Star Says New ‘Salem’s Lot’ Movie Is A True Adaptation Of King’s Story

Writer-director Gary Dauberman‘s new adaptation of Stephen King’s Salem’s Lot is currently in production. Star Lewis Pullman (Top Gun: Maverick, Strangers: Prey At Night) has now said that this adaptation is much closer to the book than the mini-series that debuted back in 1979. “Gary Dauberman, the director, is really keen on doing justice to the book. But also, the previous adaptation was a two-parter, because it’s such a hefty book and there are so many different moving parts and so many characters.” Pullman told ComicBook.com. “So there are some parts where Gary had to press and find what was really at the heart of the movie to keep in, but for the most part, he’s really true to the book and keeping a lot of the original dialogue in there. He’s a Stephen King hound dog so he doesn’t wanna do Stephen dirty. So I think it’s in good hands, Gary’s a really smart guy who has a keen

Terror Films Gifts Horror Fans The Trailer For Anthology 'The Christmas Tapes'

Terror Films Gifts Horror Fans The Trailer For Anthology ‘The Christmas Tapes’

Halloween has passed (*sad face) so now it’s time to move on to the other upcoming holiday films, including Robert Livings and Randy Nunldall Jr.’s Christmas horror anthology The Christmas Tapes. The film centers on a family’s movie night on Christmas Eve which is interrupted by a stranger, insistent on making the next Christmas ‘classic’ film himself. Dave Sheridan (The Devil’s Rejects), Greg Sestero (The Room), and Veron Wells (The Road Warrior) star in a yuletide fright-fest like no other! The movie is described as a throwback to the anthology films of the 80s and 90s, but with a modern found-footage twist. Christmas Horror is a subgenre that we feel deserves more attention, and this film came about from us discussing the classics and how we could possibly bring something new to the table. From day one, we were aware that this film had to be fun and could not take itself too seriously. Developing each segment and the trajectory

Peacock’s “Certified Fresh” true crime documentary A Friend of the Family: True Evil, the companion to Peacock’s heart-breaking and infuriating limited drama series “A Friend of the family,” delves deeper into the case of Jan Broberg, who was kidnapped more than once and assaulted, and brainwashed as a child by a family friend, Robert Berchtold.

It also features never-before-revealed information from another Berchtold victim, who Jan meets on her journey, as well as an emotional and honest conversation with Jan’s mother about the events that took place years ago.
