Classic British horror studio Hammer returns to the genre, and actor, that made it’s name, with Hammer Films latest production, the horror/thriller The Resident.
Starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Watchmen, Supernatural), The Resident finds Hilary Swank playing a doctor who moves into a new tenement only to be stalked by her landlord (Morgan). Inevitably, his creep factor rises and a game of cat and mouse begins. The film is directed and co-written by Finnish director Antti J. Jokinen and marks his English language feature debut.
The Resident is a milestone for the ‘new’ Hammer as it’s the first time co-star Christopher Lee and Hammer Films have worked together since To the Devil a Daughter in 1976. It’s about time such a renown name in horror returned to ourt screens, here’s hoping Hammer finds as much success now as they did in their hey-day.
