The Hills Have Eyes

---

Goddamn bunch of cutthroats.

Oh sh*t!

They'd keep me bellyup out here if

they knew I was getting ready to run.

Don't you make a noise

when you walk?

Hey wait a minute.

You got yourself all done up Ruby!

What are you up to?

- Here...

Oh no you don't. Ain't no trading

today Ruby. And not no more neither.

You folks have gone too far.

Trooper been snooping around.

Air Force been through here twice

You folks should go rob an Air Force

PX for god's sakes...

I'm hungry. No one comes through

back there anymore.

What'd you get?

Whisky and radios.

I ain't got nothing to eat.

I'm sorry Ruby,

I know you're starving.

But I got nothing else to trade.

I got no more gas, no more

cartridges, no more food.

And the folks in Corrin Creek

have cut me off already.

And there's even talk of blocking

off this whole section and marching

the national guard through

to see what they can find.

You coyotes better watch your P's

and Q's for a spell.

Take me with you.

What? So that's it.

You wanna get out.

Do you think you could pass out

there with the regular folks?

Why, you don't know a knife

and fork from your five fingers.

And you stink like a horse.

You're getting out. Take me too!

Does the pack know you're doing

this? Does Jupiter know?

Why, he'd cut you to pieces if I

told him you were going over the hill.

If my Pa' knew you was getting out.

He'd rip your lungs out.

Hello! Is there anybody around?

Get in here.

That'd be the State Troopers.

They'd toss you in jail and toss

the key on the wild side of old ...

I'll take a look around.

I don't see anyone...

I didn't hear you.

I was just cleaning up.

Well, fill it up and check the oil

and water.

I'll give you what I got. I ain't

got much. I'm just closing down.

Mornin.

Gees!

Don't you mind them. They just

wanna play. Beauty, get down!

Get down now! That's a good girl

I'm telling you,

we're in the middle of nowhere.

Yeah, I wonder how far

it is to the nearest cheese burger?

We don't usually get folk up this

way. Where're you heading?

California. L.A. Movie stars and

fancy cars.

California! You're sure off the

beaten track for that.

Yeah, well we're just making a stop

'round here for some....

You know this place out there in the

desert?

Why?

Hey mister. You got a bathroom

around here?

Yeah, 'round in back. 'Round in

back.

You need to make a litter dump. You

got a place to throw some trash?

Oh, hell! Use the whole damn desert

for all I care.

Oh, I'm sorry Bob.

You have your key? Good.

How are my two baby girls doing?

Fabulous.

Hey little piggy.

So anyway we thought we'd take a

little detour and go see it.

It's supposed to be a real silver

mine.

Well anyway, that's why I was asking.

You see, it's my Aunt Mildred's gift

to Bob and me.

On our silver anniversary,

and that's tomorrow.

Lady there ain't no silver left back

in there.

Besides, the Air Force uses part of

this as a gunnery range.

You folks just forget about that

foolishness and go on to California.

That'll be six eighty.

- Ok.

I got no change.

- Well, that figured.

Detective, huh?

- That's right

Bob just retired from

the Police Force.

He had to a little early,

because of his heart.

Refer us to Dry Creek Road.

You know where that is?

Look Mister, don't take your family

back in there.

The silver's been gone 40 years now.

Besides, there's nothing in there

but animals.

Animals! You mean nobody lives back

there?

Nobody you'd want to meet lady,

believe me...

See, there's nothing back here.

Jees, look at this place.

What's the matter? You see

something? Ughh. What?

Not me. I didn't do anything wrong.

I was trying to trade.

He was goin' away...

Big mouth.

Come here! Come here!

Hold it! Come here!

Come on Doug! Come on! He must

have some animals back there.

Come on! Come on!

Come on!

You better check your grandchildren

back there mister.

I think one of them's cut himself

on the window back there.

I'll check it. Thanks.

That's Ok.

You folks go right to California

and have a good trip.

You folks stay on the main road now,

you hear?

Stay on the main road!

Let's get out of here!

What ...!

Oh, Lord ...

There'll be hell to pay now.

Jupiter? Pappa?

Identified...

Mamma? Pluto do you see

that station wagon and its trailer?

That's what Mercury said.

If you can believe him.

They're coming

We're lost. The old creep told you

not to get off the road.

Well, the old bastard probably snuck

up there and ripped off our mine.

And that's why he doesn't want us

up here

We'll be French fries,

human French fries!

We are not going to be French fries.

We're right here someplace

on this little blue road.

Mother, this road is not a blue line.

It's a dotted line if it's on the map

at all.

Jees...

Nellis Air Force Base and Nuclear

Testing Site, close to the public...

Holy sh*t Daddy!

All right, everybody shut up!

That's it!

Man alive!

We're not on a bomb range and

we're not Goddamn lost!

And we are not ...

Jesus Christ in a crunch!

What was that?

Daddy! Slow down a bit, will you?

Daddy we're going to lose

the trailer

You and your stupid

silver mine.

Doug are you OK?

Open the door.

I think the door is jammed.

Why don't you try unlocking it creep.

Oh, I got it...

Are you OK?

Whew! I feel like I've been through

my first California earthquake.

How's the baby?

She's fine. Mum's got her.

Well, I think we were lucky.

My finch is OK?

Aren't you even going to ask how I

am?

Oh, get out of my life Bobby.

Look, I'm wounded...

What is it?

Let's catch it folks

You'r going to get...

- OK, look out...

What are you doing stupid?

For 25 years I'm a cop in the worst

damn precinct in Cleveland.

N*ggers shoot arrows at me and ...

the hillbillies throw dogs

off the roof at me.

I'm even shot at on two separate

occasions by my own men.

But none of these bastards ever come

as close to killing me as my own

Goddamn wife and her Goddamn road

maps, and her wrong turns, ...

and her Goddamn hysterical

screaming, and her....

Watch your language!

And you watch your heart too ...

You know what Dr. Springer said...

Well Dr. Springer can take his

stethoscope and shove it...

...into his little black bag.

Sorry babe ...

It's a turkey buzzard.

It's the janitor of the desert.

Does that mean there's a town

nearby?

Like when sailors spot a bird at sea

and know they're near land?

Yeah.

No.

It's pretty ... Pretty girl ...

Blew the hitch right off the back.

What's the verdict big fella?

Well, the damn axle's snapped...

Oh, no...

Forget it, forget it.

What do we do now?

We walk baby.

Do you know that Marlin Perkins says

that rattlesnakes can reach lengths

of 20 feet.

And can kill you in 8 minutes.

Then you better not

shoot till you see the whites

... of their fangs son.

Or was it 8 feet and 20 minutes...

- Oh, Ma.

Thank goodness the boys at

the precinct presented me with this

howlitzer when I retired.

Sure wouldn't want to go looking for
