The Hills Have Eyes
`77
August 4 - 24, 2017
Caked in low-budget grime, Wes Craven’s ultra-perverse, grindhouse scuzz-shocker pits an all-American family against a band of mutant cannibals.
A family’s road trip through the Nevada desert quickly goes south when their camper breaks down in the middle of nowhere, turning them into sitting ducks for a band of mutant cannibals with a taste for baby.
