| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...a refreshingly brutal and thoroughly entertaining update of Wes Craven's 1977 cult classic. |

| CHUDDevin Faraci[Aja is]truly one of the new masters of horror, a stunning visionary force to be reckoned with. |

| Detroit Free PressTerry LawsonHills is the unadulterated stuff, no cut, no chaser. |
| Seattle TimesTed Fry... a brilliantly reimagined version of Wes Craven's 1977 micro-budget horror classic ... |
