Wouldn't exactly say it's what you're missing.
More likely, they're missing the concept that a family tree has branches.

Hold the presses... Jermaine Jackson is an artist?
Since when does being a money sucking waste of space qualify you for that title?

I bought the BluRay the day it came available and didn't regret it.
Yeah, it wasn't "Dark Shadows" classic, or even "Dark Shadows: The ABC reboot" ... but you can tell that Burton is unequivocally,undeniably a dyed in the wool, card carrying DS Fan-boy.
The source material got sifted through the Burton consciousness, and there were some completely Burton moments, however all in all, IMHO the film worked.
Now Depp as Tonto... that's kinda sorta got me worried.

Honestly, I've said for years that the only way Hillary will ever see the Presidency is as a widow. Bill as the First Husband?
Ain't gonna happen.
However another scenario does come to mind. With what is it, 4? SCOTUS Justices over the age of 72, Obama has the potential to stack the Supreme Court.
SCOTUS Justice Clinton, anyone?

History lesson here:
(And my teacher thought I wasn't paying attention in those classes at Famous Witch U... HA!)
Historically, Samhain represented the final harvest of the year. What you didn't get in from the fields by then was left there for the Gods/Spirits/Nature.
Additionally it was seen as the time when the Rule of the year transitioned from the Goddess to the God, and when the Veil between the Worlds was at it's thinnest, allowing one to offer a final goodbye to a loved one who had passed in the year previous.
With the growth and expansion of Xianity, slowly this celebration took on macabre overtones that persist to this day ... the thinning of the Veil became "a night when monsters walk" - a sharing of bounty became "trick or treat" .
As you can see, the Gods of the Old become the demons of the New.
