Hallow Road Ratings & Reviews
- Thassia Frota1. februar 2026Boring story..whole story is in the car..many things don't connect and is a very boring
- Clarence Boddicker27. januar 2026This movie is frustrating to watch - you know there's nothing going to happen till the end, but you just still wanna sit it out and confirm your fears....
- Desmond Karani26. januar 2026We more movies like these 💯... Money spent on good writing and actors than CGI. Awesome
- sotonin19. august 2025Awful waste of time. Literally the entire movie is a phone call while driving and no explanation in the end. Terrible and boring
- Kevin Ward1. juli 2025Loved this. A twisty, contained thriller that takes place almost entirely in a car with Rosamund Pike and Matthew Rhys trying desperately to get to their daughter who’s been in a car accident on Hallow Road. Pike and Rhys are so good and so believable and their performances are made up entirely of conversations on the phone with their daughter and in the car with each other. Definitely feel some of the Celtic/UK lore inspirations (missing children, mythic forests, etc.) Not the most interesting film visually, but I had an absolute blast with it. Highly recommend if you like contained thrillers.
- rama18130. august 2025Great movie, great actors. Psycological!!!
- sacredlink25. januar 2026Major Stinker
- BeeVee2329. december 2025This film is like an extended Inside Number 9 or Tales off the Unexpected - and I don't mean that in a derogatory fashion. I can just see its short running time playing out very nicely on a TV station with ads. It's nice and taut, no fat on its spare bones. Lastly, the credits might surprise you as they did me
- noite do espirito24. august 2025Intense creep vibes, superb acting and entrancing story. Loved it!
- Abbas Tanwir26. december 2025Shit movie but ill have what Alice is having
- Mike McElvain19. oktober 2025I would rather watch grass grow.
- UniqueMovies Deb H7. december 2025The suspense!! 😱 oh my God!! Watching the last 30 minutes or so of this movie is well worth watching the whole movie!!😱 Without blowing any of the plot you guys need to watch this movie. 😱 It's a must-see and worth the watch!! There's some supernatural ghostly things going on!! Pay attention and enjoy!! Happy Holidays 🎄🎁
- jackmeat3. november 2025My quick rating - 5.6/10. Hallow Road creeps in quietly, building tension through silence and suggestion rather than spectacle. Director Babak Anvari, known for turning everyday dread into existential unease, takes a minimalist approach here, delivering what feels like a cross between a psychological thriller, an audio play, and a parental nightmare. The setup is deceptively simple: in the dead of night, a married couple—Frank (Matthew Rhys) and Maddie (Rosamund Pike)—are jolted awake by a desperate phone call from their teenage daughter, Alice (voiced by Megan McDonnell). She’s taken her dad’s car without permission, crashed it on a desolate woodland road, and hit someone, or something, on the way. With no visuals of Alice and only her trembling voice to guide them, the film follows her parents as they drive the forty-odd miles to find her, the entire journey unfolding in real time. That’s both the film’s greatest strength and its biggest gamble. It’s a bold concept: essentially a two-person chamber piece on wheels, where every passing mile ramps up the psychological tension between the couple as much as it does the suspense about what awaits them at the crash site. Rhys and Pike carry the film effortlessly; their brittle chemistry and simmering resentment give the trip a claustrophobic emotional charge. They’re believable as two people long past affection but still bound by shared panic over their child. Without them, this whole experiment would stall in the first ten minutes. What keeps Hallow Road compelling is its suggestive horror—the kind that crawls under your skin, not through jump scares or monsters, but through what isn’t shown. The fear is entirely situational and psychological, the kind of horror any parent could imagine: helplessness, guilt, and the gnawing uncertainty of whether your child is safe, or sane. The real-time pacing adds authenticity but also tests patience. Some viewers will find the method hypnotic; others may just find it slow. And honestly, a bit of both reactions is valid. Where the film falters is in its lack of urgency. For parents racing to their child’s potential disaster, Frank and Maddie are oddly composed, almost too composed. There are stretches where their conversation feels like a Sunday drive rather than a frantic rescue. It undercuts the realism, even if Anvari’s deliberate tempo is meant to keep tension simmering rather than boiling. Still, the movie lingers. Like his earlier work Wounds, Anvari again leaves audiences with an ambiguous ending, one that invites multiple interpretations rather than delivering a cathartic conclusion. It’s more satisfying this time around, though still a touch frustrating if you prefer firm answers. Ultimately, Hallow Road is an unnerving, well-acted experiment in slow-burn suspense. Its realism and emotional depth keep it entertaining, even when the pacing drifts. It’s a film that unsettles through what it implies, not what it shows. While that may not thrill everyone, it’s undeniably powerful in its quietest moments.
- Josh C22. august 2025Should be called “Watching Paint Dry”. Very slow and very very boring. Was hoping for so much more and it just ended up being very flat and uneventful.
- Zokkiie23. august 2025It is fine, just not great. It nails the spooky atmosphere and the acting’s solid, but the story doesn’t really surprise. Decent for a late-night watch, but nothing that sticks with you.
