I didn't see it

Yes that's right. I didn't see this movie, and I never will!!! How dare Burton the Bastard make a comedy about Dark Shadows! I grew up watching the Dark Shadows series, and was so very excited to hear that a Dark Shadows movie was being made. I always dreamed what the series would have been like, if only it would have had a decent budget.
The sad thing is, this should have been so easy. This movie should have been a Gothic thriller with vampires, witches, ghosts, and goblins. Instead, Burton the Bastard turned one of my greatest childhood memories into a steaming piece of dung.
Dark Shadows was not a comedy. In fact, the series never had one remotely funny moment in it. It was a serious horror drama about a family that was cursed.
Instead of making this movie, why didn't Burton the Bastard just buy every Dark Shadows the Series DVD, and spit on them? It would have been more respectful, and less disappointing.
