Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - This movie has very little to offer.
I purchased this video quite cheaply (ex-rental), thinking that the cover looked quite nice. And it was nice, if you can't see very well, but the movie is trash. I can handle B-grade, I sometimes even enjoy a good B romp (ie. 'The Driller Killer' is a classic example of how entertaining the genre can be), but this was just bland bland bland. Incredibly dull scenes were broken up too sparsely by wholesome cheap scares and not very entertaining dream horror sequences. This movie has very little to ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark
I too saw this movie as a youngster during the 70's and I found it quite terrifying and had nightmares about it. The part of the movie that I found completely terrorizing is when the little demons began dragging Sally down into the cellar with them. As an adult I wanted to see the movie again, but I couldn't remember the title. Thank goodness for the Internet! I purchased a copy of the movie and it is still just as terrifying today as it was during the 70's. This was one of the best 70's made ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I get chills just thinking about this movie
I saw this movie when i was 10, i am now 43. I will never watch this movie again. It scarred me for life, and i love horror movies! I had to sleep with the lights on for months after i saw this film...Believe the reviews, this is truly creepy and disturbing.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - ONE OF THE BEST TV MOVIES EVER MADE! WHERE IS THE DVD?
This movie....a TV movie at that! Is one of the creepiest little films from that time period. It is certainly one of the best TV movie ever made and the little humanoid demons are unforgettable. Sally......Sally we're coming for you Sally! I do own this movie and I have seen it recently,so I deduct 1 star because the acting is below average by some of the actors. I would love to have it on an official DVD release. This and Bad Ronald should be released on DVD!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Top of the Made for TV Cannon
When people discuss scary made for TV movies, four are always mentioned: Night Stalker (1972), Duel (1971), Trilogy of Terror (1975), and Don't be Afraid of the Dark. ABC's Movie of the Week was working hard to draw viewers from NBC and CBS in the early 70's, and it worked. Many of the ABC TV flicks were high quality. Of course, the budgets were very low. But imaginations ran high, and talented filmmakers like Dan Curtis, Steven Speilberg and John Newland (One Step Beyond) decided to make a name ... Read More
