Dark Shadows

Went to watch Dark Shadows today.

Johnny Depp is obviously the main highlight of the movie though other actors and actresses do well too. The story is quite a good one where the Barnabas (played by Depp) rejects a girl that loves him. The bad part is that she is a witch and thus, she makes his lover and family die. If that wasn't bad enough, she even turned him into a vampire and bury him alive. About 200 years later, Barnabas escapes from the coffin and visits his family descendants while trying to revive their house and company. Being 200 years outdated, he doesn't really get used to the current year around him. To make matters worse, the wicked witch is still around and the love-hate feeling towards him still continues.

At first, it may seem like a horror movie. But not quite as this could be also considered as a comedy. Funny scenes are played throughout the movie. The downside is it might take a little time to understand the story and characters. Otherwise, it is quite a decent movie with vampire, witch, werewolf, ghost in it.

Yea vampires need to keep their teeth clean too you know.

8.2/10
