SDCC 2011: New Trailer Released For ‘Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark’

Here’s the new creepy “Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark” Comic-Con trailer that was shown at the recent panel in Hall H. Aside from this reveal, FilmDistrict has also launched the film’s official interactive site.

Based on the 1973 telefilm that Guillermo del Toro believes to be the scariest TV production ever made, DON’T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK was co-written and co-produced by del Toro and directed by Troy Nixey. Akin to PAN’S LABYRINTH, DON’T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK focuses on a young girl’s struggle against menacing and terrifying forces.

I cannot wait for this film, it’s described by Del Toro as a classic horror which will just scare the hell out of you rather than disgust or thriller you.
