Rating: 7/10 -- The end is a little pat and the story a little too predictable, but much of the film takes a tight hold on the viewer. Full Review

4 stars out of 5 -- Creepy enough to get in your bones and convincing enough to stay there, David Keating's film juxtaposes the grim minutiae of death with the ravages of grief.

Wake Wood is the latest evidence that new-model Hammer is harking back to a less atrocity-driven style of horror, built on an accumulation of creepy atmosphere rather than the systematic subjection of disposable teenagers to gruesome ordeals. Full Review

Rating: 5/10 -- Wake Wood at least shows that Hammer is ready to be a player again in the field of horror. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- The enveloping creepiness of the village setting scores points, which the film proceeds to squander in careless plotting, imprecise effects and a denouement of arrant silliness. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Wake Wood is an effectively creepy exploration of some of life's biggest moments (birth and death) and is definitely worth checking out Full Review

Product Description:

A veteran and a pharmacist learn there is no cheating death after losing their daughter in a tragic accident, then taking part in a Pagan ritual to bring her back to life. Their nine year old daughter Alice killed in a vicious canine attack, Patrick (Aidan Gillen) and Louise move to the sleepy village of Wakewood to start a new life. Once there, they encounter mysterious village leader Arthur (Timothy Spall), who claims he can resurrect Alice for three days so the grieving parents can say their proper goodbyes. If they agree, however, Patrick and Louise will be binded to Wakewood forever. Shortly thereafter, and the ritual is conducted. As Arthur promised, Alice returns to her parents as if she were never gone. But when three days pass and the time comes for Alice to go, Patrick and Louise discover just how frightening things can get when the rules are broken.
