Two films by Wes Craven, then two remakes, and nothing crosses between them.
Pick a continuity. There are two and they share nothing, so there is no reason to watch all four in a row unless you want to.
Seen some of these already? Tap the circles to tick them off. The full list below fills in as you go.
Wes Craven's original. Rough, cheap, and still the most uncomfortable film in the series. It is the head of the older of the two continuities.
The only true sequel, with returning cast. Go in knowing it pads itself with clips from the first film, including one flashback from the point of view of a dog, and that Craven wanted nothing to do with it afterwards.
Start here instead if you want the modern version. It remakes the 1977 film from scratch and needs nothing before it, and it is the better made of the two openings.
Then what? The Hills Have Eyes 2 from 2007 follows the remake and only the remake. A television film called Mind Ripper from 1995 is sold in some places as The Hills Have Eyes III: it was written as a third film, then rewritten to remove every reference, and it has no characters or story in common with any of these. It is not listed here because it is not one of them.
A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.
Everything you tick is saved in this browser and nowhere else. An account is the only way to put your list on another device, and the only way to get it back if this browser clears its storage. It is free and it takes an email address and a password.
Sign in on your phone, your laptop, anything, and the same list is there, kept in step as you tick. Nothing to copy, nothing to remember.
All three are about this franchise and all three are for showing, not moving. The link and the picture open SagaList with that progress displayed next to whatever the person opening it has already ticked. The code is what a friend pastes into Compare below. None of them writes anything into anybody's list.
Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
Removes everything ticked here, in this browser. If you are signed in it clears on your other devices too. If you are not, there is no other copy and this cannot be undone.
Your email is confirmed and your account is ready. Everything you tick is saved on this device, as it always was.

Nothing else happens until you follow the link. If it has not arrived in a few minutes, look in your spam folder and search for SagaList. It is sent from a no-reply address on our own domain, so there is nothing to reply to.
Both addresses get an email: the new one to confirm it, and the old one so that nobody can move your account without you knowing. Nothing changes until you follow the link.
Signing out leaves everything you have ticked on this device exactly where it is. It only stops it syncing.
This removes your account, your email address, and the progress stored on our side. It cannot be undone and we cannot get it back for you.
Nothing is charged and nothing is cancelled, because SagaList does not take payments. What goes is your account, your email address and the progress synced to our side. What stays is everything ticked in the browser on this device.
