This made me feel unbearably old. Chloe Moretz looks like a freaking woman already. Pretty sure I did NOT look like that when I was 14-15

Anyone expecting a completely dark, serious movie should go elsewhere. It wouldn’t be Dark Shadows if it wasn’t campy!

I have to defer to my Dark Shadows expert (Ms. Blig) on this one and have given the choice between “all in good fun” and “ruinous sacrilege”. (waiting) While she had hoped for a somewhat more serious treatment (this was a major childhood influence), it looks like I have a date (in clown white and sunglasses) for 5/11.

This looks like a perfect amalgam of all of Burton’s styles. It seems as though I’m going to LOVE it.
