The Hollow

As expected
I was overjoyed to find this on Amazon. Its my favorite version of the Sleepy Hollow story; and the fact that Nick Carter is in it makes it even more enjoyable. Thanks for having it

Great for what it is
I am a horror buff, write horror novels and moderate a horror website and have to tell you that I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.I read the bad reviews on here but happened to catch The Hollow on one of the cable movie channels and watched it. The movie was a tad scary but mostly it was just a fun, enjoyable movie to watch. As a matter of fact I was going to buy it to add to my DVD collection when I saw that it was already available for watching on Prime.The critics of the film apparently are expecting their films to all be instant classics or Oscar worth films but some of the best horror films aren't. This one is an obvious continuation of the Sleep Hollow tale and reminded me a little of Ginger Snaps in its appearance, although admittedly Ginger Snaps was better.Watch the movie and enjoy it for what it is, a fun, slightly gory Halloween tale.

Great pick for Halloween week! A young Kaley Cuoco shines
Okay, this was not the greatest movie in the world, BUT, it would be a perfect for something like "Halloween week" ...it belongs in the same category as the likes of Pumpkin head, or Killer tomatoes, or Mars Attacks. It was gory and fast paced. And actually a good retelling of the Sleepy Hollow story. The headless horseman was pretty cool. The eerie light shining from the leering eyes of the Jack-o-lantern was convincing...But the best thing was that two heavy hitters played in this; Stacey Keetch ...and my favorite gal on television, Kaley Cuoco! (Penny from the big bang series) yay! She was really young in this one. KEVIN ZEGERS picked a budding new star and even then, her talent was apparent. Great vid. Better than the B movie it was supposed to be.

Not Bad for the Money
Once again we have a movie filmed in California that tries to pass it self off as taking place in rural upstate New York. Like all such movies it fails in that respect. Having said that though, it's not the most egregious failing in this flick.......Trying to pass Nick Carter off as a high school quarterback is the biggest laugh you'll have in this movie, along with the dorky guy who was Eddie Murphy's partner, "Billy" in Beverly Hill's Cop a vey close second, who plays but fails as the tough as nail's high school football coach. No wonder Nick Carter is the quarterback!!!!!Anyway, Stacy Keach is in it and makes a fair attempt at doing his job and I bet he really needs the paycheck these days too.There really is not much in the way of gore compared to Friday the 13th or Halloween and the nudity is sadly lacking, but I really thought all in all it wasn't a bad flick for the money. I have a feeling in 10 or 15 years time, people will be laughing and enjoying the campiness of The Hollow, the same way people of my age group laughed at some of the lesser quality slasher movies of the 80's.

So great!
I remember when this originally aired on TV. I was 18 years old, and have always loved cheesy horror movies. I watched this that night and LOVED it ever since. Its so corny and bad acting but I love that about some movies. I love the thought of haunted hayrides on a chilly October night telling ghost stories. Love the Halloween themed barn and decorations...love the shots when they are in school, library, outside......I just LOVE this movie.

The Hollow
Here is an excellent new approach to the New England Tale of the Headless Horseman resuscitated because of the genetic connection betweena Teenage boy as a relative of Ichabod Crane. This is great viewing for a family movie. Also the cast of actors both young and old is outstanding.Kevin Segers, Kaley Cuoco, Nick Carter, Lisa Chess, Nicholas Turturro, Joey Mazzello and others in this film have an acting history over their youthful years. As they move towards adulthood, the positive talents and personnas possessed by them have graduated superbly. What balancedthis story was the involvement of famous adult actors Stacy Keach and Judge Reinhold. A superb fantasy for a DVD collection as well as a conclave of actors likened to a reunion to result in this superb movie.

Not Bad
Ppl are reviewing this movie as if it were a major motion picture. This was intended and is just a campy little film. Yes the acting is bad and the story silly but so what it's fun. All of the acting is really bad including the vetern actors such as Stacy Keach, Judge Reinhold, Eileen Brennan and Joe Mazzello. I think the over acting and campy acting was intentional making it quite the fun little movie. Nick Carter didn't do bad at all considering this was his first movie actually he did about as good as the other young actors in the movie. Keep your perspective about you and realize you are watching a silly little movie grab some popcorn and enjoy it.

I highly recommend this movie, especially at Halloween
First of all this is a favorite movie of mine to watch every Halloween, it isn't Citizen Kane but its still an extremely entertaining viewing experience. In fact I like it so much that even though I own the US NTSC release which is also called The Hollow, I decided to check out this version and it's a huge improvement.On my 55" HDTV the US version shows up as 4:3 with the appropriate black bars along the sides. This UK PAL version appears in full screen and looks great.And yes, they did crop a very minor amount off the screen at the top and bottom. I played both versions together, with the NTSC on my laptop, so I could watch both at the same time, and I stopped at various scenes. There was barely anything missing, definitely nothing of any importance. In the one scene where Kaley Cuoco is in the hallway with her cheerleader friend, believe me, I studied them, I mean the screen, very closely. :o) Aside from one small slit in a vent behind them everything was all there.Regardless, I consider this version my new favorite and I plan to watch it instead of the old version every Halloween.Oh and as far as Nick Carter is concerned, he does a pretty good job here. I've never seen him in anything else before or after this movie. but here he did a fine job. Oh, and in the end credits one of his songs plays. As far as I know it's the only song of his I've ever heard, and it was more of a rocker, not a pop song as I would have expected.I highly recommend this movie, it's a perfect example of mindless well produced entertainment at its best. Sit back, grab a favorite drink and some popcorn, turn down the lights, and enjoy!

For Nick Carter fans only!
If you like being able to anticipate every line, and pretty much everything else that is going to happen in a film, then this one is for you! LolA couple of bits actually made me laugh out loud at the script and acting, so as a comedy, its quite good....for horror though, bit wide of the mark!If you're a Backsreet Boys or Nick Carter fan, then check it out as his acting is ok, but not great, but he's in the whole film so you'll be happy there. If you're not a fan of him, then i would say give it a miss, as, as sequels go, it pretty much blew! :)
