故事简介：Peur（s）du noir / Fears of the Dark《暗夜恐惧》

《暗夜恐惧》召集8位艺术家、以黑白简约画风讲述了一个个关于恐惧的故事。故事发生在维多利亚时代，一个笑容邪恶的男人牵着4头恶犬招摇过市，他最大的乐趣就是看着它们将无辜人们撕成碎片；男孩来到沼泽地度过他的暑假，渐渐的他发现他周围的人们一个个消失了；一个日本小姑娘备受噩梦的折磨（颇有伊藤润二的风格）；几只诡异而充满魔力的虫子闯入了一个害羞的男孩的生活，从而将他引向噩梦般的旅程（卡夫卡式的臆想混合着大卫·柯南伯格式的视觉风格，让人眩晕）……女人孤独的旁白将这8个故事串起。8位艺术家或从死亡的诗作、或从童年记忆与噩梦幻觉中获得灵感，创从而造了这部视觉风格奇诡的“怪谈录”。电影更是融合了多种画风，从炭笔绘画到简略的flash，有的线条庞杂柔美，有的带着强烈几何造型感、风格硬朗。

Synopsis：

Spiders' legs brushing against naked skin…Unexplainable noises heard at night in a dark bedroom…A big empty house where you feel a presence…A hypodermic needle getting closer and closer…A dead thing trapped in a bottle of formaldehyde…
Note on the film: Children are afraid of the dark but many adults also are! Darkness prevents from seeing, and we can then persuade ourselves that we are surrounded by beasts, insects or any other malevolent creature. In colloquial language, we talk about "dark ideas", "living in dark misery" or "having dark premonitions"…This feeling of uneasiness can be traced back to the mists of time. Blutch, Charles Burns, Marie Caillou, Pierre di Sciullo, Jerry Kramsky, Lorenzo Mattotti, Richard McGuire, Michel Pirus, Romain Slocombe, went back to the origins of their terrors and agreed to animate their drawings and inspire them, each one in his unique style, with the rhythm of their nightmares.
