Hammer's WAKE WOOD Region 2 DVD from Momentum Pictures (reviewed)

I have reviewed the Momentum Pictures Region 2 PAL DVD of Hammer's second comeback film (after LET ME IN) for DVDBeaver.  Aidan Gillen (TV's THE WIRE) and Eva Barthistle (THE CHILDREN) play a couple who move to a remote Irish village after the death of their daughter.  They discover among the locals - lead by Timothy Spall (GOTHIC) - pagan rituals capable to bringing back the dead for three days to allow their loved ones closure.  They consent to the ritual and their daughter is returned to them, but the rules of Wake Wood have been violated, and something deadly has been woken.  Writer/producer Brendan McCarthy also produced the Irish horror films OUTCAST and ISOLATION.

MPI has also picked up WAKE WOOD for US DVD and BluRay release under the Dark Sky banner.
