring Saturday night.
