Critic Reviews of "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark"
Nigel Floyd Time OutOctober 05, 2011There is so much here that one admires, one wishes that there was more to love.

Cory Everett The PlaylistJuly 10, 2013Completists of del Toro will want to check it out as a curio but it's hard to imagine general audiences or even horror fans finding anything here they haven't seen before.
Amy Curtis We Got This CoveredFebruary 28, 2013Guillermo del Toro's Don't Be Afraid of the Dark is as murky and ill-conceived as its multitude of dimly-lit corners,
