UK Premiere

Director Troy Nixey. Starring Katie Holmes, Bailee Madison, Guy Pearce, Alan Dale, Jack Thompson. Australia 2011, 100 mins.

Your worst bedtime nightmares are about to come true thanks to producer/co-writer Guillermo del Toro. Young Sally moves to Rhode Island to live with her architect father and his new girlfriend in the 19th-century mansion they are restoring. But the foreboding edifice has a dark past – something lurking within caused the destruction of artist Emerson Blackwood’s entire household a century before. Stumbling upon the mansion’s hidden basement, Sally starts hearing voices calling out from the bolted ash pit. Opening it she unwittingly unleashes creatures so terrible, so unthinkable, so scary that everyone's life – hers most of all - is placed in immediate and grave danger. Based on the acclaimed 1973 US TV movie and bearing del Toro’s distinct touch of class, director Troy Nixey explores the demonic tooth fairy myth in a tense flight of terrifying fantasy orchestrated with stylish verve, commanding atmosphere and stunning sound design.
