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. Aja’s 2010 “Piranha 3D” remake hit the spot, but there’s nothing like his version of “Hills Have Eyes”. Talk about pulling no punches.
I can only speak for the 1st one (I have yet to see Part 2, which wasn’t directed by him). You can either get it alone, or with the sequel. Alexandre Aja is currently tackling the live-action version of Japan’s “Space Adventure Cobra“.

I haven’t seen “Piranha 3D” yet but you’re right, the Aja’s “Hills” is actually quite good. Certainly better than most horror remakes. And did you just sneak an anime reference in this post? How dare you. 😛
Another good one was THE STEPFATHER (which he didn’t direct) but it was pretty good! One of worst was THE HITCHER, you see that? Hey, that doesn’t count, it’s LIVE ACTION. =D
