Fear

Running time: 82 mins

All dreams are black and white.

?Spiders' legs brushing against naked skin. Unexplained noises in the dark. A hypodermic needle getting closer and closer. A dead thing trapped in a bottle of formaldehyde. A growling dog running and on the hunt. A big empty house creaking.?

In Fears(s) of the Dark, six renowned graphic artists realize their own personal nightmares in vivid detail devoid of all color. Each artist brings a unique perspective on a personal phobia that is drawn, painted, or sketched with brilliant clarity. While the uniquely stylized art gives Fear(s) of the Dark its character, it is the storytelling that is paramount and captures the wildly surreal atmosphere of each dream. Through their collective effort, the artists have created a film that proves to be both visually rewarding and terrifying at the same time.
