Salem's Lot Should Be In Theaters

In Stephen King's Salem's Lot, "an author returns to his hometown to write about an abandoned mansion in the small town. As he discovers the home has been bought by a mysterious man from Europe, the man also realizes that townspeople are slowly being turned into vampires. The writer bands together with a ragtag group to stop the spread of vampires, with the final confrontation happening in the house with the mysterious man." It is widely regarded as one of King's best novels, and fans have been hoping for a theatrical remake for quite some time. King himself has always said that he thinks that the novel is ripe for a remake, and what better time than now, with Hollywood being enamored with the writer's works all over again?

What an absolute joke that Warner Bros. has kept this film from releasing for so long. That trailer does an excellent job selling itself and would have been a perfect release for this Halloween, especially after Universal moved Wolf Man to January. This LOOKS like a theatrical release, and it is a damn shame that we are stuck just watching it on Max.

Salem's Lot will be released on Max on October 3rd.
