…Horror Winner for A24 | Sundance 2019
"A24 already has quite the track record when it comes to deeply disturbing family horror and that trend continues with their latest, The Hole in the Ground. The movie comes from director Lee Cronin, the filmmaker behind the unforgettable short, Ghost Train, which earned him a handful of accolades on the festival circuit in 2014. I still suspect that short could be ripe for a feature adaptation, but instead, Cronin now turns his attention to the story of a mother and son who move to a secluded home a short walk away from a suspicious sinkhole.
Now having seen his feature directorial debut, I might be rooting for a Ghost Train feature film even more so because of how well The Hole in the Ground takes a simple, curious, highly cinematic premise and never over-explains or bombards you with flashy set pieces but rather, sustains its 90-minute runtime by creating two well developed, engaging characters, letting you live with them, and then all slowly slip into the darkness and paranoia together…."
