Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com It’s kind of a disappointment, despite having some undeniable positives that should make it an easy watch for horror heads. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 27, 2024 Full Review Natalia Keogan AV Club It may not feel like the most emblematic of the family’s close-knit filmmaking style, but it is undeniably branded by their touch, rife with naturalistic dialogue and sludge metal galore. Rated: B Aug 22, 2024 Full Review Catherine Bray Guardian Existing as a labour of love isn’t enough by itself to earn any film a pass mark, but when the result is a committed piece of indie genre work with a suitably silly sense of the macabre, this gets the job done. Rated: 3/5 Aug 21, 2024 Full Review Lee Zumpe Tampa Bay Newspapers “Hell Hole” suffers from clunky editing and awkward pacing. The CGI, though used sparingly, is embarrassing. Oct 28, 2024 Full Review Michael Talbot-Haynes Film Threat Well worth sticking your face into Hell Hole, as there is a prize inside the box of wood chips. Rated: 7/10 Oct 11, 2024 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed This is the kind of fun film that makes a perfect horror fan’s Saturday night. Sep 14, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Jeepers C This movie really wasn't bad. I went into it, not knowing anything about it and came out enjoying it. Fans of John Carpenters "The Thing" will probably like this film , as it shares the whole alien jumping body routine in the movie. It has some really cool moments where bodies are exploding and the creatures design is pretty cool. The story starts out in Serbia. There is a Serbian franking operation going on. That's where the trouble starts. They discover a live person in a pod like cocoon that is infected with the foreign alien creatures. It comes out and starts the cycle of jumping to and from different members of the frakking team. This is where the creature gets hostile as it host keeps getting killed. It must find another. The team tries to escape from this monster. Is it too late, will anyone survive. From the ending, that they leave you with, I think the alien is alive. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/29/24 Full Review Audience Member Stupid characters, silly story unattractive women bad dialog etc etc etc Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/20/24 Full Review Sarfaraz A This monster film was written, directed, and starred by John Adams and Toby Poser. The plot revolves around American drilling bosses in Siberia who discover a Napoleonic-era soldier in a shell with a parasite residing in his host body. When the host intends to commit suicide, the monster continues to shift to another body. It requires just a male host to survive. The film is below average, shot fully during the day, which reduces the fear factor. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/23/24 Full Review Audience Member Halfway decent movie. Acting is ok and special effects are meh. There are long conversations in a foreign language (Russian?) without subtitles which is really strange. It’s basically a modern take on The Thing. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Bob F It sucked. Bad what happened to movies. The remake of salems lot was 10 times better and it got a 48 score and you rate this trash as 80 Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/09/24 Full Review Darren D The Adams, my favourite film making family in the horror genre return with "Hell Hole" another well made, but different small budget horror starring, written & directed by John Adams, Toby Poser & co written with their daughter, Lulu Adams. "Hell Hole" is unlike their previous movies, which were darker with more focus on revenge, motherhood, witchcraft, haunted by grief & guilt, but here they go lighter, with the feeling the Adams are having fun working around the budget to produce an entertaining creature feature mixed with environmental body horror & a sense of humour.
