I, too, was horrified (no pun intended) by the campy trailers for the film. I worried that my fave soap from the Sixties had been ruined.

I ha...David Selby (Quentin Collins) has the cameo.<br /><br />I haven't seen this version yet but I'm still in the "iffy" camp.<br /><br />I'm 100% with you in the influence of the original show. I'm a sucker for vampires, time-travel,magic, reincarnation and ill-fated lovers finding one another again.<br /><br />^_^Barbara Sheridanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16136767476101027087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197317226850180051.post-16145178363435497872012-05-14T16:39:06.818-07:002012-05-14T16:39:06.818-07:00Thanks for posting this...I, too was a rabid fan o...Thanks for posting this...I, too was a rabid fan of the original series. I remember running from the bus stop to the house and usually arriving just in time to hear the haunting strains of the opening music. I even watched the remake - though to me it was never quite the same as the original. I was afraid that Burton/Depp had resorted to even higher camp than the original, but now am less reluctant to see the movie. :)Caihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04553363999931932450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197317226850180051.post-83617223978457075942012-05-14T16:37:14.866-07:002012-05-14T16:37:14.866-07:00Thanks for this - I too was afraid that Burton/Dep...Thanks for this - I too was afraid that Burton/Depp had taken one of my childhood favorites and turned it into high camp! I adored the original series and even watched the remake of the series (though not with the same fervor). After reading your review I'm less reluctant to see the movie. :)Caihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04553363999931932450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197317226850180051.post-70729582641012772652012-05-14T12:15:52.833-07:002012-05-14T12:15:52.833-07:00I want to see it for all the reasons you didn'...I want to see it for all the reasons you didn't want to see it. LOL! It looked light and amusing. I watched the original soap opera, but I really don't remember it. I've seen enough scenes now to think I probably won't like the darkness of the movie. But I keep going back and forth. Thanks so much for the review.Nina Piercehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548896481430215466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197317226850180051.post-85814764900648541432012-05-14T09:10:12.910-07:002012-05-14T09:10:12.910-07:00I'm so glad you posted about this.

My son is taking me to see the movie today for a belated Mother's Day outing, I'm going to a theatre where I can see it on the Imax. I'm so glad you liked the film. I'm looking forward to watching it today.cornelia amirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10073486581012525859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197317226850180051.post-43723417474899912442012-05-14T07:35:22.579-07:002012-05-14T07:35:22.579-07:00Absolutely great review!
