The Movie
This sequel was filmed after House
of Dark Shadows (1970) and filmed while the original ABC Network
soap opera "Dark Shadows" (1966-1971) was still on television.
This film was released during the last year for the original Dark
Shadows serial.
Review
This film is my personal Dark Shadows favorite. It is the best and is
more engrossing. Kate Jackson's performance is unforgetable and Lara Parker
is so memorable in her role as "Angelique Collins" as she was
on the original tv serial.
As a child, I simply could not watch "Angelique". She gave
me goosebumps and her eyes were as if hypnotizing. But now I am an adult
(age 40). I think Miss Lara Parker is lovely. All the main cast in rhis
movie was also in the ABC Network "Dark Shadows" serial. David
Selby, Kate Jackson, Grayson Hall, John Karlen, Lara Parker, Nancy Barrett,
Jim Storm, Thayer David, Christopher Pennock, Diana Millay and Clarice
Blackburn. The plot of the film should be a surprise to all gothic movie
lovers. Quite sexy though. And you'll like Grayson Hall's 1960's dresses.
Location: Lyndhurst Estate, Tarrytown, New York overlooking the Hudson
River.
