Melbourne, June 16 : While actress Katie Holmes is all set to arrive in Melbourne for an eight-week shoot for Don''t Be Afraid of the Dark, extreme measures are being taken to lock down the set of the Australian film.

Tight security arrangements were made on the Docklands studios set of the film to ensure that Holmes might enjoy some privacy away from the world''s inquisitive media.

Media personnel are now expected to descend on the southern capital.

Miramax, the film backer, has revealed that security will be increased when the wife of `Mission Impossible' star Tom Cruise arrives for the film's shooting.

According to reports, the production company has booked out all of the sound stages at the studio complex to prevent any leaks from the set.

"Please keep in mind as of now it''s going to be a closed set," the Daily Telegraph quoted Miramax Film''s Senior VP of international publicity Lawrence Angrisani as saying.

Amid reports about the security crackdown, rumours have started to circulate that Holmes will be joined by Cruise and daughter Suri during her stay.

Based on a 1973 TV movie, Don''t Be Afraid of the Dark revolves around a girl who moves in with her father and girlfriend to find that they share the house with some devilish monsters. (ANI)
