My Question is Why? do we really need another version? Seriously
My Question is Why? do we really need another version? Seriously
The first one is hopelessly dated and the second one was just hopeless!

i love the (1979) movie and though on bluray you can see the strings when they i forget the little brothers name is coming through the window but they had cleaned up the picture. the (2004) version i thought was well made but it was a piece of shit.
I would embrace a new adaptation of Salem's Lot, lots of potential, if there was actual talent involved in the making instead of written/directed by Gary Dauberman
So Ben Mears will be played by Lewis Pullman :

I don't know Makenzie Leigh; I only remember Spencer Treat Clark from Unbreakable (he was good in that); Bill Camp is great (his addition is a good sign).
You can't be aloof until you advertise.

Pilou Asbaek is the new Straker.
As crappy as the second one was it looks like it will have had the superior cast at this point. No disrespect to Asbaek (he was fun to watch in 'Game of Thrones') but he's no Donald Sutherland. Likewise Rutger Hauer and James Cromwell in particular are going to be hard to top.

It is obviously too late to change the format but it would have been interesting to seen this done as a three part mini-series, the film caliber of Hulu's Castle Rock, with each part named the same as in the book:
Part 1: The Marsten House
Part 2: The Emperor of Ice Cream
Part 3: The Deserted Village
The length of each episode would be dictated on what would be required to develop sthe characters and slow burn atmosphere that makes 'Salem's Lot so good.
Salem's Lot is less than 3 months away
Still no trailer, no poster, no promotional anything
And apparently they are doing some reshoots...

'Salem's Lot is kin of terribly difficult to bring to the big screen. Like a lot of King works, so much of the scare build ups take place in the minds of the characters. I mean on the face of it the premise seems kind of silly until you actually read the book and King does his magic. That subtle difference, however you want to characterize it, just doesn't make into any screen adaption. Maybe I'll be proven wrong. Here's hoping so.

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
See my 4/25/22 post. That format would afford the time necessary to fully develop the characters and the slow burn atmosphere that makes SL such a good book.
Lilja pointed out that this is the movie tie-in cover... so that's maybe the (disappointing) poster?

Theatrical Release Of Stephen King Pic ‘Salem’s Lot’ Moves From Post Labor Day To Spring 2023
The start of the fall box office just got bleaker as Warner Bros is moving New Line’s adaptation of Stephen King vampire novel Salem’s Lot from Sept. 9 to April 21, 2023. I hear the move is due to Covid-related delays in the post production realm. The Gary Dauberman-directed pic also had a handful of days of additional photography six weeks ago.
