I'll bet Dan Curtis was in hog heaven over this episode.
alwaysdavid, that is the perfect commentary on this episode.
DS made her demise look much more pleasant that it would actually be.
That statement troubles me unreasonably. I think if it were about a blooper, I would accept it, but since it is about something that was deliberately done on the show, I can't. In the Dark Shadows universe, Mrs. Trask died in the way we saw her died. If she didn't, the whole thing falls down like a house of cards. But I wish to reserve the right to retract this statement of mine at any time in the future, because I suspect it may be wrong.
And Judith gets chomped. Futile, I know, but before he bared the fangs I kept hoping she'd grab something off the mantle and bop him with it and run. One would think she has a coachman outside within screaming range for her to run to.
Yeah, I was thinking how strong and courageous she was when she was scolding Dirk, and then she went all wimpy and started begging. Sad.
