Exclusive: The Victorian-era supernatural tale marks the second feature for Fizz and Ginger Films.
London-based production outfit Fizz and Ginger Films has begun shooting on horror feature The Isle, which stars Game Of Thrones’ Conleth Hill.
Early filming is taking place in Suffolk before moving to Eilean Shona, a remote island off the West coast of Scotland.
Set in 1856, the supernatural horror depicts three shipwrecked sailors who row to a nearby island with four isolated inhabitants. Once there, they discover a mysterious mass graveyard, leaving them desperate to return to the mainland.

LONDON -- Channel 4 documentaries boss Hamish Mykura has been named head of the broadcaster's arts and documentaries for digital TV channel More4, reporting to director of content Kevin Lygo.
Mykura replaces Peter Dale, who has left to set up his own production company. He will retain his documentaries portfolio for the main channel alongside the More4 position.
"Through its close association with the British Documentary Film Foundation, More4 champions original documentaries from around the world, and so I am delighted that Hamish will be bringing his expertise in this area to the channel," Lygo said.
Mykura joins More4 -- home to such broadcasts as "Death of a President" and "The Trial of Tony Blair" -- at a time when the channel saw last year's share of viewers up 36% from the previous year.
Forthcoming highlights include "Kubrick's Cubes", which has access to the legendary filmmaker's private archives, and Brian Woods' "Chosen", a blistering expose of child abuse at a British public school.
