Hoboken Hollow is one of those films that makes you think two words: If Only. If only the writing had been a little better with more intriguing dialogue. If only the acting had been a little better (which is surprising considering it has Michael Madsen, Dennis Hopper, and C. Thomas Howell). If only a little more had gone into the plot to make the film seem unforced and cohesive.
Premise: A guy is hitchhiking his way to California after returning home from the war. A stranger offers him a lift to his ranch he works at and wants to know if he wants a job. Guy agrees but says it can only be for one day. The horrific events that follow on the "ranch" are beyond brutal and it i safe to say you would never wanna go there.
Gory scenes make up a lot of stuff. It is not SCARY just more of an uncomfortable collage of messed up violence. This move could have been great instead it just kinda lays there.
4.75 out of 10 stars. Only watch it if you TRULY love the genre or need some gore.
