The Hallow (2015)
7/10
Little bit of whiplash but overall nice

This creature feature is quite full of jumps and is an interesting premise. Without giving too much away, I agree with the other reviews - starts out pretty quick, boils over, then leaves the pot dry... You find yourself rooting for the actors and hoping that everything works out for them throughout the movie. There is a building of the character that really helps keep it moving. If you like creature features and some good campfire storytelling, you will enjoy this movie. There's not a huge budget but the team used what they did have very well. My biggest complaint is that there are a few moments towards the end that could have been shot better and a little less predictable. The end gets a little too "out there" for me to give it more stars but I was very satisfied. The acting is excellent and the scenery is right on target. The creatures are a bit pixellated but still, this is a great movie to watch at night with all the lights off and a fire or some candles going.
