The Hills Have Eyes Unrated Collection: Parts 1 and 2 Blu-ray (Fox)
RELEASE DATE: September 13, 2011 I’m not one for remakes, but I’m down for anything with French director Alexandre Aja’s (“High Tension” aka “Haute Tension”) name in the credits.

I can only speak for the 1st one (I have yet to see Part 2, which wasn’t directed … Continue reading
