The Hills Have Eyes, Part 2 Reviews
ehh it got old/boring
the movie wouldnt have been as bad if it wasint filmed like friday the 13th because in my opinion them movies suck. it was like there was too much walking around and investigating then there was chasing , theres only one real chase scene when pluto or w/e steals the dirt bike, which is a cool scene but after that it was just them walking around being followed by random kills. and the ending was just liek teh 1st one except they get some dumbass to go into a bus for what ever reason and it blows up and hre comes runing out and falls down a well. Its a bad movie friday the 13th is better and i hate them movies.
Not as great as it could have been...
I've seen far worse horror films ('Boogeyman', anyone?) than this one, but it still was not one of Wes Craven's best. I'll spare the synopsis since everyone else has written it out, but add a few of the film's strengths and weaknesses.
The story line is rather interesting, though a little too convenient. It's far too coincidental that Ruby becomes civilized then through circumstance ends up in the exact same area from which she escaped.
Michael Berryman and Janus Blythe were excellent. Their performances were two of the three professional (and watchable) ones in the film. Pluto and Ruby were two of my favorite characters in the first film, and I was hoping the second film would at least do them justice. After the opening sequence it all went downhill, but Janus Blythe and Michael Berryman gave strong, solid performances, fitting easily into their roles.
The rest of the cast was, sadly, awful. These people were among the most wooden and obnoxious I have seen in any film, horror or otherwise. One guy was so completely idiotic my 17 year-old son and I both cheered when he was flattened by a boulder. No need to ask which one. Ten minutes into the movie you'll know. And you'll cheer too.
Robert Houston was also very convincing and natural in the role of Bobby. Bobby was clearly still haunted by the trauma he suffered in the desert, and the scene in which he was in session with his psychologist was extremely believable. If only the rest of the film had been as strong...
I gave it three stars, one for Michael Berryman, Janus Blythe and Robert Houston.
The rest of the film is a cure for insomnia.
