Review of film-horror "The Hill and the Hole" (2019)

in #review4 years ago

Welcome, dear readers!

The world premiere of the film "The Hill and the Hole", created by American filmmakers in the genre of horror, fantasy and science fiction, took place on February 15, 2019. This film did not appear at the Russian box office, but it can be found on the Internet on sites that provide online movie viewing services. Although, looking ahead, I want to say that it is good that we will not see it in cinemas.

I, as a fan of science fiction, could not pass by the advertising of this film, hoping to enjoy watching it. But how cruelly I was mistaken about that!

To be honest, I was already stressed by the first shots of the film: an endless deserted strip of smooth highways stretching into the distance. Such scenes abound in horror movies, it is impossible to surprise them! Yes, in this case, there was no special connection to the plot.

Well, then, the focus is on the archaeologist Tom Digby from the Bureau of land management, sent to the backwoods to double-check data on a certain hill located on the border of the County.

Within an hour and a half the filmmakers: directed by bill Darmon and Christopher Ernst chaotic and incoherent trying to explain what was going on on the screen with disgusting special effects, the series of unexplained and unrelated events. The cast, which includes Liam Kelly, Adam Gorlaitli, Kristen Brody, Brandt Adams, and Ricardo Burgos, doesn't help them much either. All of them play hesitantly and unconvincingly.

I did not see any science fiction, fantasy, or horror here, and therefore I will not recommend this film for viewing.

Thank you for your attention, see you soon!

Sincerely yours, @mrfantastis.
