Hammer Film Productions is a film production company based in the United Kingdom. Founded in 1934, the company is best known for his series of Gothic horror films. They were low budget but never foolish movies made with passion and love for horror, monsters and dark creatures. The huge success of the company came to an end when it was forced to "close down" after seeing how Hammer movies weren´t successfull anymore. Now, at the end of 2010, Let me in marked the resurrection of a myth, a new era for horror movies. Hammer has began to shoot and produce horror films again, great news for horror fans; almost as good news as the releasing of The art of Hammer, a full coloured book where you can see hammer posters and drawings of the company´s movies. As we can read on Arrow, the book runs at 192 pages and it will be published this month (Nov. 23rd) by Titan Books.
