So to start this post off, I'm going to let you know that I am a sucker for old world gothic architecture. Movies like Clue and Dark Shadows totally feed my love for that lost art of home decor. So I found an article from the set designer of the movie; and they had pictures of the Collins Castle from the movie!
Here they are:
Pretty dark (as is the setting of the movie, I mean come on, it's Tim Burton!) But good grief wouldn't that look marvelous with a few open windows and sunshine on a spring day??
And I also found some movie stills (thanks to Pinterest)
Overall if you're a Tim Burton fan you must see this movie. My husband wasn't a huge fan of the movie, and he's not much in to Tim Burton, so it wasn't quite his cup of tea. The movie has a sense of seriousness to it with just enough humor and awkward moments to keep you laughing all the way through. You find yourself rooting for this poor vampire who is blissfully ignorant to the new settings of modern day around him.
I say go see the movie. It's funny. And good grief Johnny Depp is the leading actor! What more of a reason do you need to go see this??
xo,
Chelsea
