Cover art for WAKE WOOD from HAMMER

HAMMER has been dishing out the horror pretty steady the last few months. Tonight I got the word on their next release a flick called WAKE WOOD. Here’s the creepy cover art:

And here is what we can expect story wise:

We are told the tale of Patrick and Louise Daley (Aiden Gillen and Eva Birthistle), whose 9-year-old daughter, Alice (Ella Connolly), is killed in a horrific dog attack. To escape their grief, the devastated young parents move to the remote rural Irish community of Wake Wood (the movie was shot on location in County Donegal, Ireland). Sensing Patrick and Louise’s loss, the strange people of Wake Wood introduce the couple to a bizarre pagan ritual that will bring Alice back from the grave – for three days only. The Daleys find the idea disturbing and exciting in equal measure, but once they agree to terms with Arthur, the village’s mysterious leader, a far bigger question looms: What will they do when it’s time for Alice to leave them forever?

June 20th will bring the DVD debut from DARK SKY.
