Even movies that weren’t meant for the big screen, like Salem’s Lot Mysterymarked an entire generation and will soon receive a new updated adaptation that will try to generate the same sensations in viewers as the original film.
Although the 1979 film directed by Tobe Hooper (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre) was intended for television and, in fact, is considered a two-episode miniseries, it featured one of the most traumatic scenes of all the adaptations the Maine writer has had over the years.
An essential scene in the new adaptation of Stephen King
Gary Dauberman directs and writes the script for the new film that will adapt Stephen King’s book to the big screen. The director of Annabelle Comes Home has a very high bar with a certain scene from the 1979 film that still traumatizes those who, at that time, were children.
Naturally, we refer to the window scene, when Ralphie Glick appears floating before the window of Danny. Without being a violent scene, many still get their hair on end just by remembering it.
Dauberman has it difficult to generate that same sensation in the public of 2023, but therein lies the grace of enjoying this new version of The Mystery of Salem’s Lot that will feature Alfre Woodard, Lewis Pullman, Bill Camp, Spencer Treat Clark, Mackenzie Leigh, William Sadler, Pilou Asbæk, John Benjamin Hickey, Cade Woodward y Nicholas Crovetti.
Stephen King has been, is and will be a source of inspiration for the audiovisual. There is no book yours not to be considered for an adaptation, even if not all of them turn out to be hits.
