I haven't seen all these excerpt for "Requiem for a dream" and "Hills have eyes" and i doubt that i want to watch them, after all the gory details in their reviews below , and they appear as they are depicted at the website of the good folks at
IGN.com...please feel free to puke on your keyboard as you read through the reviews...
1. The Hills Have Eyes (2006)
Alexandre Aja's remake of the Wes Craven thriller The Hills Have Eyes both maintained and modernized the raw, gritty feel of the original, telling the same story of a family of terrorized travelers with unrelenting intensity and gore. There's certainly no lack of blood and guts to be found early on in the film, though it isn't the movie's gore factor that makes it so effectively disturbing. Rather, the assault on the camper about half-way through the film will undoubtedly test your horror-film resiliency. A gun is held to the head of a newborn while one of the attackers – a mutated redneck hill-dweller – suckles at the mother's breast. Meanwhile, a second attacker rapes the younger sister just inches away from the corpse of the gut-shot grandmother. All of which concludes with the brains of the new mother blown across the walls while the father, tied to a tree outside, screams and cries as flames engulf his body. It's a gut-wrenching, harrowing scene filmed with unflinching honesty, and never sentimentalized by director Aja. In many ways, it pulls fewer punches than Craven's original, which seems almost tame in comparison.
