Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The story takes place around Halloween but the movie was shot in May & June, 2003. Pumpkins were out of season and the Art Department was only able to locate a few actual pumpkins. A majority of the Pumpkins seen in the movie are artificial. more
Quotes:
Ian Cranston: Ichabod was killed by the horseman, right? There's absolutely no way he coulda had kids or grandkids...
Claus Van Ripper: You know that's not true. The story says that he was never seen again. But not being seen again is not the same thing as not being alive.

Okay slasher film, 25 October 2004
Author: (eddy-28) from Lake Isabella, CA

Although, the tale of the Headless Horseman has been told in previous films, Kyle Newman's directorial effort for "The Hollow" is not bad, but not good either. Set in the modern day, The Hollow tells the story of a young teenager named Ian played by Kevin Zegers. Ian happens to be interested in a girl at the local highschool played by Kaley Cuoco. Although she is dating the highschool quaterback (Nick Carter) she falls in love with Ian. But things go wrong when Ian discovers he is the great-great grandson of Icahbod Crane, and on Halloween, the legend of the headless horseman rides again and begins a grisly slaughter against the teenagers of the town. It is up to Ian to stop him. The Hollow lacks suspense and some occasional bad acting, but the story and the musical score kept the film at pace. It was interesting to see Joseph Mazzolo in a film, since he has not been familiar in films since "Jurassic Park". Also Stacy Keach steels the film has the mysterious graveyard keeper who knows the secret of the horseman and Ian's past, and it was nice to see Judge Reinhold as the abusive father type and Oscar nominee Eileen Brennan (Private Benjamin), as usual, looking mean and cruel. Above all, The Hollow, really could have used a tad more originality and maybe shifted a little bit instead of the standard teen slasher film, but you can't except much from a film such as this.
