Dark Shadows


How could you not love Dark Shadows!

Johnny Depp plays a wealthy man who pretty much runs the town who broke a womans heart. Unfortunately for him that woman happened to be a witch and she cursed him to become a vampire then buried him alive in 1752. Fast forward 2 centuries and Barnabus is accidentally released from his casket and set free in 1972. He returns to his family home to find what is left of the Collins family desperately needing his help. Together they come up with a plan to get the family back on track and the family company back up and running.

With a stellar cast this movie is sure to thrill all age groups. Winning awards in the kids choice awards as well an award for the film music it is bound to please most people.

Of course what would a Tim Burton film be without his gorgeous wife in it. Helena Bonham Carter, as we know if definitely one of my favorite actresses and she always plays her role perfectly. She is the live in psychiatrist for the Collins family and adds that little bit extra into the mix of weird and crazy that this movie is so full of.

A perfect example of how funny this movie is and how out of place Barabus Collins is in the new world.

Finally Barnabus has a fling with the woman who turned him into a vampire and this is the wake of their destruction. Probably one of the funniest scenes I have seen.

Did you like Dark Shadows? I personally like the dark humor in any of the Tim Burton movies and Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter really make the movie.
