Welcome to this Podcast series from The Super Network with The King Zone! This podcast series is all about the adaptations of Stephen King, from the cinematic films, mini-series, TV shows, TV movies and including material written specifically for the screen!
Welcome back to the long awaited next episode of The King Zone Podcast with episode 33, hosts Super Marcey and Bede Jermyn are back along with returning guest Amiedoll! If you may remember on an earlier episode of the podcast, the trio discussed Salem’s Lot the mini series from 1979 and the 2004 mini series and are back to finally discuss the long awaited new version of Salem’s Lot (2024) that was delayed and delayed and we feared maybe it wouldn’t be released! However it was obviously released finally (straight to streaming in most places) and the trio finally get to discuss it, but was it worth the wait? Listen in and find out what Marcey, Bede and Amiedoll thought of this one!
Salem’s Lot 2024 was written and directed by Gary Dauberman, based on the book of the same name by Stephen King.
It stars Lewis Pullman, Makenzie Leigh, Jordan Preston Carter, Alfre Woodard, Bill Camp, John Benjamin Hickey, Nicholas Crovetti, Spencer Treat Clark, William Sadler, Danielle Perry, Debra Christofferson, Pilou Asbæk and Alexander Ward.
Plot from IMDB: An author returns to his hometown of Jerusalem’s Lot in search of inspiration for his next book, only to discover that the townspeople are being attacked by a bloodthirsty vampire.
Highlights include:
* Welcome back to The King Zone, welcome back Amiedoll and welcome back to another Salem’s Lot!
* This film took forever to release, was it worth the wait?
* Marcey, Bede and Amiedoll all agree the film needed more Pilou Asbæk as Straker.
* Salem’s Lot feels more like a cliff notes version of the story.
* Once again everyone agrees this film should have been longer and given time to simmer.
* Mark Petrie is the MVP of this version, without a doubt!
* Bill Camp is great as Matt Burke but he needed more screen time!
* The third act has some great moments at the drive-in.
* Ratings for each film.
* Plus much, much more!
