Description: When the cult TV series of the late 60’s “Dark shadows” was at the peak of popularity, one of its authors conceived of the full-length version of the events of the series. For was based on the story of vampire Barnabas Collins. A couple of years the project was being developed, while the Studio MGM has decided to launch the film in production or not.

In search of ancient treasures handyman Willie Loomis opens a hidden tomb in the family tomb of the family of Collins and reluctantly releases of vampire Barnabas Collins, after a century and a half of imprisonment. Barnabas represented the family of a distant relative and settled on the estate, where she meets a girl similar to his former lover. Meanwhile, in the village continue to find dead people with strange bites on the neck…

The film Dark Shadows was popular in its time due to the popularity of the series, as well as the shooting of the film and series were carried out almost simultaneously. But given that the story is taken from the series, then it will be more understandable to those familiar with serial UPS and downs. So in the movie there is no prologue, and the action begins as if the viewer is familiar with the characters, so the authors do not bother to explain who is who and what is its place in the plot. It all looks not only unclear, but also terribly boring. Not on hand plays a serial manner filming of the movie, the plot somewhere chasing, setting a fast pace in the series.

Now everything in the movie looks like a cheap production about vampires, which in the past, and now, rivet whole bunch. Boring, bland and uninteresting. Except that fans of the original series will be interesting.
