Reviews

Film Threat -
When Aja really starts in on the brutal slayings, he spares no one any comfort at all.

The Hollywood Reporter -
This remake of the 1977 Wes Craven cult classic is brutally horrific. And that's a compliment.

|
Variety -
Besides proving to be a faithful mimic of Craven's filmmaking, Aja pours on the gore. But where Aja's version really leaps beyond Craven's both atmospherically and on the violence scale is in the second hour.

ReelViews -
The Hills Have Eyes gets points for gore and general creepiness, and for occasional periods of tension, but it's not scary enough to linger long in the subconscious.

Empire -
Fans of the original won't be disappointed, but ultimately it's just another decent, arguably unnecessary, '70s horror remake.
