AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

marieltrokan Tobe Hooper's very memorable, very eerie and frightening adaptation Salem's Lot is a representation of a violent outrage that's an outward warmth. An external nature of gentleness is an actual nature of devastating hostility. A devastating hostility is a tranquility that's tranquil. A tranquil tranquility is a hate that's without reason. A hate that's without reason is being an external nature of gentleness.An external gentleness is a coldness that's internal. Internal is the soul, and the soul is the inexplicable. A hate that's without reason is being a hate that's without reason.A hate that's without reason, is a kindness that's logical. A kindness that's logical is a kindness that's logical. A repetition of kind logic can't be a kind logic - a kindness that's sane is forced to be unique. Logic is necessity. The necessity of kindness is dependent on uniqueness. The necessity of kindness is needlessness that's needless: the pointlessness of pointlessness is dependent on uniqueness.Pointless pointlessness is importance that has no reason. Uniqueness is the only thing that can create importance that has no reason. Inexplicable importance is the same as an unimportant explanation. Uniqueness is the only thing that can create an unimportant explanation. An explanation, is an exposure. In order for an exposure to be unimportant, a uniqueness is required. An exposure is a loss of mystery. A loss of mystery is a gain of identity. Uniqueness is the only thing that can create a gain of identity that's unimportant. A gain is a help. An identity is a distinction. A distinction that helps is a symmetry that's obstructive. In order for a destructive symmetry to be unimportant, a uniqueness is necessary. A destructive symmetry is a destruction of reality: uniqueness is the only thing that can permit a destruction of reality that's acceptable. Uniqueness isn't the destruction of reality. Uniqueness is the maintenance of reality - the maintenance of reality is the only thing that can permit the destruction of reality. Reality is destruction. The destruction of destruction can only be acceptable if given permission by the maintenance of destruction. The destruction of destruction is peace that has no reason: the maintenance of peace that has no reason needs the permission of the peace of destruction. The peace of destruction is peace that has reason - corrupt peace. Pure peace needs the permission of corrupt peace in order for pure peace to overrule corrupt peace. If corrupt peace doesn't let pure peace destroy corrupt peace, pure peace won't have the ability to live. Pure peace needs to live, but, it hasn't the corrupt heart to destroy another force without the permission of the other force. The 1979 adaptation, Salem's Lot, is a very beautiful, very peaceful and very memorable allegory about a corrupt peace (the vampire Barlow) having the decency and having the heart to sacrifice itself for the benefit of humanity

alexanderdavies-99382 It is never an easy task in adapting a Stephen King novel. His books include many details regarding plot and characters, with many intricate components. A sterling job has been done in bringing the bestselling book of "Salem's Lot" to the small screen. The mini series had to be a long one in order to include the various characters and plot details. The production also succeeded in that there is no foul language included, any sexual content is both mild and minimal and the violence serves a purpose. Regarding the fact that there were two different versions of "Salem's Lot" - one for television and one for the cinema - the only one to see, is the mini series. It has a superior narrative and a more thorough plot. In addition, the majority of the production is a flashback. David Soul plays a successful writer who returns to the town of his childhood so he can write a book based upon the notorious Marsden house. He is a man who is persecuted by an experience he had as a boy and it concerns entering the Marsden house. Soul does quite well as Benjamin Mears but James Mason gives the best performance as Straker the antiques dealer and guardian to his undead master. A plague and a wave of vampirism is about to be unleashed upon the town of Salem's Lot. The plot really warms up after about 30 minutes. Before then, all the main characters are depicted as we discover what their role in the story is. The atmosphere and suspense is well maintained throughout and looking at the location where the mini series was made, I can actually envision there being vampires roaming the countryside that surrounds Salem's Lot. There are so many great scenes. Amongst them, the scene where Lew Ayres is paid a visit at home by an undead creature of the night, children vampires stalking their prey, David Soul fending off a female vampire at the local morgue etc. As Mears, Soul displays much vulnerability and isn't exactly a "superhero" kind of character. He finds himself thrown into the position of being the hero but he isn't afraid to display his fear regarding the horrible events that take place. The ending could have been a bit better and I feel it was rushed. The Count should have come into the series a bit earlier. This is an intelligent and thought-provoking bit of television and it bears repeated viewing.

philprice-34127 This is my favourite vampire movie (t.v) of all time. Although it may look a bit dated now, the scares are still the same.Widowed writer returns to his childhood town, to write a book about a haunted house. At the same time, a mysterious duo arrive in Salem's Lot. Mr Straker and Mr Barlow.What follows, is a gradual lessening of town folk, plucked from there beds in the middle of the night.Top stuff, with maybe the scariest vampire (Barlow) of all time.Watch!

Rainey Dawn Can you believe this a made for TV movie?! This movie is awesome - extremely scary vampires in this one. These vampires are not your modern day vamps - this movie is a good example of how mean and vile vampires are - just like the old folklore and legends about them. Within this film contains the way vampires should be on film - evil. The vampires in Salem's Lot will remind you of the old 1922 film Nosferatu - yes they are that scary.And the story of Salem's Lot is so damned good too! If you like vampire stories, along with mystery and thriller films and a lot of horror then Salem's Lot is a movie you will not want to miss.Yes this movie is a must see for all Vampire fans - and it's hard to believe that this movie was made for television but it was. I was 7 years old when it aired on TV - I was completely terrified then and the movie still creeps me out today.9.5/10
