The Hills Run Red (2009)

Tyler (Tad Hilgenbrink – Lost Boys The Tribe) is a film student who wants to find out the true story of the lost horror movie The Hills Run Red and it’s missing director, Wilson Wyler Concannon (William Sadler – Die Hard 2, Bordello Of Blood)). Tyler finds the daughter of the director, Alexa (Sophie Monk - Date Movie, Popstars), who is now a stripper. The film student, the stripper, the best friend (Alex Wyndham), and the hotter than Sophie Monk girlfriend (Janet Montgomery) go in search of the director. They find more than they bargain for when the killer from the movie turns out to be real.

I’m sure the film is meant to be clever and insightful and play with the formula for horror/splatter films, as is the norm these days, but The Hills Run Red is just as cliched and predictable as the films it references. It comes complete with an obvious surprise ending (or two). Sophie Monk takes her top off a lot which may provide some consolation to viewers.
