Hammer Films: The Quiet Ones: From Production Intelligence
Having recently seen ‘The Woman in Black’ become the most successful British horror film of the last twenty years, Hammer Film Productions are pushing forward with their next feature: ‘The Quiet Ones’.
Established in 1934, the company’s series of gothic ‘Hammer Horror’ films have long been recognised around the world as a seminal brand, dominating the genre.
As with ‘The Woman in Black’, ‘The Quiet Ones’ will be based at Pinewood – preproduction gets underway mid April, with an eye to shooting early-mid June.
Allegedly based on real life events, it centres on a maverick professor and his students, who embark on an experiment to create a poltergeist, with terrifying consequences. John Pogue directs from his own screenplay.
