Critics Consensus

Minimalist in presentation while getting great mileage out of Rosamund Pike and Matthew Rhys' superb performances, Hallow Road is a nerve-wracking thriller that takes audiences down a haunting path.

We're get mystical and magical, and that's when it goes off the road.

The Travers Take

3/4

Two people talking in a car. Hardly the stuff of white-knuckle drama, right? It is when you hitch two phenomenal actors, Rosamund Pike and Matthew Rhys, to a suspenseful script and tightly coiled direction by Babak Anvari, and then let them rip.

1.5/4

At the same time, however, none of the stuff that has to be protected for the sake of the audience’s viewing pleasure is actually worth protecting.

4/5

There are surprises throughout and an unexpected twist toward the end, which will keep viewers on their toes, but the final few minutes may lose the faith of more pragmatic viewers.

An eerie film with a ghostly atmosphere that can be interpreted many different ways, where every possible scenario is a nightmare.

As a double feature I had a blast. Miss these types of screenings. “Vincent Must Die” was average for me. Nothing special. Seems the director didn’t know or couldn’t think of an explanation so just left it as whatever. “Hallow Road” was the better film. Mysterious and intriguing. I have my idea about it but overall in the moment I was locked in. I went with it and had a great time. Overall I wish they would do more double features.

Although it had a good start from the beginning… 90% of the film took place in their car on the phone. It was non cinematic, acting was terrible and story line was too simple.

It's a very suspenseful movie. You wouldn't think that two people driving and talking in a car could keep you on the edge of your seat, but this is the essence of "Hallow Road." I only wish there had been a definitive resolution to the ending; what happened to Alice and who was that couple who came to her? You can guess, but you don't really know. By the way, I thought it was funny that there were so many production credits at the end. It's a movie that follows two people in a car; why were so many people needed to make it?

A psychological thriller / horror film which with minimal yet talented cast, builds suspense throughout, with a surprising plot twist, the uneasiness and tension this film creates is aided by the claustrophobic confines of a dark car in a dark forest.

I want my $5.99 from Amazon Prime back. This movie was ridiculous and in a bad way.
