Dark Shadows (trailer)

Are we sure this is a Tim Burton flick? Is it not perhaps a Shawn Levy movie that’s been mislabeled? Cuz this is pretty much my reaction, too:

Eyes widened in horror, blood drained from my face, a sickly pallor overtaking me… Really? Lava lamps and disco balls? The vampire! He’s all invisible

even when he’s brushing his fangs!

*facepalm*

How can we make Tim Burton stop? Why does he appear to feel an urgency to remake stuff and turn it bizarre and creepily unfunny? Has he been more successful in blocking out Charlie and the Chocolate Factory than the rest of us have?
