Hammer Films

Hammer Films is a London based production subsidiary of Exclusive Media Group and a legendary British film brand. Originally launched in 1934, Hammer delivered a hugely successful run of films in the 1950s including Gothic classics Dracula and The Curse Of Frankenstein and Sci-Fi picture The Quatermass Xperiment. Hammer's reputation became branded worldwide as ‘Hammer House of Horror’. In the 1960s Hammer struck distribution deals with Universal, Warner Brothers, Fox and Columbia. Hammer went on to produce a huge volume of films which included such titles as The Plague Of The Zombies, The Nanny, Quatermass And The Pit, The Devil Rides Out and One Million Years B.C.

Not in production since the 1980s, the company is now being aggressively reinvigorated by Exclusive through new investment in the development and production of film, television and digital-platform content.

Hammer’s return to horror was heralded by interactive web serial “Beyond The Rave”, which was broadcast by MySpace in 12 territories in 2008. Today, Hammer has an active development slate totaling more than 25 projects across diverse genres sourced out of both Europe and the United States. Hammer's first two theatrical features of the millennium, The Resident and Let Me In, are currently in post-production.
