The Hill and the Hole

I have NO IDEA where these high ratings come from, maybe from friends of the director. It was a movie that seemed 3 hours long and that's never a good thing if you are waiting for the ending. I would look to watch a different movie this was a science fiction at best and it was done very poorly!!

I won't say it's a waste of your 90 minutes but don't expect Twin Peaks, X-files or Close Encounters. The story has tension and potential but it feels that they wrote out the 1 or 2 explanations that would have made the finale pay off. It sets an eerie mood and each character is weirder than the previous one but there's a plot hole you can't see but you know it's there. It's a fun little indie but don't expect to be satisfied by the ending.

Not really sure what's going on, but there's some whacked out surveyor geek having a bad trip or delusions of some sort at the beginning.

I guess he finds out some hill that exists doesn't exist on a town map. Much weirdness ensues.

Some kind of alien influence I guess?? Turns local townies into dirt eating suicidal loons.

-1 Star for the really lame red light alien effects......

-1 Star for old man chased off by car headlights when he's about to smoke dude with a machete

OMG THE ENDING WAS HORRIBLY STUPID.

Like they just gave up on the movie at all lol

-1 Star for the Stupid Ending.....

2/10

I caught this film by chance and really found myself enjoying it. I wasn't too sure what to expect at first but the dark comedy reminding me somewhat of some of the Cohen Bros. movies kept my attention and I also liked the horror elements to it.

The story was unique as well and I wasn't sure what to expect from the outset. Kept my attention throughout however and I would recommend the film to friends to at least give a chance.

An admirable effort, to adapt a relatively obscure authors work, though the fact remains: its a short story, and at 80 minutes this movie plays like an exceedingly long twilight zone tale. the creepy and strange is diluted to kooky and weird, the wit is more kevin smith than lovecraft, and the ending is... boring. overall disappointing, pass unless you cant resist the premise
