Legendary British horror film company Hammer Films will shoot a movie starring Hilary Swank in New Mexico.

“Invasion of Privacy” is a suspense thriller with a second working title of “The Resident.” Hammer is producing the film for its parent company, Exclusive Media Group. A distribution deal is in place with Exclusive Film Distribution.

The production also stars Jeffrey Dean Morgan from “The Watchmen” and “P.S. I Love You.” It will film in and around Albuquerque from May 26 to July 17. The majority of the filming will be done at Albuquerque Studios.

True to Hammer form, the story line is designed to inspire fear and anxiety. This time, it’s geared toward single women who live alone.

A release from Gov. Bill Richardson’s office says the movie is inspired by “the fact that every year, millions of single women in America move into apartments for the first time. They do not know who lived in the apartment before them, they do not know their landlords and they don’t bother to change their locks. This is the story of one such woman.”
