'Salem's Lot (Mad World)

This is a video dedicated to my all time favorite Stephen King novel and movie! 'Salem's Lot! Now, if you don't like the newer version of the movie then please just go away now! Because I love that version much more than the 70s one for the simple fact that -gasp- it followed the plot line of the novel better. There's no changing my mind so refrain from nasty comments about how you hate this version of the movie, because I love it!

Anyway, the video's mostly about Ben Mears and Mark Petrie and how the whole town is going mad around them, but I do have Matt Burke, Susan Norton making random appearances! Now the reason for not using any vampire clips is simple! My converter didn't convert the whole movie, only the first part of it sadly, so expect another 'Salem's Lot movie from me soon!

Song: Mad World
Artist: Gary Jules

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. But I don't like the original movie. xP

Is this really your favorite book? Not hating, but I've read quite a few of King's novels and this was one of my least favorites. But I still admire your editing expertise! I really tried to like this book. I tried to force it, but to no avail!

I have my own ideas of what a movie of this book must be. So I saw 30 days of night i would mix the 79's miniseries, this 2004 movie and some ideas of "30 days" like the omnipresence of the vampires at "30 days". One good scene it would be many vampires on the air arriving to the windows like the book describes. "They didn't look at the windows, overall the didn't look the windows"... so the 2 movies becomes from the great books I like both....

@iMAxxDiNOxxRaWR I've seen both versions and read the book and I think both versions where good in their own respective ways.

[GenghisWanghis]

i can never decide, because they are both... mediocre.good... i love the book, here's to hoping an honest and awesome movie could be made some day

IMAxx, I have to disagree with you. I agree that the 2004 version was more inline with the book, but the first one was much better, and scarier. With regards to Barlow, the point of the director in the original was to make him more like a beast than a human, and it worked. Sorry, but as much as I like Rutger Hauer, he didn't scare me. That's what I think the director in the original was trying to accomplish more than anything. I've read the book and it's awesome. But this version sucked.

[iMAxxDiNOxxRaWR]

Mr. Barlow from the '79 version? Absolute bull. Have you read the book? He's not supposed to be a blue Nosferatu wannabe. He's supposed to look like a man, like all the other vampires.

I've never seen the second version, but all I know is that the first was horrible.

[reynolds50035]

Absoloute crap this version was. There is only one Mr Barlow and that is the one played by the late great Reggie Nalder .The Master.Look at mechandise you can get for this film, all most all feature Mr Barlow from 79 version

Though the remake is closer to the book, the original in 1979 was better by far. The remake is far less scary and I find it funny that in the remake, some Vampire's have glowing eyes while others do not.

That's James Mason, not Donald Sutherland.
