Posted on: August 3rd, 2010 TRAILER: Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark

Here’s a little fallout from SDCC that those in attendance were lucky to see – the trailer for Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark, co-written and produced by Guillermo Del Toro.

Check out the trailer below. This one is definitely on my radar now, not only because of Del Toro being involved, but I have to give it to the trailer for being legitimately creepy.

Official Synopsis:

Sally Hurst (Bailee Madison), a lonely, withdrawn child, has just arrived in Rhode Island to live with her father Alex (Guy Pearce) and his new girlfriend Kim (Katie Holmes) at the 19th-century mansion they are restoring. While exploring the sprawling estate, the young girl discovers a hidden basement, undisturbed since the strange disappearance of the mansion’s builder a century ago. When Sally unwittingly lets loose a race of ancient, dark-dwelling creatures who conspire to drag her down into the mysterious house’s bottomless depths, she must convince Alex and Kim that it’s not a fantasy—before the evil lurking in the dark consumes them all.
When a little girl (Bailee Madison) is sent to live with her father (Guy Pearce) and his girlfriend (Katie Holmes) in the old mansion they are renovating, she unwittingly unleashes malevolent creatures bent on destroying all of them.

    Are you sure this isn’t a Ghoulies remake? I was waiting to see one of those skinny bald creatures pop it’s head out of a toilet.

    Oh, and don’t attach this trailer in front of a Twilight movie or the soccer moms will complain.
