The Hills Have Eyes Part II is the 1985 sequel to the 1977 horror classic, The Hills Have Eyes. A group of young and wild motocross racers venture through the desert and is stranded at an old mining ranch. They soon realize that they are being watched by a group of savage cannibals unknown to the civilized world. The film is full of flashbacks to the original film; even the dog has a flashback. Ruby/Rachel (Janus Blythe), Bobby (Robert Houston), and Pluto (Michael Berryman) return from the original.
[edit] Reaction
The film sequel did poorly at the box office. Wes Craven claims that he did this film because he was in need of money and since then, has disowned it and its followup, Mind Ripper, also known as The Hills Have Eyes III.[citation needed]
The film is infamous for a scene that involves the dog, Beast, who survived the original The Hills Have Eyes, having a flashback. This scene, as well as the film's over-the-top nature, has resulted in the movie becoming a camp classic amongst horror fans.[citation needed]
