Synopsis

When a nightmarish monster emerges from the depths of an Appalachian coal mine, a young mother must hunt down the creature to protect her home and save her family.

Moviegoers are saying

Dark Hollow emerges as an ambitious eco-horror creature feature that divides audiences with its slow-burn approach and striking final act. While reviewers consistently praise the impressive practical creature design and June Schreiner's lead performance, many struggle with the film's deliberate pacing and lengthy setup before the underground terror truly begins.

The Appalachian mountains can be a hot bed for horror. There are so many mysterious things and creepy stories going on there based on what I hear from YouTube. So when I heard about a new one I thought why not check it out. It wasn't as good as it could have been but it…

This had the parts for a better movie and I liked that the finale was almost like The Descent but in a coal mine but the overall story was kinda bland and it took a long time to get to the action. When it did get there I thought it improved quite a bit and the creature…

Dark Hollow is a creature feature combined with eco horror and a family drama. And another indie movie in the blissful horror year of 2026, this time taking inspiration from some of the genre's biggest hits, The Descent. What immediately struck me was the sometimes very…

Got this movie confused with Don’t Move (2026) when I rented it and only realized it halfway through. Oh well. Anyway, I found Dark Hollow to be very slow. And I don’t mind a slower paced film but this film feels so lethargic. The characters speak slowly, the shots linger a…
