Another report from Austin's funkiest film festival. Read the full article on AICN I am a self proclaimed cheerleader for independent horror because I truly appreciate someone trying to scare the shit out of me in new and exciting ways, especially considering the limitations most of these filmmakers inherently face. While THE HIVE certainly accomplished this, I would be remiss not to mention that it also sometimes falls off the rails a bit throughout.The film opens with 19 year old protagonist, Adam, waking in a barricaded infirmary.
