Why it’s HorroRated

Hills Have Eyes Part 2 is Wes Craven clearly not that interested in being here, and the result shows. Heavy on flashback footage from the original and light on invention. It exists for franchise completionists and not much else. Even Craven has disowned it.

Synopsis

A group of bikers heading to a race takes the wrong road and breaks down near familiar territory. Craven was not enthusiastic about returning here and the result shows in the construction. Heavy on flashback footage from the original and light on invention. For fans who need to complete the series.
