What planet's 'the real world' on?

That's pretty much Craven's important works....what did you make of The Hills Have Eyes Part II?

It's been a while since I watched it so can't really recall the details right now. I thought the thing with the blind girl was pretty funny though – blind people with 'special powers' obviously being a recurrent theme in a lot of horror type films, and as far as I can remember they all try really hard to pretend her blindness isn't an issue. Then she ends up saving them. I think.

Edit – I'm voting for Scream now because it hasn't got a single vote so far!

I used to be a WC fan, but recently i find his movies aren't reaching the highs they used to get to

i voted last house as my fave as its the most shocking (the remake sucked monkey balls) and Deadly Friend being a close second as i think that was awesome.

But i think the older WC gets the less he makes good movies which is a shame as he made some amazing movies back in the day.

Last House On The Left. That's all that needs to be said IMO :clap:

It was really difficult choice, but I went with A Nightmare on Elm Street as, in terms of quality, it's a better made film than The Last House on the Left and it was really a coin toss decision between Nightmare on Elm Street and The Hills Have Eyes.

Same here and is definitely my favourite film from Craven. It walks a fine line between fantasy and reality, dealing as it does wth an alleged true story. Some of it is a bit hard to swallow - but you know what they say, Ruth is stranger than Richard. Sorry, that's not it.....truth is stranger than fiction! :lol:

So yes, Serpent gets my vote. I do like the Freddy films, they're like panto horror as the series rolls on, and I kind of dig that. Don't know why exactly, but I do.

Found this DEADLY FRIEND gif. while browsing online:

Nice double bill!

Would love to have seen HILLS on the big screen!

Found this online today about Hills have eyes.


Here why they have a hills have eyes poster in Evil dead the scene

The Hills Have Eyes is admired by fellow horror filmmakers, so much so that one of them—Evil Dead director Sam Raimi—chose to pay homage to it in a strange way. In the scene in which Brenda is quivering in bed after having been brutalized by Pluto and Mars, a ripped poster for Steven Spielberg’s Jaws is visible above her head. Raimi saw it as a message.

“I took it to mean that Wes Craven … was saying ‘Jaws was just pop horror. What I have here is real horror.’”

As a joking response to the scene, Raimi put a ripped poster for The Hills Have Eyes in his now-classic film The Evil Dead (1981). Not to be outdone, Craven responded by including a clip from The Evil Dead in his classic A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984).

And afterwards they hung Freddys glove in the workshed in evil dead 2 it was also included in the cellar in ash vs evil dead
