Wake Wood
Directed by David Keating
A grieving couple are given the chance to resurrect their daughter in this Irish horror film starring Aidan Gillen of “Game of Thrones” fame. After Alice’s accidental death, her parents move to a quaint village to make a fresh start. But when a local offers to perform a ceremony that will temporarily bring their daughter back, they can’t resist. But when Alice returns, she isn’t quite herself, of course. One of the best offerings from the new Hammer Films, this supernatural scarefest should please fans of THE WICKER MAN, DON’T LOOK NOW and VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED.
A grieving couple are given an opportunity to resurrect their daughter for three days.
Cast: Timothy Spall, Aiden Gillen, Eva Birthistle

I like this movie. It was different.
Absolutely fantastic.
I wasn’t a big fan of this one. I’ve seen far worse for sure but something about it just bugged me. I think I saw the actor so much in GoT that I couldn’t get past it. I sort of understand the Pet Sematary vibes but disagree this is the same story. It’s definitely different and, unfortunately, not as good. If you’re just dying to watch a horror movie and don’t have other options then it’s worth a watch but most are better than this one in my opinion.
I loved this movie! It hooked me in at the beginning and didn't let me go until the credits at the end. I have heard people compare it to "Pet Semetary" and I just don't see it. To me, these are completely different movies-IMO. No spoilers from me but the ending was so good...
A well done little film with Pet Semetary vibes. The lore was pretty interesting (and gory), and the twist at the end was actually good.
