HOUSE of DARK SHADOWS (vhs) gothic TV series and 50 similar items

Left spine of box is slightly faded, otherwise the slipsleeve cover is in real good condition. Cassette is nice and clean with a store branded security label on the endcap and on the spine assuring you of first generation quality. Pre-viewed and played fine with a tweak of the tracking for faint static on the soundtrack. The blu-ray is Out Of Print (OOP) and the dvd is sure to follow. Forget the Depp/Burton farce, no fan wants to see their favorite TV show ruined or made fun of. This is the one that captures the essence of the 1000+ half-hour episodes. If you have never seen it, this is the series in a nutshell. If you are like me and ran home from school to catch the daily daytime drama, this will bring back some fond memories. All of the regular stars return here to recreate their roles. Released from his coffin by a handyman seeking treasure, 150 year old vampire Barnabas Collins (Jonathan Frid) avails himself of the hospitality of his descendants and moves into a house on their property. As a series of vampire attacks plauge the area, Barnabas finds himself involved with a love-smitten doctor (Grayson Hall) who wants to cure him and a young girl (Kathryn Leigh Scott) who resembles his lost love, Josette. A violent and exciting film over the soap opera. Dick Smith did the outstanding make-up that ages the Vampire 150 years in one sequence. Kathryn Leigh Scott stands out as the Hammer style vampiress. Rare, hard to find vhs version. Full screen, just as the show was, and perfect for old school tube televisions as it will fill your square frame.
