This was a good movie for people in the age from 35-89:)
Belive that is the reason the rateing are so low. Omnius, creepy setting. All god acting. A twist on an old folklore.
Pros:
Cinematography is well done
Acting is exceptional at moments
Practical effects were decent
Cons: The soundtrack of the film is a bit overbearing and often leads to more of a sensation of melodrama rather than suspense The feeling of dread and suspense doesn't really kick in until the later half of the film The film relies on multiple occurrences of look in direction, nothing there, look away, look back, somethings there. This happens to end up flawed since suspense is not built up enough for these moments to pay off
Overall, a good watch but I wouldn't suggest paying a full price of admission to a theater. The film feels more at home on a movie streaming service.

It started off well but the last 30 minutes just ruined the whole movie.
The computer-generated imagery is pretty bad , it looks cheap and someone who has very little knowledge in creating CGI was hired for these effects in this particular movie, don't get me wrong, it's not the first and probably not the last horror movie with bad effects , we've seen it in many new horror movies, poor CGI makes movies less real and barely watchable, this movie is no exception.
The movie plot is just okay, we've seen it already, don't expect something new, don't expect something extraordinary, watch it if you're an horror enthusiast, but if you're someone who can't stand poorly made horrors, just skip this movie and find another one to watch.
The haters will hate.
As a film lover and director myself, the script was good, directing was good, story was executed well. It was suspenseful and the editor gets props from me.
This film is based on very common folk tale. I saw many demon child movies. Children of the Corn, Pet Cemetery etc. It means many movie genre fan are still love this kind movie. I expect baby face killer. And there is but this is not that much brutal and doesn't have much gore scenes. So, I think The Hollow Child is fully enjoyable for fun and mid horror.
