Siddhant Adlakha Variety Set almost entirely during an urgent car ride, “Hallow Road” begins as an intensely performed, deftly minimalist family thriller about two parents driving to the scene of their daughter’s accident... before swerving in completely unpredictable ways. Mar 24, 2025 Full Review Fionnuala Halligan Screen International Despite its vaguely-generic title, this well-crafted close-quarters suspense from British-Iranian director Babak Anvari is firmly-written, -shot and -acted. Mar 14, 2025 Full Review Ritesh Mehta IndieWire Unfortunately, the film never transcends its tone of ever-present and palpable danger to become a more satisfying character piece. Rated: C+ Mar 14, 2025 Full Review David Crow Den of Geek More a dark fable than a traditional horror movie, Anvari uses the brutal high-concept of Hallow Road’s setup and its structure to immerse the viewer and characters into water that’s pitched at a boiling roar before we even have our bearings. Rated: 5/5 Mar 18, 2025 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Hallow Road is an Irish co-production, and it shows both in theme and in quality. Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 14, 2025 Full Review Matt Donato Collider Performances are the spectacle, and both actors do a tremendous job translating the worst feeling any parent can experience. It all depends on your patience for slow-burn horrors, and if there's enough nightmare fuel to stay along for the ride. Rated: 6/10 Mar 13, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
