Make Your Own Trailer With These Cool New ‘Dark Shadows’ Pics!

Published

*Update: Images removed at the request of Warner Bros. Pictures.

Even more images from Dark Shadows have emerged, and I have to say these are some of my favorites. It’s nice getting a better look at Michelle Pfeiffer, Eva Green and Chloe Grace Moretz. What we still don’t have? A trailer that indicates if this film has the campy lilt in its step that’s been missing from Burton’s recent work.

The story focuses on Barnabas Collins, who was transformed into a vampire by his jilted lover, Angelique, way back in the 1700s and buried. He’s just been dug up, and attempts to reintegrate with his descendants, led by Michelle Pfeiffer’s Elizabeth and Jonny Lee Miller’s Roger – despite the fact that Angelique is still around and still not in a forgiving mood.

Directed by Tim Burton, the adaptation of the TV soap hits theaters May 11, 2012. That really does make it seriously weird that there isn’t a trailer yet. Though we do have almost enough images to cut our own!

Hit the jump to check out the pics from Cine Marcado! IMAGES UNFORTUNATELY REMOVED AT WARNER BROS. PICTURES’ REQUEST.

The classic murder-mystery game Clue is headed back to screens both big and small, with Variety reporting this week that Sony is planning potential film and television adaptations.

Variety reports, “Hasbro Entertainment has closed a deal with Sony‘s TriStar Pictures and Sony Pictures Television for the film and TV rights for the beloved board game.”

“Sony is the perfect partner to adapt a property as culturally impactful and mystery-defining as ‘Clue,’” said Hasbro’s Zev Foreman and Gabriel Marano. “Nicole Brown, Katherine Pope, and their teams are tremendous creative collaborators and ideal partners to help us figure out after 75 years if it was Colonel Mustard in the conservatory with the candlestick.”

Clue was created way back in 1943 by Anthony E. Pratt, and the board game was of course notably turned into a feature film starring Tim Curry in 1985 and a mini-series in 2011.

Ryan Reynolds had more recently been attached to star in a remake for 20th Century Studios, while Fox Entertainment had been developing an animated series a few years back.
