Afraid of the Dark

A madman is attacking blind people in their homes, and a small boy with fading eyesight begins his own secret investigation into the brutal assaults. When he finally identifies the monster responsible for the chilling crimes, he finds himself face to face with something that everybody understands... the fear of the unknown. Academy Award-winner Mark Peploe (screenwriter of The Last Emperor) delivers a terrifying and haunting psychological tale in which all of the frightening circumstances of childhood, both real and imagined, are heightened to extremes.
