60 of 186 · most liked firstJust saw SINNERS. Move over Lost Boys, Dusk Till Dawn, Salem's Lot, Near Dark, Dracula, 30 Days of Night, Let The Right One In, etc. all. What a phenomenal film. Deserves to be seen in theaters with a good sound system. Don't wait for streaming.
unlabelledView post →Finally caught up with the new SALEM'S LOT and... I can't understand how they made a film by hollowing out the entire center of its own narrative. It's like they shot the logline and character descriptions instead of a script. It's more proof of concept than coherent piece. I wonder what happened.
unlabelledView post →Watching Salem's Lot since it's on Criterion Channel. Being a small town priest in a horror movie has to feel like getting called up to play varsity.
unlabelledView post →Little 1bit horror practice! Been a little demotivated from last few months of current events to make anything horror related but I thought I do the last scene in a movie that actually creeped me out which was the boy floating in the window in Salem's Lot(1979) #1bit #pixelart #horror
unlabelledView post →Happy 45th anniversary to my personal favourite Vampire story of all time, Tobe Hooper's truly chilling movie/mini series adaptation of Stephen King's novel "Salem's Lot". 🖤🦇⚰️🩸🪦
unlabelledView post →What if a bunch of Fangoria and metal obsessed teens in 1993 Kansas made a DIY remake of Salem's Lot with their friends? Well, you'd get the greatest movie of all time. You'd get Leif Jonker's Darkness. Enjoy. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1r3aMn5YNvfdr5HVdv29SuKp8zIyw8Ac4/view?usp=sharing

unlabelledView post →I've never been an adaptational purist. I don't think there's anything to be gained or learned from comparing a movie to a book and whining about the differences. But when you cut maybe the most meaningful scene in a work like 'Salem's Lot, you better have something real good to go in its place!
unlabelledView post →I'm seriously excited about Arrow's new release of SALEM'S LOT. It's a gorgeous print with terrific extras. Plus, I got to write an essay on the film and vampire lore. Arrow's releases are the best, so it's always a pleasure working with them.
unlabelledView post →Been watching through some Tobe Hooper movies I haven't seen in the first few days of the new year and I'm fond of MORTUARY. A horror movie for kids about the horrible creeping rot of small town America. SALEM'S LOT is about the same thing & so is POLTERGEIST & TEXAS CHAINSAW & oh you get the idea
unlabelledView post →"Bart Simpsons Dracula" is without a doubt the best Treehouse of Horror Segment ever done. Every line is an absolute banger, it's got brilliant jokes every second and the crazy amount of vampire movie references from Coppola's Dracula to Salem's Lot are clearly done with a lot of love of the genre.
unlabelledView post →annual rewatch of Midnight Mass and yes it's been said to death but it really is the best version of Salem's Lot committed to film.

unlabelledView post →Some people would call the Sheriff in Salem's Lot a coward, but I call him the smartest character in the film.
unlabelledView post →June Havoc, who appeared in this movie as a child, appeared almost 70 years later in A Return to Salem's Lot (1987) with a young Tara Reid. I can't imagine that a lot of other actors have appeared in a movie with both Harold Lloyd and Tara Reid
unlabelledView post →Pausing in the middle of the Max SALEM'S LOT and this is shot and written like someone actually gives a shit about it?! Gorgeously shot and great atmosphere. And for once, my god i wish a movie had an extra hour. It deserves it.
unlabelledView post →You know what would be nice? Just fucking make the book SALEM'S LOT into a movie. Directors and screenwriters, you're not half as clever as you think you are. That story is fucking stretched TAUT. Just a note: I enjoy Hooper's version, of course (but the limitations of TV). The rest are garbage.
unlabelledView post →Bloober Team’s THE MEDIUM is the next horror game to make the leap to the big screen; Salem's Lot director Gary Dauberman’s label Coin Operated has picked up the film rights.
unlabelledView post →Seriously. Just make a SALEM'S LOT movie that follows the basics of the book's narrative. It is INFINITELY BETTER than your "flourishes", directors and screenwriters. Jeez.
unlabelledView post →Larry Cohen is a perpetual artistic delight and I am over the moon to read his autobiography. A movie opinion I have with which virtually no one agrees is that his weird, rambling, leisurely, idiosyncratic sequel to 1979's Salem Lot adaptation is better than the 1979 Salem's Lot adaptation.
unlabelledView post →Picking a (not so) random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Year 2, Day #281 "Salem's Lot" (Tobe Hooper/1979) For a 2 part TV mini series that aired on CBS, this one is incredibly creepy and filled with atmosphere. Tobe Hooper was on a roll for awhile there. Check it out.
unlabelledView post →Drop a movie that traumatized you as a kid...🖤😬 Salem's Lot. I rewatched this last year with my husband and teenage son, and THEY LAUGHED.
unlabelledView post →Salem's Lot at around 9 years old. Big mistake. The TV movie came out a year or so later and I had imagined such horrors from the book that I could not look at the movie. Nothing has ever scared me so much.

unlabelledView post →The next six months will define the future of vampire movies after years of box office flops. > After a disappointing few years, the vampire sub-genre of horror is at a crossroads with three high-profile movies on the horizon in Nosferatu, Salem's Lot, and Sinners. Vampire movies have evolved over the years, ranging from the gothic horror of Bela Lugosi's Dracula, to the fantasy romance of Twilight. In recent years, there have been a slew of satirical vampire projects, including highly-rated TV…
unlabelledView post →SALEM'S LOT (1979) is such a warm and beautiful film. That it operates in a completely different tenor as TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE and yet presents many of the same critiques of America is a testament to Hooper's incredible skill as a director and as a director of actors. The cast is perfect.

unlabelledView post →Salem’s Lot Review: This Vampire Movie Could’ve Been Great, But Horror Fans Will Love It Anyway. At this moment, it's hard to disconnect the new Salem's Lot from its nearly two-year release delay, during which many feared the film would never, ahem, see the light of day. That's an unfortunate situation. On the one hand, it clearly didn't deserve to sit on the shelf for so long, caught up in the leadership change at Warner Bros. On the other, it doesn't quite live up to the expectations that…

unlabelledView post →James Wan's vampire movie watchlist. James Wan is a horror director and co-creator of the Saw, Insidious, and Conjuring franchises. He was also executive producer on the Salem's Lot remake for (HBO) Max. In an attempt to hype up the release for Salem's Lot, he posted this watchlist of vampire movies. And honestly... it's really good. There are a lot of obvious classics but also some great obscure choices as well.
