For Mum: Michael Bublé at Nottingham Ice Arena (12.2007)
I wrote this review in December 2007, and for some reason I never published it.

The Hills Have Eyes 2
I didn’t expect a great deal from THHE2, but it surprised me: it’s a huge achievement.
Massive. Seriously uber-humongous. Mere words alone cannot express how huge an achievement this film is. This film has the honour of being the most tension free, uninvolving, yawn-inducing horror film I’ve ever seen. It’s not even like the Black Christmas [...]
