Hollow Creek (2016)
5/10
Predictable Lifetime Cheesy Horror
11 December 2023
There is no explanation why this very poorly written screenplay deserves two hours of screen time. The fact that Burt Reynolds is in the movie does nothing for me either way. It shouldn't be the reason anyone should decide to watch the movie.

This movie doesn't need specific critiquing. My caption spoke volumes. The movie could have gone somewhere with an able support cast. I do believe the positive reviews were written by people related to the movie.

When the villain was revealed, it rapidly turned into a comedy. The acting of supposed hillbillies was so poor, they couldn't be taken seriously. The fact that those two were abducting children made the movie only more unbearable. I don't see how anyone could see them in a role, other than not talking. The keystone cops were just as stereotypical and hardly felt like true law enforcement. They were no-name actors dressed as policemen.

This movie could've been produced far better. There is a little to no character development. You couldn't even have any sympathy for the lead actor. He was your typical married man who cheats on his wife with someone from work. The chemistry between them was promising at the beginning, The attempts to make him appear sympathetic or genuine, fell short.

I would suggest South Korean movies. Start with,The Wailing.
