Principal Photography has started on The Quiet Ones, a supernatural thriller/horror film from Hammer Film Productions which is shooting on location in Oxfordshire. 

 

Starring Jared Harris (Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) and Sam Claflin (Snow White & the Huntsman, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides), The Quiet Ones is directed by John Pogue with an original screenplay by Tom DeVille.

 

Inspired by true events, The Quiet Ones tells the story of an unorthodox, but charismatic Professor (Harris) who uses controversial methods and leads his best students off the grid to take part in a dangerous experiment: to create a poltergeist from negative human energy.

 

The Quiet Ones marks Hammer”s next production after the worldwide box office hit, The Woman in Black, starring Daniel Radcliffe, which has taken over $130 million at the box-office worldwide to date. Other Hammer productions in the works include The Woman In Black: Angels Of Death, to be produced with Talisman, Cross Creek Pictures and Alliance Films; Boneshaker to be produced with Cross Creek Pictures; Gaslight written by newcomer Ian Fried and the newly announced The Winchester Mystery House to be produced with Imagination Design Works and Nine/8 Entertainment.
