Hammer Horror’s Ithaqua [2025]

Hammer Horror are back from the dead. Having released Doctor Jekyll [2023] they have finally announced their latest film production, Ithaqua.

Ithaqua will be directed by Casey Walker who has previous form as director of the excellent The Void [2016] HP Lovecraft inspired tale of cults and inter-dimensional gateways to evil.

I'm a fan of Hammer's classic Abominable Snowman [1957] starring Peter Cushing so I have high hopes for this similar release. According to the Hammer Horror press release : "Set in the brutal wilderness of 1800s Canada, the fur trade is in decline and a remote outpost is starving. A mercenary fights to unite the survivors against the cold, the hunger… and something far worse. A dark force is watching. Waiting. And those who fall into its grasp are cursed with an insatiable hunger for flesh.

Hammer Horror’s legacy continues with Ithaqua, now in production, starring Luke Hemsworth, Kevin Durand, Michael Pitt, Craig Lauzon & Leenah Robinson, and directed by Casey Walker.

This is horror as it was meant to be: terrifying and utterly unforgettable."
