Check out the second creepy trailer for The Quiet Ones, a new Hammer horror movie starring Jared Harris and Sam Claflin.
We are so happy that Hammer Studios is back in some capacity. While they don’t release a film every year, since their rebirth they’ve reliably released old school fright fests for those who like it when something goes bump in the movie. And after Let Me In and The Woman in Black, they appear ready to continue the trend with Lionsgate in their second spine-tingling trailer for The Quiet Ones.
Supposedly based on true events, this period piece horror looks equal parts Hellhouse and Exorcist in its grand setting of 1970s creepy-crawlies. The intentionally vintage look promises hopefully another grand freak show when university student (Sam Claflin of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire) and some classmates are recruited to carry out a private experiment by a peculiar scientist (Jared Harris of Mad Men and Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) -- to create a poltergeist. Their subject: an alluring, but dangerously disturbed young woman (Olivia Cooke of Bates Motel). Their quest: to explore the dark energy that her damaged psyche might manifest. As the experiment unravels along with their sanity, the rogue PHD students are soon confronted with a terrifying reality: they have triggered an unspeakable force with a power beyond all explanation. Inspired by true events, The Quiet Ones is directed by John Pogue from a screenplay by Craig Rosenberg and Oren Moverman and John Pogue, and based on a screenplay by Tom de Ville.
The Quiet Ones opens April 25, 2014.
