Hell's Belle

About This Movie

Hell's Belle (2019) dives into some familiar territory with its ghostly revenge narrative, but it brings its own flavor to the mix. The atmosphere is thick and oppressive, really pulling you into that isolated mountain setting. The pacing has its moments; it takes its time to build tension before unleashing its supernatural elements. The practical effects are decent, not overdone, which adds a nice touch to the film's authenticity. The performances from the young cast are a bit hit or miss, but they do capture that sense of youthful bravado that leads them into trouble. The thematic undercurrents of greed and consequences really resonate, especially when you consider the historical tie to Belle Starr. It’s got a unique charm, even if it isn’t groundbreaking.
