Hollow review

Michael Axelgaard directs this British found-footage thriller

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

Though it sounds atrocious, this British found-footage chiller starts off more intriguing than the usual Night In The Woods .

On a country weekend away, caught (for the usual reasons) on camera, two couples discover the legend of a vengeful monk and his haunted hanging tree - a surprisingly spooky conceit straight out of M.R. James (although the Dunwich setting is a nod to H.P. Lovecraft).

Shame, then, that proceedings switch from quietly creepy to loudly exasperating as relationship woes replace scares, the early promise proving a largely empty threat.
