Rating: 6/10 -- Certainly inspirational and occasionally haunting, with great effects, Don't Be Afraid of the Dark is also a bit overlong and padded. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- The husband's hostility seems to encourage disaster, and the depiction of the couple's relationship offers something of a preview of what Stanley Kubrick would do with Jack Nicholson and Shelley Duvall in the early part of 'The Shining.' Full Review

Sticks to the familiar but he does it in such a way that it's still extremely creepy, a little bit campy and, at times, quite a lot of fun. Full Review

Rating: 5/10 -- If you were a child and saw it for the first time on television some four decades ago, it might have seemed pretty scary. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

An old house... a mysterious locked room... a terrifying secret. Elements that make a horror movie memorably chilling get a taut, spooky reworking in Don't Be Afraid of the Dark. Kim Darby and Jim Hutton star as Sally and Alex, young marrieds who inherit a crumbling mansion. Despite warnings to leave well enough alone in her new home, Sally unlocks the mysterious room, opens a bricked-up fireplace - and unleashes a horde of hideous, whispering, murdering mini-demons only she can see and hear. Alex thinks she's imagining things. We know she isn't. And we know Sally should be very, very afraid of the dark!

Product Description:

A young couple inherit a house possessed by evil little creatures. Made for television.

Found Memories Movie Lover: from LISLE, NY US -- February, 14, 2011

This movie is one that I have not seen in ages! I was actually trying to remember the title, when looking through Oldies.com, I actually found it. The order came sooner than expected, and was of great quality. Can not wait to see it again.
