Master of Dark Shadows

I've loved this show for the last 7 years. I got into it in 2012, right after seeing Tim Burton's adaptation of it. I was intrigued, so I wanted to give the show a try, and I'm glad I did. I finished the whole series in 2013, and I'm now re-watching it again, and today, I finally watched this documentary.

There might be some spoilers in this review! It's absolutely wonderful and very informative about Dan Curtis and how Dark Shadows came to be. You see the kind of man he was, what inspired him to create the show, how the show was almost cancelled, how Barnabas Collins made Dark Shadows great again, all the fan mail, the peak of its popularity, appearances on game shows and parades, and Dan's work after Dark Shadows ended.

It also has some great special features, like an old episode of a 1950's show called 'The Web' where the episode has strong similarities to a story arc on the show about Elizabeth Stoddard never leaving the house, and Jason Maguire blackmailing her, and Jonathan Frid dressing up as Barnabas at the White House on Halloween 1969 for Richard Nixon's daughter! 7 years later, and this show still intrigues me!

If you absolutely love anything Dark Shadows, I highly recommend MASTER OF DARK SHADOWS!!!
