      Audience Member The things that you see and hear in Meet the Hollowheads are... difficult to accept. I was mostly put off by the goofball circus soundtrack. Without that I bet I'd almost enjoy the movie. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member The moment the movie opens with a long tube that runs into nonsense you know you're in for a real treat! The moment Juliette Lewis steps on the scene one is bound to be like "oh yes this movie is the shit!" It's so quirky and weird from beginning to end. From the cheap set designs to the dungeon where they keep grandpa, it's pretty clear this movie was aiming at being a cult classic! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member TOTALLY WEIRD, but fun. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review dennis f a great "independent" movie - fun - Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the strangest weirdest fucking movies ever,I can't even begin to explain what it's about but Juliette Lewis is sexy as fuck in it. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member the visuals are cool, but the story is weak. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
