‘Salem’s Lot by Stephen King
Hollywood really loves a Stephen King adaptation, and so do fans. King’s 1975 vampire novel has already gotten the big and small-screen treatment in ways that are variously tied to the story—the 1979 miniseries directed by Tobe Hooper (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Poltergeist) remains a cult favorite—but it’s such a good yarn you can see why a new film is percolating. Directed by It and Conjuring universe veteran Gary Dauberman and produced by horror titan James Wan, Salem’s Lot has had its release date bounced around a bit, but should be arriving on screens before too long.
