'Salem's Lot' (2024 film)

The 2024 film ‘Salem's Lot’ is an adaptation of Stephen King's novel about a writer who returns to his hometown to find it under attack by vampires: 
Plot
Ben Mears, a writer who spent part of his childhood in Jerusalem's Lot, Maine, returns to his hometown after 25 years to write a book about the Marsten House. He discovers that an ancient evil has come to town and is turning the residents into vampires. Ben vows to stop the plague of undead and save the town. 
Characters
The main vampire is Kurt Barlow, a bald-headed coffin-dweller played by Alexander Ward. Ben's assistant, Richard Straker, played by Pilou Asbæk, acquires the Marsten House, a Victorian-style murder mansion. 
Tone
Some say the film is filled with jump scares and deaths, with characters being bitten, shot, and hit by a car. Others say the film doesn't get under your skin enough and doesn't have time to develop the characters. 
Release
The film was announced in 2019, shot in 2021, and with additional photography in 2022.
