Electrical resistance (R) of Ho thin films evaporated in vacuum ≈ 10^{-7} Pa was studied in a temperature range from 2 K up to 300 K and in magnetic field up to 9 T. Measurements showed resistance anomalies below 20 K - minima of R value in 36 nm and 215 nm thin films and resistivity maximum at 3.58 K in 215 nm Ho film. Increasing value of the magnetic field, applied perpendicular to film surface up to 5 T, caused increasing suppression of the R minima in these films with subsequent disappearance of them in fields above 5 T. Maximum of R value in 215 nm thin film at 3.58 K decreased with increasing flux density up to 5 T and it was suppressed at fields above 5 T. X-ray diffraction of these films revealed two phases composition consisting of the hexagonal Ho and of cubic HoH_2. The preferential crystal orientation of both phases was detected.
