Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

Closed Film and TV threads

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Dark Shadows trailer: [link]

Hmmm. I expected a fair amount of camp, but that's ... a LOT of camp. Dammit, Tim, this was supposed to be creepy and gothic, not constant 70s camp. I hope it's just the tone of the trailer, and not the movie.

Dear Hammer Studios, now that you've made The Woman In Black, make a vampire movie like that. Please?

No, that's a comedy, Jilli. There's no way that's just the trailer.

They do still have a window of time in which they could make a vampire movie and cast Christopher Lee in it.

Oh, dear. I'm so sorry, Jilli. So now Hollywood has decided that camp can't just ruin comic book movies, it has to ruin horror too?

Because books.

It seems like a combination of Love at First Bite and The Addams Family, or something. Really not what I expected.

Oh well, at least he's not constantly going back re-edit crappy stuff into The Nightmare Before Christmas and Beetlejuice

I hope it's as good as Addams Family Values.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I don't know what to think about that trailer. I'm much less interested in DS than I was.

That performance by Johnny looked rather like his performance in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

I expect a similar tone.

I hadn't though of that, what a terrifying idea.

I KNOW. C'mon Hammer, you know you want to!
