Lots of Super Scary Whispering in Full-length ‘Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark’ Trailer, Now in HD!
Updated with HD version inside:
There’s nothing like a film that actually deserves a remake. The original 1973 made for TV version of Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark is pretty dated, and cheesy. So for Guillermo del Toro to produce a modern redo, it only made sense.
The original teaser for the Troy Nixey-directed nightmare was absolutely incredible, and with an August 26 release in the cards, an even more insane full-length trailer has made its way online. There’s a lot more whispering…
“The pic follows Sally (Bailee Madison), a young girl who moves to Rhode Island to live with her father (Guy Pearce) and his new girlfriend (Katie Holmes) in the 19th-century mansion they are restoring. Having stumbled upon the mansion’s hidden basement, Sally starts hearing voices calling out from the bolted ash pit, imploring her to open it. Sally obliges and unwittingly unleashes something so terrible, so unthinkable, that everyone’s life – hers most of all – is placed in immediate and grave danger.”
The classic murder-mystery game Clue is headed back to screens both big and small, with Variety reporting this week that Sony is planning potential film and television adaptations.
Variety reports, “Hasbro Entertainment has closed a deal with Sony‘s TriStar Pictures and Sony Pictures Television for the film and TV rights for the beloved board game.”
“Sony is the perfect partner to adapt a property as culturally impactful and mystery-defining as ‘Clue,’” said Hasbro’s Zev Foreman and Gabriel Marano. “Nicole Brown, Katherine Pope, and their teams are tremendous creative collaborators and ideal partners to help us figure out after 75 years if it was Colonel Mustard in the conservatory with the candlestick.”
Clue was created way back in 1943 by Anthony E. Pratt, and the board game was of course notably turned into a feature film starring Tim Curry in 1985 and a mini-series in 2011.
Ryan Reynolds had more recently been attached to star in a remake for 20th Century Studios, while Fox Entertainment had been developing an animated series a few years back.
