How did this show wind up on MTV? I’ve had a long history with MTV, they’ve been very good to me, and I’ve been in business with them for years and years now. I was looking at their programming, with "Laguna Beach" and "The Hills," and it just seemed ...

Or that "reunion" with Heidi and Lauren. Lauren almost looked like someone who JUST COULDN'T FAKE IT ANYMORE. Heidi gamely played along, asking if she "works out." None of this matters. Nor does "The Hills." Whitney was smart to move on to "The City." I can hardly wait for that episode on Manolo Bl...

DVD Review: The Hills Have Eyes 2
Original at Blogcritics
• Thu, Jul 12
By Chris Beaumont The Hills Have Eyes II is being released in an unrated form, which runs about a minute longer than the theatrical cut. The only change that I detected was a little more gore, nothing in the way of character development (ha) or plot (haha). Still, nothing wrong with a bit more guts.

By Casey Criswell While I'm not normally a fan of remakes, there was still some good stuff in the first Hills do-over. It had some good gore, was intense, pretty damn violent and overall, an enjoyable horror flick. (Plus it had Claire) Naturally, I went into The Hills Have Eyes II with hopes of a similar fare. Unf...
