The Hollow Plot
19 May 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Remember those painting kits where you filled in the colors by the numbers? This is the film equivalent. All the stock conventions are used, there's not an ounce of originality in the whole movie. No surprises,no shocks, from the very beginning it follows its predictable course until the very last moment when we get the usual cheap horror film trope of the 'shock' ending.

The story is the age-old myth of the changeling. Children are vanishing into the woods and being replaced by the creatures that dwell there, goblins, fairy-folk, Hollow Ones, call them what you will.

The actors do their best with the material but it's beyond help, lazy writing and bad directing. The final shot is laughable. (I'd have given the film a 4 but for the idiotic ending. Avoid if you value your time.
