Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Eights sets in, and these "Dark Shadows" episodes a still a lot of fun. In addition, they're now fun for all the right reasons, as 85% of the flubbed lines and messed-up camera shots are now gone. There's still the occasional chuckle-inducing missed line or crazy camera shot, but these mostly polished shows (I guess practice makes perfect) now allow you to get truly immersed in the tragic tale of Barnabas and the witch Cassandra, and all the various supporting characters. And we haven't even gotten to Quentin Collins, the "evil hand" storyline, and all the other great stuff I remember seeing as a kid. So, yes, I'm still onboard for the rest of these sets.
I only hope that when all these sets are out, they'll finally release the first 200 or so Barnabas-less episodes of the series. They can package them all in one set and call it "Dark Shadows Collection Zero". That way it'll fit nicely just to the left of Collection One on my shelf.
