The Woman in Black has been one of the most successful films of the year, with Daniel Radcliffe really making a mark following the end of Harry Potter, switching genres to embrace the Hammer horror. We heard earlier in the month that Tom Harper (Misfits) has been set to helm the sequel, The Woman in [...]
Last year the Hammer horror name made a welcome return with The Woman In Black and now there are three new Blu-ray releases of Hammer classics, The Devil Rides Out, The Mummy’s Shroud and Rasputin The Mad Monk. Back in my teenage years, when there were only four channels of TV to watch in the [...]
Starring Daniel Radcliffe in the lead, The Woman in Black has been one of the biggest British films of the year, turning its $15m. budget into north of $130m. around the globe in the spring. Hammer Films have now announced that the BAFTA-nominated director, Tom Harper (Misfits, This is England ’86), will helm the upcoming [...]
Hammer’s cinematic update of Susan Hill’s The Woman in Black did very well at the Box Office with a sequel entitled Angels of Death already in the works and the studio’s next project, The Quiet Ones, in its early stages of shooting it’s a fine time to be back in business. When The Woman in [...]
New details have emerged of the sequel to The Woman in Black, which is cheerily subtitled Angels of Death, and we have a clearer picture of how Hammer will keep the old girl going without Daniel Radcliffe to scare in the face. Shock Till You Drop have their hands on a brief outline of what [...]
The fortunes of the revitalised Hammer studio were significantly increased when The Woman in Black became the highest grossing British Horror Film for many years, a much-needed success story to restate Executive Media’s claim to the Hammer name and legacy. Today sees an announcement concerning their recent film which is both expected and unexpected. Sequels [...]
We’re now only days away from the creepiest and most upsetting movie in years hitting cinemas (our review here). It’s already been well received in the US, where it made back its budget this weekend, and in case you haven’t read our review, we thought it was rather good. Last week we published our premiere [...]
Throughout today we have been running extended versions of our interviews from the premiere of The Woman In Black. One of the most interesting things that came up during those interviews related to Hammer Films plans for the future. During our conversation with Simon Oakes, CEO of the company, he revealed, “We’re going to look [...]
There are a number of film related books competing with Titan Books’ The Hammer Vault for your money this Christmas but I’ve not seen any which have drawn me back like this one. With its archive treasures and magnificent artwork Marcus Hearn’s book has sinks its teeth right in. Part historical document, part artwork gallery, [...]
‘Who’ saw this coming??? According to Variety, ‘Harry Potter’ director David Yates will bring the BBC’s long-running, much-loved primetime sci-fi series Doctor Who to the cinema screen! Yates is due to commence development on the feature very soon, alongside the US-based BBC Worldwide executive VP of programming and production, Jane Tranter. Little is known about [...]
In late 1960s London, workers are digging at Hobbs Lane station, in order to extend the London Underground. They suddenly come across ape-like fossils that are unlike any seen before, along with what is initially believed to be an unexploded WWII bomb, but turns out instead to be some sort of missile or space craft [...]
Comic Con may be going on in the US at the moment but what we really care about is our very own Con here in the UK and fortunately, the Empire Big Screen is coming on August 12th – 14th at the O2 in London! We’ll be there and hope you will be too so [...]
With just over three weeks to go until Empire’s Big Screen hits London’s o2 arena there’s a definite buzz around the event, which is billing itself as the biggest of its kind held in the UK. The full details of the three day programme are due to be revealed over the next few days but [...]
Having relaunched their brand with Matt Reeves’ Let the Right One In remake, Let Me In, Hammer Films have selected as their sophomore effort The Resident – a home invasion movie starring part-time scream queen Hilary Swank, retired Watchman Jeffrey Dean Morgan and one of those sprawling apartments you only ever see in movies. Juliet Devereau (Swank), [...]
I’m hoping you’ll have all tuned in to see Sir Christopher Lee receive the BAFTA Fellowship on Sunday night and it was an award well deserved, not least because the man’s body of work spans eight decades and he continues to work, returning to the studio where he made his name for Hammer’s The Resident. [...]
Hammer Films have just sent us this brand new international trailer for their new movie, The Resident. It stars Hilary Swank (Million Dollar Baby, Amelia), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Watchmen, The Losers) and Hammer veteran Christopher Lee (The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars). It’s set for release in the UK 11th March 2011. Synopsis: Every [...]
I wonder how long it will be before the identity of the new Hammer Studio is set, coming as they do into a very different cinematic world with a glorious, if a little archaic, reputation. When I spoke to the CEO of Hammer Simon Oakes the film he was talking up, and naturally so, was [...]
Following on from their brand relaunch with the US remake of Let the Right One In, here’s a poster (courtesy of IMP Awards) for another film from the newly restored Hammer studios. The Resident stars Hillary Swank as a young doctor who finds herself becoming the object of her new landlord’s (played by Watchmen’s Jeffrey [...]
This week sees the release of Let Me In, the Matt Reeves directed adaptation of John Ajvide Lindqvist’s novel starring It-Girl Chloe Moretz and Kodi Smit-McPhee. It is the first major release from the rejuvenated Hammer, a name synonymous with cinematic horror. Fans of the much loved Tomas Alfredson adaptation of the novel may have [...]
