	Encyclopedia: Dan Curtis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Dan came back to the locker room after the angle, and was summarily bitched out by Montoya and I. Apparently an agreement was made with Malcolm and the ICW boys ahead of time to run an angle after that match to set up an upcoming ICW show.
		Dan Curtis is best known as the producer of the cult favorite TV serial Dark Shadows, which featured probably the second most famous vampire character in popular culture.
		Curtis got this idea from his own Dark Shadows series, but prior to that, the "reincarnated love" idea was the central motif of the horror classic The Mummy in the 1930's, which probably picked it up in turn from H. Rider Haggard's classic novel She.

		Dan testified that while it can be difficult at times to locate an open weight station (especially weekends in some areas) a driver should call Respondent's office where they would look through their directory for an open station.
		Curtis testified the reason that he did not obtain a weight ticket for Flock was that the pickup was Satur- day and delivery was Sunday and there were no scales (where he could get a signature as well as a weight) in the areas that he was traveling.
		Curtis testified that at this meeting Dan told him and Smith that there was no way a union would get into his shop, that he would fire em- ployees active for the Union and would close his doors rather than deal with a union.

	My Time With Dan - Page One
		Dan told me he was involved with a promotion called the CWF, and was interested in trying to bring me in.
		Following Dan's directions, we came to the Wayne Ford Civic League, and laughed that it was yet another wrestling venue that doubled as a Bingo hall.
		It was at this point that Dan, Adam, and the others were to get on the stick and declare war on the east coast crew, and challenge us to bring more boys with us in November to take them all on.

	Science Fiction Weekly Interview
		Curtis: My favorite story is when Victoria Winters (Alexandra Moltke) goes into the past and we find out how Barnabas Collins (Jonathan Frid) became a vampire, the whole Angelique (Parker) story and the cursing him and all that whole business.
		Curtis: I had turned the show supernatural and I was going to see how far I could go with it in terms of how much the audience was going to buy it.
		Curtis: We had ourselves a hand puppet and another puppet that had a rod stuck up its ass and was held up above the floor.

		Curtis and two others representing the Ashland Fire Department -- Marty Burns, who is retired, and his nephew, Kelly -- made the trek to Regina, Saskatchewan, last month and mined enough medals to blanket the chest of a proud war hero.
		Curtis and his brother, Barry, and Barry's wife, Sue, made the trip on motorcycles.
		The event organizers had overlooked Curtis, so when his second match came around, he was the only one who stood between Williamson and their age-bracket's gold medal.

	IGN: Featured Filmmaker: Dan Curtis
		Already uncomfortable in front of the camera, Curtis was faced with the problem of a leading man who really didn't want to spend the extra time in front of the camera.
		Curtis was eager to move on after five years of producing a continuing drama and the stories were showing a lack of direction.
		Curtis had a number of projects he wanted to work on but one stood out, a telefilm based on a then-unpublished story by author Jeff Rice about a newspaper reporter tracking a vampire in Las Vegas.

	Dan Curtis' Dracula, Jack Palance, Dan Curtis Productions 1973
		Curtis felt that this gave Dracula a stronger motivation for coming to England, as well as making him a more complex character: sympathetic as well as monstrous.
		Anyway, as Curtis points out, the 90's film Bram Stoker's Dracula appropriated this same lost-love idea (as well as the emphasis on the historical Dracula and even the original title of this film, which clearly states "Bram Stoker's Dracula" in the opening credits).
		Inevitably, as he is dispatched by the heroes, Dracula is transformed into a figure of pity, and the stately painting behind him, along with the martial music, suggests a warrior slain in battle rather than merely a monster who has been destroyed.

	Blogger: Email Post to a Friend
		In August 1975, director Dan Curtis, who had brought Dark Shadows and many other tales of Gothic horror to television and the cinema, filmed Burnt Offerings from a script which Curtis co-wrote with frequent collaborator William F. Nolan (Logan’s Run).
		Also, Curtis exchanges novelist Marasco’s more nebulous, abstract ending for a cinematic conclusion which is a cross between the climaxes of Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (1960) and Curtis’s own Night of Dark Shadows (1971).
		Dan Curtis’s film does not have the vampires of House of Dark Shadows or the ghost of Night of Dark Shadows, but it does have atmosphere because of its distinctive lighting and its low-angle camera shots.

	www.Vampire-World.com - Movie Reviews: "Dracula", Dan Curtis, 1974
		In principle, Dan Curtis and his author Richard Matheson stick to the novel by Bram Stoker, leaving out some scenes and adding others.
		Dan Curtis was the first one to bring in the historical model Vlad Tepes and 19 years later, Francis Ford Coppola was to follow his example when shooting "Bram Stokers Dracula".
		This and the fact that to many fans of the genre this movie seemed to be too old-fashioned and not bloody enough made Dan Curtis "Dracula" sink into oblivion.

	BURNT OFFERINGS - DVD
		A feature-length commentary by Curtis, co-screenwriter with Curtis, William F. Nolan, and Black reveals Curtis to be doddering, Black to be sort of dingy but kind, and Nolan to be gruff.
		Curtis reveals that his rationale for the fog machine was to be able to shoot "motes," Black coos over Burgess Meredith in a way irritating and unbecoming, and Nolan pushes both to remember Davis as an insecure old grandmotherly figure searching for approval.
		Curtis confesses that he had already shot multiple establishing shots in 'scope before becoming insecure about his ability to fill the widescreen frame.

	Fanzing 5 - April 1998 - An Evening With Dan Curtis Johnson
		Dan was kind enough to talk with us about CHASE, its lead character, his break into the industry…and a few glimpses of what's to come!
		I found it somewhat ironic that in your CHRONOS review you mentioned how unlikely Gabriel Walker is, and that he needs some redeeming qualities-- Cameron Chase was actually conceived originally as a somewhat unlikeable person as well, but we softened her up pretty quickly.
		At this point in the interview, I was intrigued that Dan had gotten a job with one of the big two companies without years of working in independents.

		Curtis went on to make the television horror genre his own.
		Curtis even used Claude Akins as the sheriff, the same role he'd played in the first Kolchak film.
		By then, the mini-series format was waning and the ratings were a disappointment but Curtis still earned a well deserved Emmy for his efforts.

	Amazon.com: Dead of Night (2000) : Video (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Dan Curtis, of Dark Shadows fame, created "Dead of Night" in order to follow up on his immensely popular "Trilogy of Terror." Like "Trilogy," "Dead of Night" consists of three horror stories, and also like "Trilogy," the first two stories are only mediocre.
		Dan Curtis tried to reinvent this tale with Lysette Anthony in "Trilogy of Terror II," but the remake comes nowhere near close to capturing the dark, claustrophobic horror of the original.
		In 1975 Trilogy of Terror was a success so Dan Curtis directed this follow up although it is not as well known.

	Dark Shadows 2004: Barnabas Undead (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		There were, of course, differences of opinion between what series creator Dan Curtis may have wanted and the wishes of Mark Verheiden.
		Curtis wanted "a lengthy 1795 flashback," whereas Verheiden believed that "trying to do too much in the first half-year would be a mistake."
		This website took a lot of time and effort with no support whatsoever from Dan Curtis Productions, so obviously they wanted to continously return to the same old wells of "classic series" fans rather than try to reach out to the new.
