Update: The author’s reps say that a deal is not yet done and that I have jumped the gun on this one. Stay tuned. Exclusive: Warner Bros has acquired the Robert Kolker bestselling book Lost Girls: An Unsolved American Mystery. Published by Harper, the book takes on a still unsolved case on Long Island. Kevin McCormick is producing through his Langley Park banner with Dark Shadows producer David Kennedy. Set to write is Michael Werwie, who was awarded a Nicholl Fellowship for his script Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, And Vile. That title is an apt description for this case, in which a murderer used the waterfront roadside on Long Island’s South Shore as the dumping ground for his murder victims, all of whom were escorts advertising on Craigslist and similar websites. It began with reports that a young woman named Shannan Gilbert was seen running through the upscale waterfront town of Oak Beach,...

A reluctant vampire with an irresistible allure. A mysterious ingénue, who is inexorably drawn to him. A jealous vixen, who is both seductress and sorceress. A strange family in a creepy old mansion, with secrets around every corner.
These were some of the hallmarks of a hugely popular series in the late 1960s that broke the mold of daytime television. In an era already marked by tremendous upheaval, “Dark Shadows” shook up the soap opera status quo with its unique blend of gothic mystery, romance and melodrama. Suddenly, young people were racing home from school to follow the strange twists and turns of the Collins family. Without DVRs, or even VCRs, to record missed episodes, “Dark Shadows” became the definition of “appointment television” for a generation of devoted fans, for whom it remains a cult favorite.

I’ll fully admit that I have only seen one or two episodes of the original Dark Shadows television show but I think fans of the show that were eagerly looking towards Tim Burton’s adaptation might be a bit disappointed. Burton’s film that involves Barnabas Collins (Johnny Depp) feels more like an Addams Family adaptation by using Barnabas as a comedic, man from another time element. However, since I wasn’t a faithful watcher of the original show, this trailer works for me. It looks like Burton is having fun and definitely delivering a project that seems personal.
