Check out: Dark Shadows - My Obligatory October Horror Post
I particularly love this section:
Lines are forgotten, mike booms and cameras sometimes get into shots and impenetrable brick walls often shudder when touched. Re-shooting scenes was an expense the producers were not able or willing to incur, but I'm a firm believer that bad special effects do not ruin good stories. Dark Shadows is a cracking good story.
Exactly! And if only more people who write about DS could see past the occasional bloopers to grasp that the real attraction of DS has always been the story.
