Unlike previous reviewers of this film, I failed to understand it one iota. I gave one star for the amazing cinematography and use of interesting camera angles and effects, but the plot (if there even was one) appears to have escaped me entirely. Like many of the movies which rack up independent film awards that few of us have ever heard of, this title promises so much and delivers so very little. It's as if someone came up with a good idea for frightening protagonists and got a good director on board but then asked a stoned hobo to come up with a storyline. For us mere mortals (who just enjoy a good movie) sadly, 'Hellions' is a complete waste of time. I stuck with it until the bitter end, hoping that somehow it would all come together or be explained, but alas I was left confused and bewildered. If you're willing to sit through the multitude of dream sequences, psychedelic backgrounds and don't require any sort of plot you're able to follow or even grasp at all, then perhaps this is the film for you.
