Don't Be Afraid of the Dark is pushed back two weeks

Troy Nixey's Guillermo del Toro produced remake of Don't Be Afraid of the Dark will open this summer on August 26th 2011 , two weeks later than originally planned.

FilmDistrict, who had recent major success with Insidious, will now compete against Dimension Films' Apollo 18 by pushing back Don't Be Afraid of the Dark. 

The film tells the story of a young girl in the middle of a recent move to an ancient mansion in Rhode Island. Unbeknown to her and her family, the huge mansion houses a terrible secret which she soon unleashes, putting everyone in danger. 

Don't Be Afraid of the Dark is definitely not a film to overlook this summer, no matter how long they push it back.
