I'd like to share some good news regarding two movies that have been discussed on the forum in the past because of comparisons posters made with Dark Shadows themes ...

"The Innocents" will be released on DVD on September 6 by Fox Home Entertainment at a very low price, and discounted 30 percent by amazon.  This is the original film based on "The Turn of the Screw" directed by Jack Clayton and starring Deborah Kerr as the ghost-plagued governess.  The story, based on a short novel by major American literary figure Henry James, was later produced on video by Dan Curtis Productions and also served as the inspiration behind the governess-discovers-the-children-are-possessed-by-ghosts-of-dead-servants story lines on DS.

Second, although this is farther afield, I wanted to note that "The Eye of the Devil," also starring Deborah Kerr and featuring two children apparently influenced by dark forces, set in a southern France chateau, will screen on Turner Classic Movies on July 20.  The movie was directed by Oscar-winning director J. Lee Thompson.

Thanks for the return-welcoming words, dears ... I hope to find more time for Dark Shadows and dsboards again ... but don't think I'll quite equal my most active posting days of yore!

According to TVguidedot com, Eye of the Devil will air Wednesday, July 20th at 5:30pm.

Interesting, usually when you click on a movie or show, (on tvguide), it will give you a brief synopsis of it (including run time, actors, etc).

When I clicked on Eye of the Devil, it said, it is not in our database ???
