Ithaqua - New Horror Film from Hammer

[DR Herbert West]

For the First Time in 60 Years, Hammer Films Unleashes a Brand New Monster

The legendary brand Hammer Films is plotting a return with a brand new slate of movies under the ownership of British theater producer John Gore, the new team aiming to “celebrate and preserve the unmatched legacy of Hammer and to usher in a new era of storytelling.” For the first time in 60 years, on that note, Hammer is unleashing a brand new movie monster!

The brand announced on Instagram over the weekend that director and producer Casey Walker will soon unleash Ithaqua, which is set in the brutal wilderness of 1800s Canada.

Hammer Films previews, “the fur trade is in decline and a remote outpost is starving. A mercenary fights to unite the survivors against the cold, the hunger… and something far worse.

“A dark force is watching. Waiting. And those who fall into its grasp are cursed with an insatiable hunger for flesh.”

Now in production, Ithaqua will feature a cast of notable actors including Luke Hemsworth, Kevin Durand, Michael Pitt, Craig Lauzon, and Leenah Robinson.

“This is horror as it was meant to be: terrifying and utterly unforgettable,” teases Hammer.
