Every so often I run across a film that is garnering very little buzz, but looks like it has enormous potential. So, in an effort to help bring these smaller, obscure films a bit more buzz I plan on posting the occasional plug for the film. My inaugural pick is an upcoming animated horror film that looks absolutely amazing. Animated entirely in gorgeous black and white, the film is actually six animated shorts from the likes of Blutch, Charles Burns, Marie Caillou, Pierre Di Sciullo, Lorenzo Mattotti, and Richard Maguire. I’d say more but I think the trailer speaks for itself.
Fears of the Dark opens at the Landmark Lagoon Cinema on November 14.

Totally freaky. The music alone had me sitting on the edge of my seat!

I’ve caught some early reviews of this and they’ve been mostly positive. We’ll see if I man up and get to the theater.

Hopefully it is around for more then a week long run at the Lagoon/Uptown. I really hope people get a chance to see it.
