  Hollow (Bleach) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A hollow is a plus spirit that has lost its heart, and is driven to devour others (both living and dead) to fill that void.
A hollow's mask is formed to protect the naked instinct that is left in a being after the loss of its heart, and in some ways is the tangible form of the hollow's madness.
The hollows have different abilities and differing monstrous appearances; the low level hollows are small and can only attack in a melee style, whereas the bigger and better hollows have all sorts of killing implements.

 Filmtracks: Hollow Man (Jerry Goldsmith)
Hollow Man: (Jerry Goldsmith) Continuing a working relationship with director Paul Verhoeven that previously included such rich scores as Total Recall and the Oscar nominated Basic Instinct, Jerry Goldsmith tackles the score for Hollow Man, a film with a slice of gore from the former and a slice of sensuality from the latter.
Hollow Man's score begins with its sole individuality: an electrical tingling of a futuristic scientific laboratory --a cool concept-- but even though Goldsmith employs synthesized passages during the score, the electrical feeling never amplifies into a substantial element.
The album begins promisingly, with a running time of over 50 minutes --which is a rare event for this label (though there should be nothing surprising about the length this time when considering that it was recorded overseas).
