The Curse of Bridge Hollow

The Curse of Bridge Hollow review - Netflix is getting into the Halloween spirit with The Curse of Bridge Hollow, starring Stranger Things' Priah Ferguson.

But if you want an undemanding and enjoyable light-hearted romp, you could do a lot worse than paying Bridge Hollow a visit. Priah Ferguson is the main draw and she brings her instant likeability from Erica to Sydney. The endearing connection between Wayans and Ferguson overcomes the familiarity though, even if it's a shame Sydney's mother Emily (Kelly Rowland) isn't given any depth beyond being a terrible baker. As Stingy Jack brings Halloween decorations to life, Sydney teams up with her Halloween-hating father Howard (Marlon Wayans) to save the town. Stingy Jack starts causing his mayhem around 20 minutes in, and what follows is succession of ghoulish set pieces, broken up by exposition dumps to keep the plot moving. She plays Sydney, who, after her family moves to the small town of Bridge Hollow, accidentally wakes up an ancient spirit.

Halloween is already spooky enough. Now, imagine if those "harmless" holiday decorations suddenly came to life. Hopefully, that doesn't happen to you this ...

As a member of Destiny's Child, one of the best-selling girl groups of all time, Kelly eventually dabbled in acting in addition to singing. Known for his comedic roles in movies like 21 Jump Street, The Hangover, and Talladega Nights, Riggle plays the Gordon family's new neighbor who goes all out for Halloween with his decorations. Now, with the help of her dad, she's determined to resolve her mistake. The actor and comedian plays Sydney's father, Howard and let's just say that this Halloween-loathing dad probably has every reason to dislike the holiday after this wild adventure. Hopefully, that doesn't happen to you this Halloween, but that's reality for the cast of Netflix's The Curse of Bridge Hollow. After unknowingly releasing an ancient, evil spirit on October 31, it causes decorations to come alive and wreak havoc upon the townspeople.

The décor is tired of being neglected this Halloween season. A restless spirit with malintent uses any and every Halloween decoration and animatronic in.

It feels like a story and script that would benefit from a tighter additional pass, which is frustrating since there are also plenty of compelling ideas in the movie that are left a mystery and not overexplained. Nocebo wags these tired archetypes in the audience’s face, but what’s encouraging about the film is that there’s a level of authenticity here that comes from Filipino screenwriter, Garrett Shanley. It’s no coincidence that Christine’s job centers around the exploitation of children and Felix is a marketing strategist who only views people in terms of dollar signs. It’s difficult not to be charmed by a family-friendly Halloween movie that instills the importance of Halloween while embracing it on a massive scale. A lot of Nocebo’s success relies upon not only if audiences buy into this central relationship, but if the payoff of where this all goes is actually worth the effort. Nocebo is technically a fantasy horror movie, but so much of its material examines the survival of capitalism through the exploitation–and vilification–of overseas workers, which in this case narrows in on Filipino culture. It’s through the peripheral characters and the wholesome family bonding that the target demographic is at its most pointed. Parenthood–whether it’s the stresses that surround this responsibility or the idea that someone else doesn’t deserve it–is subject matter that frequently finds itself at the center of the horror genre. On that note, Wadlow’s latest is the season’s most endearing gateway Halloween film. Bridge Hollow is at its most entertaining when it’s theming set pieces around whatever current Halloween décor is on the attack, and luckily that’s pretty often. Howard and Sydney race through town for answers on how to break the curse while Stingy Jack races to thwart them. The décor is tired of being neglected this Halloween season.
