Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love Tim Burton, The way he uses his camera angles and shots tells a story in itself. I watch movies from the editors point of view, oddly enough one of my favorite scenes is when everyone is talking at the table and you can see chloe dancing to music in the background !

"I'm not good. I'm not gentle. And I don't forgive." This is one of my favorite movie quotes ever. Having never seen the television series Dark Shadows, except in a clip here and there, I was a clean slate. It's serious, it's funny, it's hysterical. One of those movies you're not sure if it's a dramatic comedy or a comedic drama.

I've always loved Johnny Depp, a truly great actor. I grew up watching the original Dark Shadows, and Tim Burton's flick is fun and unique, Johnny Depp creating a version of Barnabas that is lovable and hysterically funny at the same time. One of the most wonderful things about this movie, is that they didn't try to just copy the original. When they tried that short lived remake with Ben Cross, all they did was make a long, drawn out rip off of the original movie, House of Dark Shadows. I love this movie.

Movie was pretty good. Good to watch the month of October

I like this movie. Wanted to add it to my collection of movies. "Madam I assure you, I am neither good nor gentle! And I do not forgive!"

While this movie is great. I purchased this particular copy because it advertises that it carried a digital copy. Well, there is none. Will be returning because Bestbuy needs to be more accurate when the list items because it is unfair for me the consumer.

Having a vague remembrance of the original TV Dark Shadows, I came to this movie with low expectations and it turned out to be pretty fun. I watched it with a fan of the old TV series and she got an even bigger kick out of it than I did. Ok ... it is dumb ... but entertaining nonetheless.

I purchased the movie at my daughter's behest, she being a fan of Tim Burton's works and not to mention Johnny Depp. I was accustomed to the daytime running series sometime ago, and I remembered how the family was "glued" to the television set, waiting to see what would happen during the next episode. The movie was in a word, GREAT! The one-liners, the 1970's setting, the action, all of it...a treat for me!

Ladies working with johnny made this film good. Tastefully done, the original series was a gold mine of strange and swirling horror mayhem. I feel the ending suited to make you remember just how weird the show truly had become.

I love the dark humor in this movie. Eva Green is a beautiful woman, and she plays the witch perfectly. If you like dark comedy movies, I recommend you to grab this movie to your collection. Great for Halloween movie night, or any night.

Being an older than most I remember watching the original TV series, but back then I did not watch every show and in the end lost interest. Now many years later this movie puts the pieces together with a twist of humor that JD brings to the screen. The movie has some over the top moments that may makes it a bit much much for kids under 13, but otherwise OK.

When I was younger they had this series on and we used to run home from school just to watch it. It had a lot of the originals characters it it like Willie and Dr. Julia Hoffman. So this movie brought back many of my childhood memories and I also enjoyed the movie. It was funny, creepy and a bit cheesy but I loved it.

This movie was great. It has a good story line, plot well done and ending was good also. Of course just about any movie that Johnny Depp is in is usually good and well written. Insanely funny in many parts, but using words that your children won't know so if they are young they miss the joke which is great. Because they are adult jokes anyways. In my opinion a must see.

We've been picking up bargain Blu-Rays waiting for 4K content and find that Best Buy has a great inventory, well organized and competitively priced. I dunno on this one-I like Johnny Depp but he's done better stuff.

Great music from the early seventies! The story line is interesting with twists and secrets!

JOHNNY DEPP'S ACTING MAKES THIS MOVIE WORTHWHILE. SEE IT TO WATCH HIM - BUT SILLY STORY. ANOTHER WEIRD ONE FROM TIM BURTON.

This film was a hoot. I liked the casting, and the way the story ran. I wasn't sure which direction the movie would take, but I was wonderfully surprised. I especially liked the vintage 70's vehicles they used. Great drive in film. Loved it!

I thought Dark Shadows was great. The blatant, eerie humor was perfect. Even so, some of the characters' stories were a bit strange and didn't make sense, but this happens a lot when a long story is squished into a short movie. Also, from what I have heard, the soap opera which this is based on, was serious, whereas the movie is a big laugh.

Delightfully cute and funny take on the classic story of Barnabas Collins. Look for the cameos of Angelique, Josette/Maggie, and Quentin - pretty cool! Great music with this good spoof too.

Having been a long time fan of the original - this was a welcome treat to watch --- Some pretty racey 'skin' sequences - so not really ment for the youngsters -- but elsewise, a fun film to watch.
