Hills is not for the faint of heart. I haven't seen the original, only the remake, and I actually like it a lot. It's very scary for a "backwoods cannibals" movie, and the whole nuclear test site/refusal-to-leave-one's-home explanation is nice (there's a pretty lulzy moment when Doug, who's teased at first about being a weak-spined bespectacled liberal, stabs a cannibal with an American flag). The survivors, especially Doug, really evolve. I think it did end up having an impact on my action scenes. It's not something I would recommend to everyone, but I do defend it from the "torture porn" label. The sequel is completely horrible and plotless dreck, on the other hand. Sorry, tangent.
Faun's an awesome band, I have several of their albums. "2 Falken" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5N8duF-pPM) is the first song I heard by them.
