An Interview with the Cast of 'Salem's Lot'

An Interview with the Cast of ‘Salem’s Lot’

One of the year’s most highly anticipated horror films is Gary Dauberman’s new adaptation of Stephen King’s Salem’s Lot. With its premiere only days away, I sat down with the film’s cast, including Lewis Pullman, Makenzie Leigh, Alfre Woodard, and Spencer Treat Clark, to discuss the movie, their characters, special effects, and much more. The film is set in 1975, when King’s original novel was published. Salem’s Lot follows author Ben Mears as he returns to his hometown of Jerusalem’s Lot. Haunted by a childhood incident, Mears seeks inspiration for his next book. Ben soon discovers that the town is being terrorized by a bloodthirsty vampire and its loyal servant. The film experienced multiple delays. If you are wondering if it was worth waiting for, my review, which you can find HERE, will answer that question. Salem’s Lot, a film you can really sink your teeth into, will bare its fangs on MAX on October 3. Watch the new Salem’s
