DARK SHADOWS 594

  DARK SHADOWS 594 “Carolyn was dead. And now she’s alive. How is that possible? How?”     Humbert. THE SAME STILL of the house! Argh!   As Barnabas prepares to tell all, I noticed a long scratch on the doors.   Carolyn asks why he is staring at her like that and if he can speak. He nods no. That’s as funny as DS can get! I think. He comes in and says, “It’s impossible,”   but last time he thought maybe Julia had it wrong, that she was not dead. She asks what’s impossible.     She tells him she only fainted. He wonders what they will do now and she says, “I don’t know.”     Barnabas leaves and has a voice over. “She…she’s alive. How is it possible?”       Blair acts like a TOMORROW PERSON some six or seven years too early as he tells Adam, “I have special powers.”     This is how Carolyn is alive.   Adam: “I don’t understand your powers.”     He will supply...

 DARK SHADOWS   593 “If I ever get out of here, the whole world is going to know what Barnabas is.”   “Carolyn Stoddard was involved in the experiment and she died.”   “Died?”   “Yes  and now Adam will go to Collinwood to destroy the family.”     KLS. Long and different reprise. Slightly different dialog. When Barnabas hits the staircase this time, it shakes. Different musical cues at times (Julia seeing Carolyn gone). New material after reprise. Julia actually comes downstairs   Julia, at the bed, calls to Barnabas.   Julia actually comes downstairs after calling to him and then the theme music and opening.     She tells him what happened.

The narration says time passes and we get THE SAME still of the house from THE SAME angle. The sound effects are different in the reprise. The shots are different slightly. Barnabas licks his lips here. Julia gets an IDK. Barnabas says to Adam, “You may really may have something to worry about.” What?   One piece of equipment says Palm Springs , California .   The waves on the screen are different.   The opening is 3:43 seconds.   Barnabas says, “IDU.”     Julia prepares a shot and gives it to Carolyn and when she does not react, Julia says, “I don’t understand it.”   Barnabas flubs. Adam takes Carolyn upstairs.     NOTE: Adam is really annoying me here. This is all his fault and he keeps blaming Barnabas an...
