TV, stage and film actor Phillip R. Allen, who guest starred in a single episode of DS as a cop in 1970 PT who questioned Cyrus about the whereabouts of John Yaeger, passed away this month.  Allen's obit in today's NY Times.

A few of MB's screen caps from his episode:




With thanks to Kosmo.

There was a notice I saw just now saying that they are going to make Pierson's segment available as a downloadable or streamable podcast on the site, http://www.cultradioagogo.com.

Cult Radio A-Go-Go's DS segment and interview with Pierson is now available for download at http://www.sendspace.com/file/b62i3n

Welcome back, Barnababy!  The discussion is in the topic "Re: (**MORE FABULOUS PHOTOS!! Replies #2519 and #2522**) Depp/Burton DARK SHADOWS Is In Production!!" now on this same board.  Currently, it's contained in at least the last 10 pages.

[spoiler]they don't even bother to explain why now Quentin changes into the werewolf and can even speak and conciously control himself while he does so.[/spoiler]

That one is quite the head-scratcher.

Good to see you posting again, Maggie Babe and hornet!

Count me among the (smallish?) group that was excited by the trailer.  I think it looks like great fun.

Angelique says, "Love me!" and I do-- everything about her:  Her looks, her moods, that car, and the one movie scene that I've anticipated the most-- her spell, which we now know includes a blonde lock added to a bubbling cauldron.  Eva Green is amazing.

Hopefully the bathroom mirror scene will go.  Please?

So why shouldn't the next incarnation of DS be a departure? It could be wonderful.

Agreed!!

If you can't get the issue of Hero Complex at or around the Convention (I believe it begins Friday and runs through Sunday), additional copies are going to be available in several comic outlets.  That's according to the LA Times.

We've gone way off topic with the discussion of the comedic elements in the linked story turning into a general discussion about Dan Curtis' vision.  This thread is for Movie Spoilers.

Sorry if I upset you and Midnite by posting the link, MB.  I didn't think the spoilers were all that much beyond what is stated in the official synopsis released long ago by TPTB, but perhaps you've even avoided reading that.  I seem to lack the faculty for being spoilt--or even understanding what is meant by "spoiler," and I do try to play it safe here.

A nondisclosure agreement includes all information that isn't publicly known at the time of disclosure, so "all that much beyond," while it might not seem like a big deal to a casual reader, IS a violation, and I did learn that there are indeed details in the report on aintitcool.com that constitute a violation of the confidentiality agreement.  (Many thanks to ProfStokes for cleverly avoiding the issue with her careful choice of YouTube clips.)  I understand your frustration, Gothick, but we're stepping into legal territory with any report that violates the NDA, so while we don't police off-site links, please understand the position of MB and myself when we seek to prevent the discussion of them here.  Thanks.
