By Guest Writer | Tuesday, May 8, 2012 | 1 Comment

UPDATE 5/14/2012: Congrats to Grand Prize Winner: ChimeTea! Congrats also to the five runner up winners: Lien M, Sand Lopez, Dean N, Simon Tam, Stephen Nettles!

For the last few years, vampires have been officially in. And the trend hasn’t excluded Asians and Asian Americans. From Maggie Q in Priest to Ken Jeong in Vampires Suck, vampires and the APA community have been linked together. And now, with the new Johnny Depp film Dark Shadows, directed by Tim Burton, being released on May 11th, six lucky readers will have the chance to win a Dark Shadows prize package!

poster1 300x443 Giveaway: Dark Shadows Prize PackageIn the year 1752, Joshua and Naomi Collins, with young son Barnabas, set sail from Liverpool, England to start a new life in America. But even an ocean was not enough to escape the mysterious curse that has plagued their family. Two decades pass and Barnabas (Johnny Depp) has the world at his feet—or at least the town of Collinsport, Maine. The master of Collinwood Manor, Barnabas is rich, powerful and an inveterate playboy…until he makes the grave mistake of breaking the heart of Angelique Bouchard (Eva Green). A witch, in every sense of the word, Angelique dooms him to a fate worse than death: turning him into a vampire, and then burying him alive.

Two centuries later, Barnabas is inadvertently freed from his tomb and emerges into the very changed world of 1972. He returns to Collinwood Manor to find that his once-grand estate has fallen into ruin. The dysfunctional remnants of the Collins family have fared little better, each harboring their own dark secrets. Matriarch Elizabeth Collins Stoddard (Michelle Pfeiffer) has called upon live-in psychiatrist, Dr. Julia Hoffman (Helena Bonham Carter), to help with her family troubles.

Also residing in the manor is Elizabeth’s ne’er-do-well brother, Roger Collins, (Jonny Lee Miller); her rebellious teenage daughter Carolyn Stoddard (Chloe Moretz); and Roger’s precocious 10-year-old son, David Collins (Gulliver McGrath). The mystery extends beyond the family, to caretaker Willie Loomis, played by Jackie Earle Haley, and David’s new nanny, Victoria Winters, played by Bella Heathcote.
