Hammer Films Mulling Televised Anthology Horror

Also heading to the stage



Hammers Films is going to be deterred by Let Me In‘s U.S. performance. The British house of horrors may carry its frights back to the small screen.

Hammer previously explored the television market with the Hammer House of Horror and the Hammer House of Mystery and Suspense.

“Television is incredibly important,” Hammer’s Simon Oakes told BBC. “I like the idea of going against conventional wisdom. People tell me that anthology doesn’t work any more. So that makes me think let’s try and make it work. I think it’s possible to do this anthology series where Hammer House of Horror has a one hour event story every week.”

While they mull that avenue, Hammer is going to create the Hammer Theatre of Horror, a stage show. Full details are expected to be revealed later this month.
