Movie Book Roundup: Dark Shadows The Visual Companion

dark shadows book cover

` Tim Burton’s latest slice of morbid nostalgia Frankenweenie is currently riding high on a wave of critical praise and tracing the themes and hand of Burton through his filmography is an easy and enjoyable task. The art and design of his films is, without exception, a huge draw for many of the director’s fans [...]

Dark Shadows - Michelle Pfeiffer Poster

We’ve had Tim Burton and Helena Bonham Carter interviews over the past couple of days and now it’s time to hear from Michelle Pfeiffer and Chloe Moretz on their thoughts of the movie. Pfeiffer plays Elizabeth Collins Stoddard and admits to James Kleinmann who conducted the interview that she was ‘obsessed’ with the TV show [...]




“I’m at the Heart of the Dysfunction” – Helena Bonham Carter talks Dark Shadows

Helena Bonham Carter Dark Shadows Interview

One of the few good things about Tim Burton’s latest vamp’n’camp melodrama Dark Shadows is Helena Bonham Carter’s marvellous lush/pschiatrist Dr. Julia Hoffman. As the live-in/drink-dry carer for the Collins family’s youngest child Hoffman isn’t given too much to do as the film lurches into its second half but initially her deadpan delivery is pitched [...]




Dark Shadows Interview: Director Tim Burton

Tim Burton - Dark Shadows

Our friend James Kleinmann chats with legendary Director Tim Burton about his new movie, Dark Shadows which is in cinemas now. James and Tim chat about how the idea for the movie first came along and when Burton saw the show back on TV all those years ago. They talk about what parts of the [...]




The HeyUGuys Cinema Release Round-up : 11th May

cinema-screen-220x150

As expected, American Pie: Reunion had a solid first week at the box office but didn’t trouble the all-conquering Avengers at the top of the cinematic pile. Truth be told I don’t see anything getting near the Marvel epic for another week or so yet either. It smashed the opening weekend box office record set [...]




Michelle Pfeiffer Gives Her Thoughts on Anne Hathaway as Catwoman at the Dark Shadows Premiere

Dark Shadows banner

Covering movie premieres can be a bit hit and miss affair, particularly one where just about every outlet in Europe is on the press line, competing for time with the talent. Usually we do quite well, grabbing quotes from some of the major players, as well as the directors or producers. Last night, we weren’t [...]




Dark Shadows Review

Dark Shadows poster 2

Dark Shadows brings together the familiar union of Tim Burton, Johnny Depp and my increasing concern about my waning interest in the partnership. I believe that the actor and director are destined to collaborate just as Tarantino and Samuel L. Jackson or Scorsese and DiCaprio will continue to work together, however this latest film is [...]

With only a week left to go until Tim Burton’s latest film, Dark Shadows, enters our cinemas, we’re heading into the final stretch of the marketing campaign that has been successfully teasing the gothic aesthetic Burton is of course best known for.

Dark Shadows poster 4

Warner Bros. have just released this brand new UK trailer for their new movie, Dark Shadows which is directed by Tim Burton which then by default means it stars Johnny Depp and Helene Bonham Carter. The trailer seems to be a little lighter than the previous versions that we’ve seen and I like what I [...]

Dark Shadows Johnny Depp

After another new TV spot for Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows surfaced this morning, we now have a new image of Johnny Depp as Barnabas Collins, a two-hundred-year-old vampire, looking rather refined.

Another TV Spot Illuminates Dark Shadows a Little More

dark shadows logo

Another thirty second dose of Tim Burton’s forthcoming Dark Shadows and along with the obligatory teethbrusing in the mirror moment there’s a little bit of new footage thrown in for good measure. Most of us here in the UK will be unfamiliar with soap operatics which spawned this one, and yes – it’s a TB [...]

After the first trailer for Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows arrived earlier this month, we’ve since seen two brilliant sets of nine character posters introducing us to all of the main characters we can look forward to seeing in a month and a half’s time.

Tim Burton’s highly anticipated follow-up to 2010’s billion-dollar-grossing Alice in Wonderland is now just over a month away from coming to the big screen, and we got our first full look at the film earlier this month when the first trailer debuted. We then got a great set of character posters of each of the [...]




Does This New TV Spot Shed any Light on Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows?

Dark Shadows poster 2

Two days ago Tim Burton was presented with the Legend award at the Jameson Empire awards and I managed to sit down with the man for a few minutes to talk about his work and we ended up discussing his latest, Dark Shadows. The problem was that I was almost entirely bladdered on the free [...]

Dark Shadows poster 2

After the first trailer for Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows finally surfaced last week to a great reception, it only seems right that we’re getting the film’s first posters tonight, in the form of nine brilliant, colourful, and also pale character posters. Just like the character banner that we saw last week ahead of the trailer, [...]




Hollywood Unhinged – Why Tim Burton loves Gothic gloom

Johnny Depp in Dark Shadows

On Dark Shadows, Johnny Depp and skeletons with bowler hats. Tim Burton’s latest offering, Dark Shadows, comes out in May and the new trailer suggests a sprinkling of comedy amongst the usual doses of pasty skin and Gothic gloom. Based on a TV show few have heard of, Burton’s surprised no-one by re-teaming with Johnny [...]




New Dark Shadows Trailer adds Alice Cooper’s Cameo

Johnny Depp in Dark Shadows

We got our first full-length trailer for Tim Burton’s latest offering, Dark Shadows, at the end of last week, promising a return to the gothic for which we know and love Burton. A new trailer has now surfaced online, and whilst it’s essentially the same, it adds to the end a new scene in which [...]

If you, like me, were surprised at how much you enjoyed the trailer for Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows then it may be because it appears that Burton is finally returning to the promise of his earlier works and has created another fun slice of gothic pie for us all to enjoy. The trailer (if you’ve [...]




Dark Shadows Trailer Arrives

johnny-depp-dark-shadows

The first trailer for Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows has appeared, appropriately, on the stroke of midnight and it’s a very interesting glimpse at  Tim Burton’s latest gothic oddity. While it’s tonally a little uncertain there are some great lines and there’s a Beetlejuice/The Frightners feeling to the whole shebang which can only be a good [...]




Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows gets a Colourful New Banner & Trailer Lands Midnight Tonight

Tim Burton’s next film, Dark Shadows, is less than two months away from its release, and just yesterday we had two brilliant little snippets of footage ahead of the first trailer.
