I'm sure everyone knows about WB's releasing of some classic horror titles (Val Lewton), alongside with some really crappy titles (Night of the Lepus-the infamous "killer rabbit" movie), and yet on this board there has been a growing clamor for the films based on Dark Shadows- House of Dark Shadows(1970) and Night of Dark Shadows(1971), while Warner Bros. has done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! I'm sure that George Feltenstein is more than aware of the valiant efforts to restore the 129-minute "director's cut" of Night of Dark Shadows with the full support of Dan Curtis, the surviving actors from the film, and DS fandom , and while Mr. Feltenstein has always prided himself on being a pal of film restoration, the NODS restoration is an effort that is ideal for DVD, but he has turned a blind eye to something that would endear Warner Home Video to a lot of people while releasing titles with no popularity of following at all like Lepus. What gives?
BTW, here's a link to Darren Gross' Night of Dark Shadows restoration site:
