Anyone Can Die | |
| The Hills Have Eyes (2006) / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: The promotional comic for the film plays this trope shockingly straight when Doug, the undisputed walking badass Papa Wolf of a man, and his baby both bite the dust. This was most likely done in order to demonstrate how much the new family does not fuck around. See below for further complaining on the subject and Canon Discontinuity for peace of mind. | |

Whoosh in Front of the Camera: One of the mutants does this when Doug enters the mine; passing between Doug and the camera. Doug turns around but does not see anything and continues through the mine. | |

Bloodier and Gorier: The original film was ruthless, but used gore sparingly. However, the remake is far more violent and brutal, with far more blood spraying and onscreen mutilation. | |

I'm a Humanitarian: Now, it wouldn't be a wholly accurate remake if the mutants weren't cannibals, would it? Strangely, though, most of the cannibalism is absent, and is only shown when Jupiter eats Ethel's heart. | |

Dropped a Bridge on Him | |
| The Hills Have Eyes (2006) / int_43a045de | comment |
Dropped a Bridge on Him: Doug (and his baby, for that matter) in the comic tie-in/prequel. Not perfectly fitting of this trope, but they may as well have killed him off in the opening panels. It's made all the more frustrating to witness when considering the fact that the last time we saw him, he was practically a death machine who could probably vaporize all of them by simply dropping his pants. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
| The Hills Have Eyes (2006) / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: Oddly, the film is a case of both this and Adaptation Expansion. While it adds an extended sequence in a nuclear testing town and adds considerable depth to the characters of the Carter family, it also greatly dials back and Flanderizes the mutant characters, who barely have any dialogue, and are portrayed almost entirely as soulless monsters, besides Ruby. Also, it reduces the role of Fred, the gas-station man. | |

| The Hills Have Eyes (2006) / int_957e5fc2 | comment |
Villainous Breakdown: Pluto suffers this when Lizard stops him from raping Brenda. Big Brain suffers a more subtle one after the death of Pluto, and orders Lizard to kill Catherine. He recovers his composure for a few seconds... only to hear Beast's snarling. He dies. Badly. | |

Wouldn't Hurt a Child: Unlike the rest of his clan, Pluto shows no desire to bring harm to Catherine, instead just inquisitively hovering over her cradle and laughing innocently. It's strangely adorable. | |

Mutants: In the original film, the mutation of Papa Jupiter and his children is only subtly hinted to be the result of fallout (though casting Michael Berryman as Pluto is a rather... strong hint); in the remake, it's outright stated. | |

| The Hills Have Eyes (2006) / int_abad35b4 | comment |
Soundtrack Dissonance: During the opening titles sequence, we hear Webb Piercer's More and More as we're shown footage of nuclear weapon testings that are intercut with sudden photos of grotesquely deformed babies and people. The pictures, accompanied by screeching noises each time they flash by, hammer the contrast between the romantic melody and the horrific imagery. | |

Oh, Crap!: Big Brain is seen shaking after Doug pretends to beg for his life, only to turn the tables, and handedly kills Pluto right in front of him. He also has a clear look of shock and terror on his face when he sees one of their victim's dogs, Beast, is in the same room as him and poised to begin mauling him. And none of his fellow mutants are around to save him, leaving him utterly helpless as Beast attacks him. | |

The Dog Bites Back: Literally, in this case. Doug's family had two German Shepards, Beauty and Beast. The mutants killed Beauty offscreen. Beast goes on to personally kill Goggle, and later Big Brain. The latter had, moments before, been smirking after ordering Lizard to kill the kidnapped baby out of spite. His death was neither graceful nor quick. | |
