The Hills Have Eyes Part II (1984)

Synopsis

The movie The Hills Have Eyes Part II (1984) continues the horror franchise with a new group encountering the mutated hill people several years after the original film.

A team of bikers and off-road racers get stranded in the New Mexico desert where the Carter family was previously attacked by mutants years earlier. The inbred hill people begin stalking them for food and sport.

The movie The Hills Have Eyes Part II (1984) follows the group getting picked off one by one as they try fending off the murderous mutants. Hulk, the surviving member of the original killers, continues his reign of terror against the stranded innocents.

The sadistic Pluto clan of hill people gruesomely kill several racers using traps and weapons. Bobby, one of the last survivors, finally crashes his motorcycle into the mutants’ cave, causing an explosion that destroys them.
