Dark Shadows: Episode 1245 (1971)

Theatrical Release Information  |  See Details About All Versions

Bramwell (Jonathan Frid) and Catherine (Lara Parker) survive their night in the dreaded room, and in the process defeat the ghost of Brutus Collins (Louis Edmonds) and break the family curse. But upon emerging from the room, the couple faces death at the hands of Morgan (Keith Prentice), whose hands are stayed by Kendrick (John Karlen). Recovering from her madness, Melanie (Nancy Barrett) leaves Collinwood with Kendrick, and Bramwell and Catherine likewise go off together. A satisfying denouement for all, except Morgan, who dies, and possibly Melanie, whose neck bears a set of all-too-familiar red marks. And thus, with several plot strands left dangling and with the cast still locked into the "Parallel Time" version of 1841, did the five-year saga of Dark Shadows come to an abrupt end on April 2, 1971. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
