Salem's Lot (1979) full mini-series


Presented here is the full three hour, original mini-series Salem's Lot from 1979, which was the first television mini-series (and the second film) to be based on the writings of author Stephen King as well as being his second published novel. 

At the time of it's first airing, I was fascinated by both the novel and mini-series and they left quite an impression on me. Tobe Hooper's direction does a great job of supplying the increasingly mounting dread as the small New England town slowly slips into being controlled by the evil forces of the nefarious pair,
Mr. Straker and Mr. Barlow.
