SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK Gets A Spooky New Preview

By  | 

“Do you want to see a haunted house.” I’m going to with NO! on this one.

CBS Films, Lionsgate and eOne has released a brand new trailer for SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK. I can’t wait for this one!

It’s from the director of the 2010 Norwegian dark fantasy film TROLL HUNTER, André Øvredal.

In his review Travis Keune wrote, “Director Andre Ovredal wisely keeps keep the creatures hidden in the shadows, providing only quick glimpses, mostly through night-vision cameras. It’s a smart technique and really the only way this movie would work since these monsters are so goofy-looking (think Where the Wild Things Are crossed with Ed ‘Big Daddy’ Roth) that lingering on them would dilute the substantial tension that’s generated. The concept is so preposterous and the creature design so loony-tunes that it’s somewhat miraculous what Ovredal has pulled off here; a film that casually establishes a believable mythology where trolls exist among humans.”  Review

The film opens in theaters everywhere August 9, 2019.

It’s 1968 in America. Change is blowing in the wind…but seemingly far removed from the unrest in the cities is the small town of Mill Valley where for generations, the shadow of the Bellows family has loomed large. It is in their mansion on the edge of town that Sarah, a young girl with horrible secrets, turned her tortured life into a series of scary stories, written in a book that has transcended time—stories that have a way of becoming all too real for a group of teenagers who discover Sarah’s terrifying home.

Based on the series by Alvin Schwartz, SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK is produced by Guillermo del Toro, Sean Daniel, Jason F. Brown, J. Miles Dale and Elizabeth Grave.

The film features Zoe Colletti, Michael Garza, Gabriel Rush, Austin Abrams, Dean Norris, Gil Bellows, Lorraine Toussaint, Austin Zajur, Natalie Ganzhorn.
