Hammer Films has begun shooting in Donegal on its first production in almost 30 years – a horror thriller entitled The Wake Wood.
The film – about a couple who try to resurrect their dead daughter – stars Timothy Spall and Aiden Gillen.
It is the first feature from the cult British company since it was bought last year by a Dutch consortium.
Hammer became synonymous with the horror genre in the 1950s thanks to films like Dracula and The Mummy.
Other famous Hammer films include The Curse of Frankenstein and The Curse of the Werewolf.
