DARK SHADOWS 643

Image
  DARK SHADOWS  643 Louis. Once more the narration goes to pains to tell us that something new is happening: a new reign of terror is about to begin.   Chris vs Carolyn, who’s guessed that maybe the curse has to do with Chris. She wants to know why he stopped the séance. Chris, “I do not know why. I stopped the séance.”    She asks, “You don’t know?”    Chris felt he had to do it, “I don’t know why.”   “Chris, I don’t understand it.”   “Neither do I.”   No reprise. She wonders who it was that came through her, who Magda was. Chris, “I don’t know.” She wonders. “Do we have to talk about THAT!!!”    Carolyn says no but then feels Magda is still in the room.       Amy goes to David and wakes him up in his room in his bed. David comically covers his face with his blanket, briefly. “What do you want?”     NOTE: when Amy first enters the room, we see a large globe under the win...

DARK SHADOWS 642

  DARK SHADOWS  642 “The house seems so gloomy tonight. Or maybe it’s just me. That poor girl at the Blue Whale.”   Nancy . We hear the narration tell us about the Widow’s Wailing and how the widows rise from the dead and wait for the one who will die. The exciting sequence on the hill is ruined by a loud “OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” that seems to come from…whom? Liz? Vicki? Stokes? Then we resume the tension as Vicki wants to jump. Liz wants to go to her but Stokes holds her back for fear that it may cause Vicki to go over.   NOTE: Thayer David does elevate the show BUT....Stokes… last   episode and this one, he is seriously ()(&^ing me off.   First, he goes to the room where Vicki is against Liz's wishes. He avoids talking to her directly and mentions how it gets darker earlier this time of year. Then, he explains he cannot make her travel in time and he can't help her. Downstairs, he told Liz he could. When Vicki explains she wants herbs to ...

DARK SHADOWS 641

 DARK SHADOWS 641 641 Joan. The narration mentions a neighboring village. WHAT? Has there been another murder in a neighboring village? I always thought the TOWN of Collinsport is where the Blue Whale was. What is this stuff about a village? Then it seems to say that the Blue Whale is NOT in Collinsport and in a neighboring village.     Or MAYBE, neighboring to Collinwood. BUT isn’t Collinwood a part of the village?   WTF? A body was found in the Blue Whale? WHAT again---as this seems to make it sound as if the person were killed far away and put in the Blue Whale? The entire narration seems like a flub.       Amy wakes up in bed, screaming. She thinks something happened to her brother. Vicki comes in and then Liz.   Needless to say, NO reprise.   Amy says, “I don’t know what’s happened to him.”   She says he’s too big to cry like he did in her dream. Vicki tells her no one is---that’ll help, thanks there, Vi...
