3rd version of 'Salem's Lot

Sometimes it just takes a while to claw your way to the surface. That’s how a lot of creatives feel about their Hollywood projects, and it’s true in multiple ways for the new adaptation of Stephen King’s vampire tale, Salem’s Lot. Not only is it about residents of a small town who get picked off one-by-one before rising up from the grave as night-stalking fiends, but it has been a journey of many years (many more than expected) for writer-director Gary Dauberman, who signed on after proving his King bona fides as the screenwriter of It and It: Chapter 2.

A nice long article from my pal Anthony Breznican at Vanity Fair about this adaptation.

In EW's exclusive clip from Salem's Lot, Ben and Susan join Alfre Woodard as Dr. Cody, who first fears the spread of a blood illness; Jordan Preston Carter as school kid horror expert Mark Petrie; and John Benjamin Hickey as local priest Father Callahan as they investigate the Straker's mansion to find evidence of a dead body. Bill Camp also stars as Van Helsing-esque school teacher Matthew Burke.
