I\u2019m not a Tim Burton fan. As in I\u2019ve so far enjoyed watching a total of 4 of his films: Batman, Batman Returns, Big Fish (my absolute favorite among them all) and Edward Scissorhands. Burton typically goes too cartoon-like- to the point where his humor and the relatability of the characters get lost on me.<\/p>\n

Loving only half of Johnny Depp movies (the ones I don\u2019t like are often directed by Tim Burton- the dude does wear pretty much anything Tim Burton gives him<\/a>), I wasn\u2019t all that excited about Dark Shadows\u2026That was until I watched the hilarious trailer<\/a>. If the movie is anything like it, it looks like I\u2019m going to have one hell of a good time watching it .<\/p>\n

Of course I don\u2019t mind one bit that Michelle Pfeiffer is among the cast \u2013 I\u2019ve liked a lot of her movies so far (Wolf, Tequila Sunrise, Hairspray<\/a>, Stardust<\/a>, Up Close & Personal<\/a> to name a few.)<\/p>\n

Dark Shadows Plot<\/strong><\/p>\n

A witch (Eva Green)<\/a> curses the playboy Barnabas Collins (Johnny Depp) he is in love with, and turns him to a vampire, and then buries him alive. When he is accidentally woken up over 200 years later, it is the 70s and hilarity ensues he has to get used to all the new technology, the witch doing her best to seduce him, the state of the family business and the family members. Oh, and then there is the 70s fashion\u2026<\/p>\n
