Critic Reviews:
But as with most Wes Craven films you can view it as some sort of intellectual social commentary or you can view it as a simple horror movie and The Hills Have Eyes is as uncompromising a horror film as anything else that the 1970s could throw at audiences.
..despite the film’s ugliness, ghastly violence, and outlandish characters, The Hills Have Eyes has more on its mind than cheap thrills. It works to indict the very audience that wants to gawk and cringe at its depictions of lower class monsters.
The Hills Have Eyes is a classic and a favorite in so many horror lover’s collections.
