More bore than gore. Tobe Hooper's adaptation of 'Salem's Lot.

'Salem's Lot is an interesting concept that failed to arise to the occasion. Don't get me wrong I'm a huge fan of the novel. When I watched the mini-series I was bored. It was so dry. The series lacked everything that made the book interesting. Gone were all the interesting sub-plots, scenes involving the different characters and the feel of the novel is sorely lacking. At least the movie edit was faster and I didn't have to sit through three hours of Tobe Hooper going through the motions. Hey, … more
