Interview with the Vampire to Twilight to The Vampire Diaries
Synopsis
An author returns to his hometown of Jerusalem's Lot in search of inspiration for his next book, only to discover that the townspeople are being attacked by a bloodthirsty vampire.. Writer Gary Dauberman told Den of Geek in June 2019 that his goal with the new version of Salem's Lot is to make vampires frightening again. When Ben is reading old newspapers on microfilm in the library, a headline reads "Local Couple Victims of DUI". The paper was supposedly printed in 1956, at a time when the term "DUI" was not yet in use..
That is the testament of King's work

First of all, I have to say that even when a Stephen King adaptation is weak, at least it's still watchable. This movie is lucky to be a King movie.With that said, it's very mediocre.
But every aspect of of the story evolving is abandoned
In the beginning of the movie I was very excited, everything liked good, the atmosphere of unease was there and it felt very King. Pretty fast we get to a point where people have just vanished from the town. It happens so quickly and the remaining people just "know" the cause is vampires. They also seem to know instantly who the main vampire is and it makes no sense.
Also, no gore
I've seen incredibly bad horror movies in my life and this isn't bad, it's just too quick. In the moving vampire. Shame.If this had been an 8 to 10 episode mini series, it would have worked. The elements are there.
The cast is there
I do have to give credit for sticking with the source material, it shows that the creators did have an understanding of what they are working with.. Looking for something different to add to your Watchlist? Take a peek at what movies and TV shows are coming to streaming this month.
