The family consists of "Big" Bob, his wife Ethel, and their children, Brenda, Bobby and Lynne. There is also Lynne's husband Doug and his and Lynne's daughter, Baby Catherine. In the original 1977 version of The Hills Have Eyes, the Carters are travelling through the desert to find and claim a silver mine that Bob had inherited; disregarding the warnings of a gas station attendant named Fred, the family deviate from the main road in the desert and have an automobile accident, becoming stranded. In the sequel, The Hills Have Eyes Part II, the only family member featured with any prominence is Doug, with Bobby having a minor role and the rest the family members only appearing in flashbacks. In The Hills Have Eyes remake, the Carter family are travelling to San Diego, California for the Silver Anniversary of Bob and Ethel from Cleveland, Ohio. The Carters, while travelling, reach the Gas Haven and are told by the attendant, Jeb Jr., to use a "shortcut" through the desert to their destination. Travelling through the desert, the Carters find themselves stranded when the tires of their truck are slashed and they are harassed by a clan of cannibalistic, mutated savages.
