Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark

Guillermo Del Toro is producing this upcoming thriller/horror flick, directed by a protegé of his, Troy Nixey.

A young girl sent to live with her father and his new girlfriend discovers creatures in her new home who want to claim her as one of their own. [IMDB]

Guy Pearce stars as Daddy and Katie Holmes as the new girlfriend, and young cutie-pie Bailee Madison stars as Sally, the daughter.

Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark is a remake of a 1973 made-for-tv horror film, and personally I'd love to see the original before seeing this newest attempt at the concept. Sometimes nothing beats a good made-for-tv crapfest.

The whole idea of this movie gets me thinking that Katie Holmes is perfect for this role, as she probably knows how it feels to find terrifying creatures in her home.

Anyways, the monster mayhem is coming sometime in 2010.
