The
"Hills Run Red" is a movie that is committed to the message
its villain believes in. No sub textual bull…just give them the
flipping kill. With some patience from the audience, this new take on
the killer in the woods genre delivers to the gore starved with enough
intelligence that it will not waste the casual moviegoer's time.
Tyler (Tad Hilgenbrink
from "The Lost Boys 2") is obsessed with the concept that
there was a movie that was so shocking that all of its prints were pulled
from theaters to never be seen again. This movie is the late director
Concannon's (William Sadler from "Die Hard 2" and "Bill
and Ted's Bogus Journey") only film, "The Hills Run Red".
Desperate to see this film, he has tracked down the director's daughter
Alexa. In exchange for dragging her away from stripping and her heroin
addiction, she has agreed to take Tyler, his best friend, and his girlfriend
to where the film was shot.
Of course when
anyone goes out to the woods in the name of horror, there are crazed
rednecks and a legendary killer to torment and hunt them down leaving
us wondering who or what will survive. Will it be a protagonist, a killer,
or the documentary footage, or could something even more twisted be
all that remains where the hills run red?
