Dark Shadows (2012)
#1
Okay some major memory issues here.  I remember enjoying the original show but I can't remember a thing about it.  I was 2 when it premiered.  Then I saw part of this on a flight but I didn't finish it.  I think I fell asleep.  Or the plane landed.  Anyway, I remembered none of either so it didn't really matter.

Great cast - Depp, Pfeiffer, Johnny Lee Miller, Chloe Grace Moretz, Eva Green, Christopher Lee, Alice Cooper and HP1 - Bellatrix. Kinda dumb tho. Predictable.  Depp hams it up like always, in heavy vampire make-up. Bellatrix is almost unrecognizable with an American accent. Pfeiffer was a matronly ice queen.  Both Lees were underused.  Moretz was the rebel teen and had some of the best lines.  Green was really good vamping it up as a witch.  Alice is only a forced cameo, which almost works but doesn't.  Some okay effects, cheesey stuff really.  Stacy laughed a lot, but she was tired and some stuff just struck her as funny, plus she likes Depp like I like Lynda/Charlize/Taylor/Shakira/Margot/etc.  

No sword fights.  Not DOOM recommended.
