Dark Shadows

Johnny Depp has totally redeemed himself after the catastrophic Rum Diary.

This film is great! How could it not be, when it is directed by Tim Burton, with Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Eva Green...
The story goes as such: Barnabas Collins is the son of a wealthy Englishman who has gone to the newly colonised America to build a big fishing empire. Barnabas has the bad luck of playing with the feelings of a witch who curses him and his family. She transforms him into a vampire and later turns the town against him to bury him alive for eternity.

This was all in the 18th century. 200 years later (well, 196), in 1972, he manages to get out. What he finds is a world he does not understand and which does not understand him. He also finds his family and company in ruins and the witch that did that to him.

This film is hilarious in many levels, from intelligent humour, silly humour and details. I have loved it. Johnny Depp is impecable as a stiff, colonial-speaking vampire and the dialogues are witty and very well carried out. Also, Eva Green is haaawt in this film!

9/10 for this great film!

Do not miss it!!
