 Classic December 16, 2008

Dark Shadows The Beginning collection 4--Before Barabas Collins--Its more a Gothic type romance heading towards the Supernatural--Louis Edmounds as Roger Collins shines.
 more Dark Shadows fun December 6, 2008
H. Dougherty (Tennessee, USA)
Although the original fascination of seeing my childhood memories spring to life on the screen has somewhat faded, the interesting storyline still has me hooked. What will happen with David? Why is Sam's painting taking such a strange turn? Poor Victoria is uncertain about her past. It's still fun to watch.

Rising From The Shadows September 15, 2008

Here's where it starts to get GOOD! In this volume of the 60s gothic horror soap, the show finally stops dancing around the subject and embraces the supernatural. In the process the show saves itself and starts to lay the groundwork for its cult popularity. Two characters emerge here--the ghost of Josette Collins and Laura Collins, The Phoenix--both of whom will be pivotal in future storylines. While this volume also deals with some of the show's primary (and plodding) non-supernatural plots, you'll see the show's lively side with colorful characters such as the deranged caretaker and the aforementioned deliciously evil Laura. Along the way you'll see the show experiment more with special effects. After this there's no turning back.

Love it............. if you are a Dark Shadows Fan... this is a MUST. This is the part where David Collins mother shows up in the always twisting story lines. Highly recommend this video collection.

THe Pheonix episodes are some of my favorites of the pre-Barnabus DS. I am not sure if this set will include the final episode of the Pheonix storyline, but that whole plot benefitted greatly by the enormous acting talents of one ten year old actor named David Hennesy. That finale where he runs from the burning cottage and into Victoria's arms, sobbing and screaming---and you realize it was videotaped LIVE and only ONCE! The actors did not have a chance at retakes. And there were several times througout the run of the show when one of the adults messed up (or he messed up) and his quickness on his feet saved the day. Incredible little actor!
I would like it if the box sets had more than 4 discs. I think they should double the discs and episodes and add maybe $10 to the price. Or maybe use both sides of the discs. After all there were more than 1,100 episodes of this series. I wonder how many discs it will take to do the whole thing?
