The Hills Have Eyes (Craven, 1977)
Wes Craven is just a plain bad filmmaker. His supposed "horror classic", The Hills Have Eyes, is really more of an action film, and one that fails to maintain any level of suspense at that. Paling in comparison to nearly every other 70s horror flick I have seen, it is pedestrian in its characterization and effect. In fact only the overvalued Craven name has kept this from being a forgotten curio.
