You Might Say I'm a Little Excited for this One

Horror remakes are all the rage these days, and with the surprisingly high quality of these retreads, it seems like everything that is old can be new again. More on that later though. For now, enjoy this pretty sweet trailer which I saw running in front of Black Christmas (itself a remake) this weekend. It's actually more of a teaser, but who am I to split hairs.

The clip is for the upcoming Hills Have Eyes 2 (3/2/07). It's that rare remake sequel, otherwise known as a requel, and it looks like it's also the feature writing debut of Craven the Second, Jonathan.

By all appearances, the new film doesn't look to share any similarities with the original sequel, instead opting for the time tested generic standby of military vs. monsters. Bringing in the big guns is always a great way to kick the violence up a notch (see: Day of the Dead, ROTLD 3, among others). Anyway, enjoy!
