A great story! Before P C culture with heavy social messages and forced characters which dilutes a good story there is old movies which are closer to the book. Salem's Lot has many old time characters, and behaviors which reminds us of old small time stories mixed with a Vampire take is interesting. The real life style stories make the a horror movie more believable when the supernatural takes over. The character driven story has an author and horror movie fan face the Vampires. Of course King always has writer as the hero, a bit of personal influence there. Will the author face his fear of the house of evil? Even the aged Salem's Lot is still entertaining, which shows a good story ages well. 7 stars.
