Hollow Body (2018) Reviews

• Fizzles More Than It Rocks

  nebk2018-10-23

  Lightning Strike also known as Hollow Body is a cheesy horror film in which Jimmy (David Arquette) a one-hit wonder musician and producer tries to restart his rock career by forming a new band with two young musicians Scott and Rachel (Ryan Donowho & Allie Gonino) who crashed his birthday party. Things go badly when their first show is a disaster with Rachel's stage fright. Things get worse when she is hit by lightning, killed and resurected as something else. Instead of a shy timid singer she becomes a extroverted rock godess and the band becomes successful. The only problem is she burns and sucks out energy out of her victims. Overall the idea was promising but the movie goes nowhere and is ultimately slow and boring. The narration by Jimmy gets tedious after awhile. The role of Luke Wilson as a music promoter/producer brings nothing to the film and the music is bland and generic. Overall a poor effort that tries to be rock and roll cool but fizzles out.

  I just found this movie to be quite awful, with terribly lame and stilted dialogue throughout. Jimmy (David Arquette), Rachel (Allie Gonino), and Scott (Ryan Donowho) form a band called Hollow Body. Gonino is the lead singer and has an appealing voice, to go with her sultriness and charisma. However, one night suffering from stage fright, she's struck by lightning in a car with her mother who had come to drive her home. Thereafter, Gonino becomes some type of a possessed electrically charged demon. Yes, it does sound ridiculous and it is. I would say do yourself a favor and avoid this turkey, as it's seriously hokey and below even B-movie quality, in my opinion. To note, there were no subtitles on my DVD copy.

  Disjointed story with a slight cornball factor but wasn't boring. It did offer one spectacular treasure and that's Allie Gonino's hypnotic hotness and presence. Hey I'm a male and she was stunning, ultra-sexy, and captivating. Her singing performance in the film was killer rock babe heaven with a great voice. She's one of the most devilishly delicious female actors I've seen and I hope she has better upcoming roles. Yes indeed...

  High Voltage rocks harder than expected! Whether you long for retribution, youth or love you will find a world that responds to lust and greed in the most electrifying of ways. It may be a shock to realize what remains after the storm blows over. Should there be a time for reflection or do we rock on?
