Salem's Lot Will Finally Be Seen
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?

I am so glad this film will finally get its day in the sun. Gary Dauberman is a genuinely nice guy, and for a while, the fear was that WB would send this film the way of Batgirl and write it off. So glad that is not the case. Setting the story back in the 70s and keeping the vibe of this book was central to the story, and it sounds like he nailed it. Hopefully, a trailer is not far behind now.
