Trailer Review - Dark Shadows




Dark Shadows
1st Trailer


Person of Interest: A deliberately stiff and funny Johnny Depp, a vengeful and sexual frustrated Eva Green, an annoyed Chloe Moretz, and Michelle Pfeiffer as the requisite drinking matriarch.

Scene Pop: One hell of a room-destroying fling between Depp and Green.

Briggs Breakdown: Four seventies songs, one wrecked television, one shattered disco ball, one pink (?) explosion of a canning factory, and rampant sexual themes.

Effective?: Yes, especially as a broad comedy.

Check it Out?: A possibility. As seen through its trailer and commented on by many others, it looks like Burton is remaking Beetlejuice, except having a ton more sexual attitude to match up with its based upon soap opera. I never watched anything from the original television show but you can tell it won't be absolute faithful. Still, it does looks like fun.
