Fans of a good Tim Burton film with Johnny Depp have good reason to celebrate today, as two TV spots for his upcoming “Dark Shadows” have been released.

You can see them both attached to this blog post.

“Dark Shadows” is a loose remake of the '60s TV supernatural soap opera that Depp has been trying to bring back to life on the big screen for long.

It marks yet another collaboration in a very long line for the visionary director and his good friend, esteemed actor Depp.

This time, he plays a vampire who's come back from the dead to his home, to find out that nothing in this world is as he knew it.

He must fight to get back the family fortune and, at the same time, fend off the advances of the witch who cursed him to a life as an undead.

Check out the two clips. The film will be out in theaters on May 11.
