Quotes:

[Brody leads Scott and Amber to the graveyard for a good scare]
Amber: What's the big deal with all this anyway?
Brody: The big deal is that you, Karen, and everybody else around here take the legacy of this town for granted. You act like it's just another place on the map.
Amber: You're drunk.
[Brody comes over and grabs Amber, painfully, by the arm]
Brody: [to Amber's face] But it's not just another place on the map. This is the birthplace of the most famous ghost story there ever was.
Amber: You're hurting me!
Brody: This should be the end-all, be-all of Halloween. And what have we got to show for it? A junior boy storyteller and a hokey haunted hayride.
Amber: [to Scott] Scott, could you please get this gorilla off me?
[Scott finally steps up]

Great Family film!

I thought the Hollow was a GREAT family film. It has a few bad editing here and there, but over all, it's a fun film for the whole family. The story line holds both, adults and children's attention. There's not too much gore for the younger kids, and there's a fun teen cast for the older kids to enjoy. Personally I thought Nick Carter's character, Broady, stole the show! Nick Cater was great in his first role, and I hope to see him more in the future in film. He was fun, witty, and charming. Just fun to watch all together. If you have a mix of old and younger kids, and you're searching for a film to watch for Halloween, The Hollow is GREAT! It gets my vote.
