The Hills Have Eyes 3 Netflix

Volition The Hills Have Eyes 3 Ever Happen?

20th Century Studios

Director Wes Craven may be best known for Freddy Krueger (who's surprisingly handsome in real life) fromA Nightmare on Elm Street and Ghostface fromScream, but long before both of those franchises he found success with some other pair of films — The Hills Take Optics.

Not long after Chicken's directorial debut — the horrific, sexually violent home invasion film The Last House on the Left –Chicken was afforded the chance to pursue his talent for the unsettling with a little help from producer Peter Locke. With the existent-life inspiration of Scottish cannibal Alexander "Sawney Bean" and the and so-recent smash success of Tobe Hooper's now iconic film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Craven decided on who his new monsters would exist: carnivorous hillbillies.

The original The Hills Have Eyes is admittedly iconic for how graphic and unsettling it is. Almost no one is spared, not even the dogs. Information technology'due south a vision of how quickly and easily people can turn feral, even those from polite, suburban society. Unfortunately, while the first motion-picture show was a success, the 1985 sequel ran out of money during production, was padded with footage from the original film, and got shelved for two years before releasing straight to video. Not exactly a recipe for success.

On the upside, a footing left dormant eventually finds itself rich enough in nutrients to spring forth with new life. In 2006, filmmaking partners Alexandre Aja and Grégory Levasseur crafted a The Hills Have Eyes remake with Wes Craven's blessing. That pic was successful enough to spawn its own sequel a year later on. Let's talk about those two films, what makes them enjoyable, and the possibility of a part three now 14 years later.

Is 15 years also long?

The 2006 remake of The Hills Accept Eyes has a largely similar plot to the original salve for the increased focus on the origin of our family unit of cannibal hillbillies –they're nuclear, and we don't hateful they are a "nuclear family," we hateful they are a family mutated by nuclear radiations. The 2007 sequel to the remake affirms that the armed services is at to the lowest degree partially aware of the mutated colina folk, and that at least one of the irradiated clans out there is attempting to kidnap normal passersby with the intention of impregnating them and continuing to grow the brood.

The first film faired reasonably well, netting $lxx million at the box office (via Box Function Mojo). The sequel was completed this fourth dimension, but wasn't as well received by critics and but wound upwardly making $37 million (via Box Role Mojo). Yet, it'south worth noting that the movie only cost $15 1000000 and had a solid home video release grossing another $30 meg (via The Numbers). That's probably plenty money for at to the lowest degree a straight-to-video threequel featuring the adjacent generation of nuclear hill people.

However, with 15 years in the rearview it's unlikely a direct sequel will exist made now. While streaming services sometimes proceed old franchises, and there are multiple fan-fabricated trailers for a third picture show that doesn't actually exist, it just doesn't make sense to put the roman numeral "3" at the end of a movie that would exist statistically more likely to make more money if information technology was marketed as another remake.

That being said, the original The Hills Have Eyes franchise did have an unofficial third entry called Heed Ripper which came out in 1995, ten years later The Hills Accept Optics Part Ii. So information technology's technically possible that a company similar Shudder could show fans some love.

The concept took a Wrong Turn

Saban Films

We've gone a long time without talking about the film franchise that has always felt similar the spiritual successor to The Hills Have Eyes — Wrong Plow. The Wrong Turn movies also feature people living in the backwoods who trap and torment people who get lost on the road and wind up ensnared in hillbilly territory. The Wrong Turn movies may not be universally well received, but it's worth noting that up until 2014, there were half-dozen numbered entries in that franchise.

However, in 2021 Incorrect Turn got a fresh coat of paint from the human being who started the franchise, screenwriter Alan B. McElroy. The new Wrong Plough splits off from the original franchise in a number of central means, not to the lowest degree of which in that it introduces a brand new reason for their to exist a group of hillbillies hiding in the wood — they're a cult. Specifically, the cult (called The Foundation) was originally a group who thought the United States would crumble under the weight of the Ceremonious War and secreted themselves abroad so they could later serve as a foundation for a new gild. It'southward an interesting premise that reshapes the Wrong Turn franchise in an interesting way. With a surprisingly solid critical response, we wouldn't be surprised if The Hills Accept Eyes did something similarly high-concept.

Here's one more reason we call back a remake is more likely — rumor of 1 was reported on a little over a year agone by We Got This Covered. According to the rumor, the film would be directed by Fede Álvarez who plant success remaking another horror archetype: Evil Dead. We Got This Covered isn't exactly known as a reliable source, so take this rumor with a healthy serving of salt, only the idea does brand more sense than continuing a remake nearly xv years later.
