      From what I've read, the original was intended to be PG but only made R because of the children in the body bag scene. There's little violence (except at the very end), little to no profanity, really no intense scenes (for me, at least), and a somewhat nude guy on the floor of a bathroom that shows barely anything. If the PG13 rating existed in 1979, it would have gotten that rating.

        Anyone who was scared by that movie would be scared of goosebumps. I love goosebumps though.

          I just watched the original like 3 minutes ago..and it sucked.
          2006 version hands down.

              What difference does it make? Age has nothing to do with it.

                Yep, because there are adults that think PG-13 horror is scary.

                  The new version is okay; All of the people who are ripping it to shreds should remember that the original is by no means a masterpiece. The first 20 min. like you said are great, and the last 10 are decent, but in between pretty much is wasteless filler.

                    I watched the remake last night and was very disappointed.
                    It was not anywhere near as scary. It wasn't a bad movie, but I felt I wasted my time and money seeing it.

                            Easy, 1979. 2006's version was horrible. After seeing that one, I said in the theatre "Well that sucked". Everyone was howling in laughter.

                              "the hills have eyes remake is bleep crap! omg i just saw it, and it was soooo boring. damn what a waste!"
                              I wish I could speak more authoritatively on this, not having seen the original, but it seems to me the new THHE at least stuck pretty close to the spirit of the original. Plus, in reference to a few posts ago, it definitely WASN'T a "pansy-ass PG-13 remake."

                                    I prefer the original by far, but the remake wasn't as bad as I was expecting. If I'd expected it to be good I'd have been disappointed but I thought it would be as terrible as The Amityville Horror remake so I was pleasantly surprised when it wasn't.

                                        This is hard because I love both films..
                                        WASC 1979 is more chilling so I will go with the 1979 movie..more scarier.

                                          There's no doubt in my mind that the original is better, the sequel to the original is even better. What a waste.
