Shock Til You Drop has learned that Hammer Films is at work on their first film since the company reformed. The upcoming film is titled ‘The Wake Wood’, which is co-written and directed by David Keating.

The Wake Wood is a tale about a couple still grieving over the death of nine-year-old Alice - their only child who was killed at the jaws of a crazed dog. Vet Patrick and pharmacist Louise relocate to the remote town of Wake Wood where they learn of a pagan ritual that will allow them three more days with Alice. The couple find the idea disturbing and exciting in equal measure, but one they agree terms with Arthur, the village’s leader, a far bigger question looms - what will they do when it’s time for Alice to go back?
