"So vampires can fly now?" Well, they could float and hover in the original 1979 version.

[@darnellwilcox4600]

Actually they can fly,float and hover.They can become wolf like and bat like in nature.According to ancient folklore,they can become and do many other things.

[@gaylemalone5897]

Vampires have mostly always been able to fly and they had other powers like shifting into other creatures like wolves and controlling fog.

Yes, dear, i think its going theatrical in Australia and the UK and Ireland and some other countries, but not in the US. It would appear its only streaming on Max there for whatever reason..🙂✌️

I thought "Salem's Lot" was his best novel. I just hope this adaptation does it justice.

[@geoffjoffy]

I'm still wondering what was so wrong with the movie it had to be delayed for so long?

[@darnellwilcox4600]

I heard budget restraints was an issue,content wasn't good enough,so they had to do a lot of re-shooting of scenes .They also had some casting issues as well.Despite everything,I just hope the movie is halfway decent.

​@@darnellwilcox4600 Yeah regarding the casting, I note Susan in this new version looks a different sort of Susan from the previous two Susans 1979 and 2004. They were more stand out classy whereas the new Susan seems to be sporting a bad wig and is a different type of Susan - if that makes sense, both looks wise and dress sense.

@@geoffjoffy A couple of people already seen it as an earth release,and said that it was terrible in every way possible. The movie looked rushed,unorthodox,cheesy acting and plot issues.Everybody has to be their own judge.

[@geoffjoffy]

@@darnellwilcox4600 And the reviewers have also said the movie is 'good fun'. Salem's Lot isn't supposed to be fun. It's supposed to scare the sh** out of you.

[@pugwall316]
