House of Dark Shadows runs over a similar storyline but Curtis called it an alternate timeline - one in which Barnabas stayed bad (though he is not redeemed at the point this set ends).<br /><br />re the new film, I am looking forward to it, though I recognise that I might be in a minority, however we shall see. Being Burton it'll either be brilliant or really bad (I tend to polarise in my opinion of his films).Taliesin_ttlghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105263634442191232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-75251080523522769832012-05-08T17:52:09.727-07:002012-05-08T17:52:09.727-07:00Thanks for the review Taliesin

Would you agree?<br /><br />£16 seems quite reasonable for this, I think I will add it to my collection. Though watching this in addition to the other versions I own will possibly add to my frustration over what Burton has done with the franchise adding his "Beetlejuice" camp to it. Sigh.Gabrielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11124957599257011611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-45709789086437416262012-05-08T16:41:55.456-07:002012-05-08T16:41:55.456-07:00So glad to see a Dark Shadows review before the im...So glad to see a Dark Shadows review before the impending release of the film! Great review as usual. I feel you on your frustration with this. I've seen some of that same season of the show and it is quite gothic and fun, but leaving on a cliffhanger like that is just frustrating. I'm determined that one of these days I'll set about watching the entire series, but as I suppose it will take at least a year of my life to get through the whole thing, I am not in any hurry to do it! Thanks for another excellent review! Can't wait to see what you think of the Burton take on it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06677605637257952349noreply@blogger.com
