Hills Have Eyes Page #2

Synopsis: While celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary, a couple are caravanning through the desert with their 3 children, son in law and their baby granddaughter. While the rest of the family agrees there are plenty of better and more appropriate things to do to celebrate an anniversary, they make do with what they have, but things take a turn after a sketchy gas station attendant informs them about a "short cut" that will take them in between a series of hills in the desert. It doesn't take too long before they realise they're not alone and the hills indeed do have eyes.

it's not on the map,

but if you...

take a left at the dirt road,

couple miles from here...

- Uh-huh.

- It'll lead you through the hills.

Probably save you

a couple of hours.

Can't miss it.

Uh, there's an old fence right in front.

Well, thank you.

Thank you very much.

Old fence, dirt road,

two miles.

Mm-hmm.

You have a safe trip.

Thank you.

##[Bob Singing]

[Brenda]

Dad, I hate your singing.

##[Bob, Mom Singing]

[Lynn]

Guys, no.

- Stop!

- [Bob] Imagine the first people

to cross this desert.

They didn't know

where they were.

- [Brenda] Yeah, I can, because neither do we.

- Brenda, the road is here.

It exists.

It's got to go somewhere.

Besides, look how beautiful it is.

Look at the light on the rocks.

It's gorgeous.

- This is so f***ed!

- [Mom] Excuse me?

- Watch your language, young lady.

- [Bob Laughing]

I would like

a little backup here.

- This is such bullshit.

- Hey, watch your f***ing mouth!

Can we just calm down here?

We're all a little tired, okay?

Yeah, Mom. Didn't you grow up in the '60s?

Why are you so uptight?

Your mom didn't

used to be uptight.

- She was a little hippie chick.

- No.

You should have seen her when she was

your age. She was a little hottie.

- Dad.

- Stop that.

[Doug] Driving through the New Mexico desert

in the middle of summer...

with a broken air conditioner.

Great vacation.

[Bobby] I'm glad you came because

I would have been so f***ing bored otherwise.

- ##[Stereo:
Hard Rock]

- Yeah. So bored.

[Hinges Squeaking]

Oh. Give up on that, man.

I tried for an hour and a half.

Thing's ancient.

Wiring's medieval.

Needs to be replaced.

- There.

- [Air Conditioner Humming]

There.

It's just the, uh, thermostat.

It's disconnected.

Anyway, at least

we can breathe now.

Hey, I thought you quit smoking.

- Does my sister know?

- Hey, man.

- F*** your sister.

- [Chuckles]

You know, uh, Big Bob'd

get pretty pissed off...

if he found out you were smoking

in his newly renovated '88 Airstream.

- Yeah?

- Mm-hmm.

Well, f*** Big Bob too.

Here. Want one?

Go ahead.

Uh-uh.

Your sister would cut my nuts off

if you start smoking.

I think she did that

a long time ago.

- I think you're right.

- [Chuckles]

I think we're somewhere

on this blue road.

[Lynn] Mom, we're not on the blue road

or any other road.

The guy said it wasn't

on the map, remember?

- [Lynn Screams]

- [Mom] Oh, my God!

Jesus! Hang on!

Watch the baby!

[Man Growls]

Honey? Where's the baby?

- She's right here.

- Is she okay?

- She's fine. She's fine.

- What the hell happened?

- The heat must have caused a blowout.

- Are you okay?

- Yes, I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm just a little scared.
