The Hills Have Eyes 2

Gratuitous, slow-as-molasses and interminably dull-witted, this is a horror movie for no one. A troop of trainee soldiers on duty in Kandahar find plenty of mutated monster men to defend against in the middle of a rocky former U.S. nuclear testing site. Atrocious acting accompanies every labored shot of head splattering Karo-syrup-blood death inflicted by a bunch of cave-dwelling dudes intent on impregnating a female U.S. soldier that they kidnap. A nude grimy young mutant woman gives birth to a bloody stillborn baby as a hardcore introduction to a horror movie with no tempo and, more importantly, no insight into the personalities of its villain freak tribe. Dialogue runs the gambit from "Shitman the Barbarian" to "smelling like shit" in a crappy stinker where even the cameraman blows. The title is the only link to Wes Craven's original "Hills Have Eyes" movie.
Rated R. 89 mins. (F) (One Star)
