Don't Be Afraid of the Dark March 14, 2012

Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (Troy Nixey, 2010) will be screened on Wednesday 14th March at 7.30pm in the Studio Theatre

Producer Guillermo del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth) and Mark Johnson (Chronicles of Narnia) join forces to deliver a tale of hair-raising, spine-chilling horror. A lonely, withdrawn child has just arrived in Rhode Island to live with her father Alex (Guy Pearce) and his new girlfriend Kim (Katie Holmes) at the 19th-century mansion they are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 and unwittingly lets loose a race of ancient, dark-dwelling creatures.
