Why it’s HorroRated
Salem's Lot 2024 is a patient and respectful adaptation of the King novel, taking the time to establish the town before it starts losing members. Gary Dauberman understands that the horror works when Mears's connection to the place is real and Lewis Pullman makes that connection credible. The best King adaptation of its year.
Synopsis
Gary Dauberman keeps the novel's 1975 setting and its patient approach to the community's decline. Lewis Pullman and Makenzie Leigh anchor an ensemble that serves the material well. The best King adaptation of its year.
