Fear(s) of the Dark / Peur(s) du Noir
(2007, various directors, 85 mins, France, NR)
Six graphic artists present their visions of terror in Fear(s) of The Dark, an omnibus of atmospheric black-and-white animation with clever episodes tied together under the artistic direction of Etienne Robial. While the segments generate more psychological fear than overt gore, each displays a fertile imagination influenced by a breathtaking range of sources, from Japanese anime to printmaker Felix Vallotton. Pan’s Labyrinth director Guillermo del Toro praised the film’s “razor-sharp images that will slice your eye and nest there forever.” In French with English subtitles.
