Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })A British horror film by the refinanced "Hammer Films" starring Aidan Gillen, Eva Birthistle, and Timothy Spall. It tells the story of a couple who, after losing their daughter to a crazed dog, learn that the small English town of Wake Wood, to which they moved, brims with pagan magic. After the death of one of the locals, an opportunity arises to revive their daughter, Alice, for three days. The ritual works and the parents are overjoyed, but something is very wrong with their returned daughter.

Blood Magic: Part of the resurrection ritual requires living blood; Louise offers some of hers.

Body Motifs: The film has a lot of imagery associated with giving birth. Patrick gives a c-section at one point, and the resurrection ritual even looks like a birth scene; the latter part is lampshaded by Louise.

Back from the Dead: Alice, and later on Louise. Both for only three days, though.

comment
Broken Masquerade: Though Patrick and Louise try to hide from Alice the fact that she was dead and now alive again, Alice is shown to have brief visions of the resurrection ritual, implying that she knows what happened. On the final day, she even pleads with her parents not to send her back to the afterlife.
