Dark Shadows (DinosaursRoar's Version)

Dark Shadows (DinosaursRoar's Version) is a 2012 American musical horror comedy film that is an alternate version of the Tim Burton's version, with Barnabas being truly evil and the main antagonist instead of vice versa. Despite this, the film recieved 89% postive reviews from dylanuses, common humans, hunchbacks, phantoms, and other sapient species and beings, except vampires (who gave the film negative reviews over making Barnabas the vampire pure evil).

Plot
In 1760, the Collins family moves from Liverpool, England to Maine and establishes the fishing town Collinsport, where they built their estate, Collinwood.

When he first arrives, the young son Barnabas (Johny Depp), meets the young Angelique Bouchard (Eva Green), who instantly became a love interest for Barnabas. Angelique's witch mother who was with her at that time warned her of socialising with people of noble birth, since her mother thought noble people were awful people who torture the innocent (even though this isn't true). This, however, did not stop Angelique from following the family for many years, hoping to be loved by Barnabas, but to no avail.

By 1776, Barnabas, now a grown man, falls in love with a young woman named Josette du Pres (Bella Heathcote), scorning Angelique's witch mother who was now working as a maid in his household. Turning to black magic, Angelique's mother curses the Collins family, first turning his mom and dad into hideous giant 17 ft tall trolls that prey on humans and were killed off by troll hunters. Then by enchanting Josette to leap to her death off a cliff called Widow's Hill. In a fit of grief, Barnabas attempts to leap to his own death but fails, as Angelique's mother curses him to the immortal life of an evil vampire. When he still rejects her advances, she turns the townspeople (including Angelique herself, who mistook Barnabas as a vampire for an monsterous outsider) against him, and he is buried alive in a coffin.

In 2017 (that is, 241 years later), a young dylanus named Dylan Hooton was looking for a home to live in since he lost his home due to a forest fire that killed his family. He is then greeted by Collinwood's new owner and current reclusive matriarch, Elizabeth Collins Stoddard, who then accepts Dylan's invitation and welcomed him as a new member of her family. Her nephew David (Gulliver McGrath), for whom Dylan will be caring, believes his mother, who drowned in a boating accident, still visits him. Dylan does not divulge that since he, too, can see ghosts.

After meeting with David, his live-in psychiatrist Julia Hoffman (Helena Bonham Carter), his father Roger (Jonny Lee Miller), and Elizabeth's two daughters, one being an adapted sweetheart Victoria Winters (aka Maggie Evans) (Bella Heathcote) and the rebellious Carolyn (Chloë Grace Moretz), Dylan is now an adapted member of the house. Two months later, during one night, Dylan and Victoria sees the ghost of Josette, who warns that "he's coming" before disappearing after falling from a chandelier, leaving Dylan confused.

That night, Dylan was having a nightmare, where he comes near a fireplace, he then saw Barnabas's arm and Dylan saw a painting of Barnabas, which matched exactly like Barnabas himself. He then noticed Barnabas doing a loud evil laughter as Dylan ran away in fear. He ran into his own room with Barnabas stuck outside, but Dylan saw a coffin in his room and when he looked out his reflection in his mirror, his reflection disappeared and when he touched and felt himself, he was a vampire, but fortunately, he woke up and realized it was just a bad dream.

The next morning, Dylan was shaking in fear on a nightmare he had last night.
