Warner Bros. Releases First Trailer for Dark Shadows



Warner Bros. Pictures presents another Tim Burton masterpiece based on a classic hit TV series.   Watch the interesting first trailer as we meet Barnabas Collins (Depp) and the unholy legion of characters of Dark Shadows.




In the year 1752, Joshua and Naomi Collins, with young son Barnabas, set sail from Liverpool, England to start a new life in America. But even an ocean was not enough to escape the mysterious curse that has plagued their family. Two decades pass and Barnabas (Johnny Depp) has the world at his feet—or at least the town of Collinsport, Maine. The master of Collinwood Manor, Barnabas is rich, powerful and an inveterate playboy…until he makes the grave mistake of breaking the heart of Angelique Bouchard (Eva Green). A witch, in every sense of the word, Angelique dooms him to a fate worse than death: turning him into a vampire, and then burying him alive.

Two centuries later, Barnabas is inadvertently freed from his tomb and emerges into the very changed world of 1972. He returns to Collinwood Manor to find that his once-grand estate has fallen into ruin. The dysfunctional remnants of the Collins family have fared little better, each harboring their own dark secrets. Matriarch Elizabeth Collins Stoddard (Michelle Pfeiffer) has called upon live-in psychiatrist, Dr. Julia Hoffman (Helena Bonham Carter), to help with her family troubles.

Also residing in the manor is Elizabeth’s ne’er-do-well brother, Roger Collins, (Jonny Lee Miller); her rebellious teenage daughter Carolyn Stoddard (Chloe Moretz); and Roger’s precocious 10-year-old son, David Collins (Gulliver McGrath). The mystery extends beyond the family, to caretaker Willie Loomis, played by Jackie Earle Haley, and David’s new nanny, Victoria Winters, played by Bella Heathcote.


Looks like Depp is finally fulfilling another bucket list since I believe this is his first vampire role. So far based on the trailer, he is quite good on playing a blood sucking monster and though the movie is obviously a comedy, I'm still hoping for a darker plot hiding beneath those campy scenes. This movie is definitely included on my list when it finally comes out later this summer.


Directed by Tim Burton, Dark Shadows is set to premiere on local cinemas on May 10 to be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
