Don't Be Afraid of the Dark is among a minority of films released every year after the post-Summer season. As cinema figures decline between the months of August to November, and even sometimes until December, this latest horror in a tradition of Hollywood remakes is taken from the 1973 TV original. Produced by Hellboy's Guillermo del Toro and directed by comic-book artist Troy Nixley, Don't Be Afraid of the Dark is almost expected to be poor from the outset, mirroring the failures of recent horror remakes A Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween and The Last House on the Left.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
