The long-awaited movie adaptation of Stephen King’s Salem’s Lot from director Gary Dauberman (Annabelle Comes Home) is coming exclusively to Max this Halloween season.

Announced today, Salem’s Lot premieres on Max on October 3, 2024.

Stay tuned for the official trailer, coming very soon…

Stephen King had recently tweeted praise for the film. He wrote earlier this year, “I’ve seen the new SALEM’S LOT and it’s quite good. Old-school horror filmmaking: slow build, big payoff. Not sure why WB is holding it back; not like it’s embarrassing, or anything.”

"Quite good" from SK is high praise indeed!

The TV series scared the piss out of me when I saw it as a kid and I haven't been able to rewatch it. I doubt the film will have the same effect (I've watched a few more horror films since) but we'll see...

If you haven’t watched the 1970s mini series of Salems Lot done by Tobe Hooper, you are missing out. Really pushed the envelope for television at the time.
