An Edwardian detective investigates a series of venomous deaths in this thrilling monster horror from award-winning director Sidney J. Furie. Featuring superstitious villagers, murderous hags, a supernatural wild spirit and a modern take on "the other" in society, The Snake Woman has been painstakingly restored by Hammer from scans from the original film negatives.

Controlling his wife's madness with regular doses of snake venom, Dr Adderson is horrified when she dies giving birth to an unblinking daughter who is cold to the touch. The demented midwife, chased out of the house after trying to murder the baby, returns with an angry mob who set the house ablaze.

With a brand-new 2K restoration from the original negatives, available for the first time anywhere in the world, The Snake Woman is released on Blu-ray 4th May 2026 from Hammer Films.
