Dark Shadows – where?

While Johnny Depp is a natural, his excellent comic timing needs to be used in the right places, and movies! A rather obnoxious profile of a vampire’s life, Dark Shadows is a vain attempt by Depp (unfortunately! he’s quite a relish on screen otherwise) to essay a blood + libido thirsty vampire.

The canvas leaves you spell-bound though, its old England – has to be WOW!

Dark Shadows scores with its background – eerie, scary, flirtatious – the right concoction, however – one would not want to watch a vampire and a witch make out now, while the guitars go tanaaooooo (rather loud) – that’s spooky :/ The plot dips in chunks, makes you wonder….now what are all these people gunning for? The objective is quite unclear I would say… save thy nets l his roots l vengeance… so we witness shades of his characters, and it’s just tooooo funny to watch a vampire get chained by his (worst) half, while he erupts out of bonds which he’s locked in for yearrssssss…  hindi pikcharrrrr this?!      

And then you have the divas Michelle Pfeiffer, Eva Green – these ladies set the screen ablaze with their stellar act!! Jai ho, mahilao ki :p

Net-net, masala pikchar hai yeh, grab that super-expensive L L tub of caramel popcorn and runnnn to your closest multiplex (no you should not download this from DC++, PS: Mahavir Apts)
