This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

I got it for 1.00 at a garage sale, and hopefully I can sucker some one else into buying it at my next garage sale.I can only hope this was a student film, and that it got an F. The acting, and by that I'm being kind, was some of the worst I've seen, the special effects were nothing that any competent 3rd grader couldn't have done better at and nobody killed in this dog screams when being impaled with garden trowels or butcher knives.The directer could have used enough money to try second or third takes and a few dollars spent hiring actors, or paying for acting lessons for the friends he hired, would have gone a long way.Avoid this mess at all costs, it has no redeeming aspects.

What sets hallowed apart from other films I have seen that could be considered a "B" movie? Well for starters, it overuses every cliché in the book, and does it with class. The killings? they're cheesy beyond belief, and the ending? WOW is all I can say. I laughed, I jumped, I thought, and I trembled. The film was shot on digital, which worked perfect for the film because of the flexibility it offers. Deep down I know it wanted to be serious, but it was so hard to do so. The dialogue invoked chuckles, the acting was stiff, and the plot, well lets say you could eliminate some walking for some solid prologue and epilogue space. BUT. That said, I enjoyed watching this film from start to finish because I expected nothing and received a pure gem. I would recommend this film to anyone who likes horror or "B" movies.

I'm not a slasher fan, and I wasn't involved in the production... I rented it from Netflix out of simple curiosity. Well... I have seen worse. I think the director does a reasonable job at creating an eerie tone, and the concept is kind of interesting, but there's just to much to overlook to recommend this to any casual viewer. To say the story is simple is an understatement. Too little character development, no surprises, and its just too generic for my tastes. NOW, I'm judging this against much bigger budgeted movies (in general). And I know its quite hard to make a low budget film work, and in general there are very few films of this budgetary range I'd recommend. Now compared to other films in the budgetary range? Which I'm assuming is about 50K or more (estimated 300K my butt), it's not bad. You can do a lot worse. It moves at a good pace.The acting is pretty iffy, and the music gets really over done in a lot of places. But I will say, there is one solidly acted, solidly directed, solidly written scene toward the climax where the killer and his priest come face to face. If the filmmakers had more scenes at the level of that scene, I think they would've had something for a wider audience.as is... for slasher fans only!

A little different horror movie than the in-your-face brutal slashers as Saw & Hostel (which doesn't do it for me) Hallowed delivered what it promised... a retrospect horror film. If I didn't know any better, I'd say this film was released back in the 80's. The story was simple; there was suspense, some scares and even a little blood. No heads were ripped off and no flesh-eating zombies. Just a scary tale about a disturbed man terrorizing a small California city.Of course the film isn't perfect. I rated it a solid "8" because it held my attention with great camera movement, awesome lighting and an eerie soundtrack, but some of the performances were less than perfect but you could tell the director did a good job despite the obvious lack of $$$.
