from Vampire Videos · host Film Stories

[14x6] The homecoming from hell continues. Season XIV enters its final stretch as we make our (final?) visit to the cursed town of Salem’s Lot. This week, we’re sinking our teeth into the 2004 TNT miniseries. Rob Lowe stars as author Ben Mears, who returns to his childhood home only to find that an ancient evil is already there.... Joining us to navigate the shadows is a special guest: Dr Simon Brown, an Associate Professor of Film and TV and a self-described Stephen King super-fan. We discuss how this mid-2000s reimagining holds up against King’s legendary source material. 🎙️ The Lineup Hosts: Dan Owen & Hugh McStay Guest: Dr Simon Brown Editor: Dan Owen "You guys hear about the hippie vampire? He's ghoul, man. Real ghoul." — Mark Petrie ❤️ Support the Show If you enjoyed this trip to the Lot, here is how you can help us grow: Review: Subscribe & leave a 5* rating on your podcast platform.
