Goofs
The sheriff carries a Ruger Mini-14 rifle throughout the film, however there is never a magazine in the weapon. Though Ruger does make a version of the rifle with a fixed internal magazine, you can clearly see the open magazine well in a few shots; he's carrying an empty weapon. See more »Quotes

I recently saw Shallow Ground at the Fantasia film festival. Very interesting premise. Bloody Boy was a great character. Just enough gore to suit any horror aficionado. Tension building during critical scenes was done very well. Music was particularly good, especially during scenes with Bloody Boy. Set was awesome! Where did you find the place?Really liked the scene with the girl hanging and toes barely scraping the ground - very scary! Characters were good, but wanted more background and build-up on them. All-in-all a good movie for a B-horror flick. I recommend seeing it if you are a fan of horror. I hope that a sequel may be forthcoming with more of the same.
