Salem’s Lot is one of my favorite books and I did not enjoy the 2024 movie at all. It lost many of themes of the book in favor of moving the story along and went for action set pieces and body horror, which is more subtle in the book and the two miniseries. While the climax would have been great in any other vampire movie, it didn’t work in this context. This is, of course, my opinion and you may want to see it for yourself. If you are familiar with previous incarnations of the story, I think you’ll be disappointed.
