Customer Reviews

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.

Average Horror Yarn
Clutching desperately at the coattails of Washington Irving's classic tale, "The Hollow" is a modest horror flick that will keep you entertained, either with humor (intentional and unintentional) or a few decent scares. I originally saw this flick on ABC Family about three years ago. It has recently popped up on Sci-Fi channel. It's a lot better than seventy-five percent of Sci-Fi channel's flicks, but does fit comfortably in that channel's Saturday movie lineup. It's cast has a little something for everybody. There's new stars for the younger crowd (Kevin Zegers, Kaley Cuoco), former 80's teen stars (Judge Reinhold), an old guy (Stacey Keach) and a former boy band superstar (Nick Carter).

The story is centered around the return of Ichabod Crane's bloodline (Zegers) to the village of Sleepy Hollow. When Halloween comes along, Zegers moves in on the high school football jock's girlfriend (Cuoco) and quickly makes an enemy out of said jock (Carter). Teenagers go missing, and despite warnings from the cemetary keeper (Keach), the village goes on with it's Halloween Hayride, giving a returning Headless Horseman easy pickings. Keach tries to convince Zegers that he's a descendant of Crane and that the Horseman has returned to finish a job he started many years ago. Initially Zegers denies the possibility of being related to Crane. As the story goes on, however, he begins to realize that he is Crane's descendant and only he can stop the Horseman from going on another killing spree. Heads roll, there are plenty of near-misses, and Carter, Keach and Reinhold really chew up the scenery for the rest of the movie.

When all is said and done, the viewer won't feel entirely cheated by this film. Yes, it has some very bad moments in it, but those moments are what makes this film fun. There are also a few legitimate scares throughout for the audience. You won't be afraid to go roaming down deserted country roads at night after seeing this movie, but you will have a pretty good time seeing just how silly and spooky this film can be. I'd consider it a rental, especially around Halloween, if you prefer your horror a little bit on the light side. If you can find it in the bargain bin and happen to be a fan of B-grade horror, this just might be a fun purchase.

Very good B-Horror flick
I liked this movie for the reason being that it was a different take on the "Sleepy Hollow" story. The story unfolded in a manner that it held your attention all the way through the movie. The acting was very solid in this B flick as well. I would recommend this movie to anyone that loves B-horror flicks!!!
