Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I had skipped over this one plenty of times throughout the years and suddenly just decided to watch it, and I'm glad I did. The tension and chemistry between the main couple kept me glued to the screen, especially whenever their tiny baby is in danger. It was never cheesy, which can be a rare quality in indie horror movies. The atmosphere is what kept me feeling tense throughout this movie, not necessarily a specific monster, and that was the brilliant part. I felt like I was experiencing the horror with them, not just watching it happen to them.

The hallow is a fairly typical horror movie, family stays in a secluded house surrounded by a forest and strange things start to happen. Despite this however it is still an enjoyable film to watch and the monsters are somewhat original. The atmosphere of the film is tense and is mildly scary for those of us horror fanatics. The acting was decent although at some stages the script leaves a little something to be desired. The make up and special effects teams are both to be applauded, great effects. There wasn't any real character development besides seeing how the characters react to the situations thrown at them. I did feel that the film was slightly dragged out and could've done with a few unimportant scenes being edited out. Overall though its a good one watch film.

This was not to bad it did lack in some areas but the movie had a good feel to it.Good acting beautifully shot and not bad jump scares. I think it was filmed in Ireland as it was very green but that made it look cool.I feel it could have been better but it was not awful. I did like the scene in the car with the baby that was tense and fearful.Not big names in this but they did OK with the material.Worth a watch on a rainy afternoon with a coffee.I would tell my mates to give it a watch if they had 85 minutes to spare.The ending was a good idea though! Better than most crap that is out there though!The main actors did what they were suppose to do with the limited story.At the end of the day an OK horror to give a go. Reminds me of Antichrist in areas.

Greetings from Lithuania."The Hallow" (2015) is not bad horror genre flick. It has OK acting for this material, although they could have used that "Game Of Thrones" actor more, he is barely on screen. Special effects were pretty descent, given the budget. Story isn't fresh or original nor very intriguing, but as genre movie, it has OK story. Script was also nice, although as usually there are some dull moments.Overall, "The Hallow" is pretty bloody and sometimes disturbing. It is not bad flick, for one rainy boring evening it will do it's job, just don't expect much and it will do it's job.
