I would imagine your parents wouldn't have been thrilled by Night of Dark Shadows, either, what with: (Spoilers galore for those who would be spoiled)
[spoiler]**Quentin attempting to rape, then drown, his nice new wife, while cheating on her with a floozy ghost dressed only in the Sexy Nightgown of Death, and somehow finding time to paint the world's UGLIEST pictures !
(Which non-talent he inherited from an adulterous ancestor. He also inherited the house--- and the ancestor's girlfriend.)
**A truly un-PC portrayal of a mentally-challenged psychopath caretaker who ALSO tries to rape the nice young wife, has road-rage issues, and is the exploited boy-toy of the floozy ghost in the Sexy Nightgown of Death, with his own aunt as pimp !
**It is implied the aunt's previous incarnation was under the unwholesome influence of the floozy ghost when she was a LIVING floozy.
It's clear the adult version has a fixation on the ghost, chock-full of kinky subtexts.
**The artist's best friend gets some unwanted succubus attention when the floozy ghost tries to smother him with the Sexy Nightgown of Death.
**The nice young wife has to help kill the Special Ed-psycho caretaker.
**Floozy Ghost wins the whole shebang, everyone ends up dead, and all without EVER changing out of the Sexy Nightgown of Death. Nihilistic bummer, or what?[/spoiler]
Now, mind you, I LIKE this film better than the other, but all the sexual violence was creepier than the ketchup-blood spurting in HoDS, because, darn it, stuff like that DOES happen every day.
Maybe it's just as well DS was off the air when this was released. The people who protested HoDS might have stormed the studio !
