  • Dark Shadows costume designer Colleen Atwood has spoken to The Hollywood Reporter about working with original Barnabas Jonathan Frid last summer: "It was a big trip for him...

I want to know why the movie web site keeps using the term Victorian. The 18th century was before Queen Victoria's reign. Sorry to nitpick :p

@wanderingshadow It's NOT nitpicking! I find it annoying as well because it implies that the marketing people didn't do much research. I think Barnabas is supposed to be from 1752 in the movie which is 85 years before Victoria became queen. He'd be a Georgian LOL

The DARK SHADOWS Movie Website looks stunning, fantastic and will venture back! Yes, Actress Ms. Eva Green/Angelique was on the Jimmy Kimmel Show last night/May 2nd and by surprise I found out she's a twin and she's the daughter of fame Actress Marlene Jobert & her father is a Dentist. How cool! They show the DS's trailer clip of her and Barnabas having heated words before she chained him in his box/casket so to speak. smile! Looking forward to DARK SHADOWS hitting the big screen (again!) May 11th, 2012.
