Dark Shadows

This movie looks like it was done fast and with the expectation that it would not be a blockbuster.


For one there is far too much dialogue to keep anyone interested. I never saw the original television show but I would assume that it was much more interesting than this flick.

Johnny Depp plays Barnabas Collins an imprisoned vampire, who is set free and returns to his ancestral home, where his dysfunctional descendants are in need of his protection.

Whoever did the trailer should have been hired to do the movie because it had all the best scenes and it made you want to see the movie. How bad was this movie? There’s a scene where Director Tim Burton brought back Alice Cooper?! Why? The only reason I could see was that the Director sort of looks like Alice Cooper. The soundtrack of late 70’s hits was the best thing about the movie.

Verdict:

Not even Johnny Depp could save this movie. Here’s another Not Even, this movie is not even worth watching on Netflicks. So far it makes my Top Ten list of 2012 worst movies.
