Directed by John Weaver. Who the hell is John Weaver - I guess I should watch the credits more often.
I didn't care much for this episode. Despite the 'significance' of all that was happening and the implications, I think it lacked in all areas - acting, writing, etc. It was a very different Dark Shadows. Well, maybe not 'very' but as I stated, it was lacking. I didn't give a damn about anyone or what was happening to them.
There was one interesting tidbit relating to a character - Stokes saying he never believed in miracles but somehow does now (or something to that effect).
All the other characters were pretty much full of shit. If it wasn't out and out lies (Willie) it was inconceivable outpourings of emotion (Carolyn). Julia pretty much stayed true to form but Hall over did it, and the writing didn't help.
The end shot, zooming in on Julia's calves and feet was one for the books.
