Red-Band Trailer For Del Toro Presented DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK!
While I am somewhat surprised that distributors FilmDistrict have opted to create a red band trailer for the Guillermo Del Toro scripted and produced Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark - red band trailers normally being associated with hardcore shock and gore films as opposed to the more Gremlins-style spook ride that this one is - but the fact remains that they made a good one that shows off the most entertaining points of the film. So good on them for that.

Blackwood Manor has new tenants. While architect Alex Hurst (Guy Pearce) and his new girlfriend Kim (Katie Holmes) restore their Gothic mansion's period interiors, Alex's young daughter Sally (Bailee Madison)--neglected by her real mother and brushed aside by the careerist father--can investigate the macabre history and dark corners of the estate. Spurring Sally's investigation are the voices--rasping whispers who call out to her from the basement, who promise her understanding and friendship, who are so very hungry and would like to be set free. When Sally gives in to her curiosity, she opens a gateway into a hellish underworld from which an army of beady-eyed, sharp-clawed monsters emerge, small in size but endless in number: the homunculi. Confronted with the horror that now threatens to taker her life and destroy her family, Sally desperately tries to warn the whole house, but there's just one problem: no one believes her. Will she make them understand in time, or will they become another chapter in the centuries-long horror story of Blackwood Manor?
Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark opens across America tomorrow - August 26th - and you can check out the new trailer along with a fresh clip below.
