Viewing Notes
P good for a TV movie! But 3 hours is too long! They should’ve re-cut and trimmed an hour. Because this was TV, I’m guessing it ran over two nights (2hr each night) or 4 nights/1hr per night. I’ll look it up.
Anyways, there’s A LOT of filler here to pad out that tv mini-series and I understand it’s doing justice to the book but the core of the story is the vampire and the man in black, how they are turning the townspeople and how David Soul is going to stop them. All the creepy scenes are great esp for TV. I’d love to watch a 1:45 fan edit of this movie.
