Enjoyed the film:Scary and Funny

Rating: 9/10 (24 May 2012)

I saw the film the second week in May,when it came out. And I thought it was great. I liked this one better than Tim Burton's last two films. Anybody going to see this film keep an open mind (especially the die-hard Dark Shadows fans) that THIS IS NOT A DRAMA. It is a Dramady. Which is of course part drama/comedy. This film did have it's moments though. Like the climatic ending. And I know there has to be deleted scenes. I'm sure they will be shown on the DVD's.
The musical score by Danny Elfman was excellent. Including all the 70's music. The Carpenter's song, "On Top Of The World", went well with one of the funny scenes. Also the appearance of Alice Cooper added to the rock and roll feel of it.
All in all the cast was great, special effects, etc.
