The Lucky Ones Die First

A cross-country road trip takes a deadly twist in this chilling remake of Wes Craven's classic horror masterpiece from the '70s!

Driving through New Mexico en route to California, the Carter family becomes stranded in a desolate government atomic zone. But as day turns to nightmare, the travelers soon realize they've got more than car trouble...they've got company. A freakish clan of bloodthirsty mutants inhabit the desert landscape, and they've just found their next meal.

Packed with gut-wrenching gore, shocking makeup effects and heart-stopping terror, The Hills Have Eyes will keep you on the edge of your seat - and your sanity!...
