Dark Shadows Bloopers

Buy This Item Dark Shadows Bloopers by Mpi Home Video  Available from Amazon  $14.98  on 11-16-2008     It seems that most of the main cast has made a blooper during their time on the live soap opera "Dark Shadows" (1966-1971). As the videobox says, "Dark Shadows was videotaped virtually live without stopping the camera". "Modern videotape editing was not yet commonly available". See the entire cast in their most embarassing moments and under pressure of live videotaping, Lara Parker, Jonathan Frid, Grayson Hall, Joan Bennett, Nancy Barrett, Louis Edmonds, Kathryn Leigh Scott, John Karlen, David Selby, Kate Jackson, Jim Storm, Roger Davis, Christopher Pennock, David Henesy and others. Bloopers you will see are the crew in the way, actors flubbing lines, forgetting lines, doors that close by themselves, actors that hit their heads in the doorway, television cameras in the way, boomers in the scene, "Hollywood" instead of Collinwood, actor's trip on something, the fly that insists to be in scenes and bother the actors, good ad-libbing, bad ad-libbing, problems with props, candles that re-light and blow out mysteriously, trees that wobble, earrings that fall off, noises off camera (the crew not being quiet), terrible camera shots and moving sets and sets that fall apart. This tape is only 40 minutes long. My favorite bloopers: Lara Parker when she says "Hollywood. I never imagined that I'd see it", and the orange bottle that shattered by touching it before the actor could use it to pretend to hit the actor in a fight. Reader Reviews Very disappointing...would of been better if maybe Jonathan Frid or another cast member had narratored the mishaps for us. Some of the bloopers are not apparent and have to be pointed out with a little white arrow (boring) and we are just subjected to one scene after another. The outtakes are also disappointing - most of them are of the actors or a stage hand holding the number slate.
