I didn’t consciously collect five films with Bella Heathcote in them, but I’ve now watched all of them, and I’m glad I saved the worst of the lot for last. What wasted potential this one is. So many good ideas, so little done with them. :( #DarkShadows

A moment of tension when I discovered the 24/7 Dark Shadows channel was missing from PlutoTV. I just now discovered that it's been moved to "on demand." That provides some relief.

Dark Shadows is my happy place. ♥️🦇⚰️🧛‍♂️

Tubi and Philo also have some episodes.

I hope I can survive on this reconfiguration.
