DARK SHADOWS

This 2012 movie was a pale remake of the original gothic soap opera series – and considering how pale Jonathan Frid’s Barnabas Collins was in the original TV show, that’s saying something. But though Johnny Depp plays a more comic and silent-movie version of Barnabas, this remake is worth watching because of the villainess, played by Eva Green of Penny Dreadful. She not only looks completely different here, she acts completely different.
