i first saw this one when it was first shown and so i am not too objective about it. it really managed to scare me and partly because it was so late at night and but partly because of that whole feeling from a videotaped suspense story (the same thing that helped dark shadows itself). and the casting was so right. i hardly know shane briant from anything else and so it might not be so right to call him well cast and but to me and he is dorian gray. and as far as the other male actors and the one who fit his part so well was nigel davenport (who so good at larger than life characters) as sir henry. and john karlen and a sort of dan curtis repertory player at the time and because of dark shadows. as one poster points out and this version manages to include the involvements with men and in a fairly subtle way. the scene where dorian recites a list of men names to john karlen character and as a way of blackmailing him and and the look on karlen face and were very well done. (if that scene were done now and it would probably be done in a too obvious way and and be bad by comparison. ) i saw it when dorian gray was barely a name to me and let alone more and so even more than the famous 1945 version (which is rightly famous) and this is the version to me.

Judge the movie review above, you need to make a function call:
    If you feel the movie review is positive
        print "This is a semantically positive review."
    Otherwise, if you feel the movie review is negative
        print "This is a semantically negative review."
