An Evil House Attracts Evil Men
The successful writer Benjamin “Ben” Mears (David Soul) returns to his hometown Salem’s Lot, Maine, expecting to write a new novel about the Marsten House. Ben believes that the manor is an evil house that attracts evil men since the place has many tragic stories and Ben saw a ghostly creature inside the house when he was ten. Ben finds that the Marsten House has just been rented to the antique dealers Richard K. Straker (James Mason) and his partner Kurt Barlow that is permanently traveling.
Ben meets the divorced teacher Susan Norton (Bonnie Bedelia) that is living with her parents and they have a love affair. Ben also gets close to her father Dr. Bill Norton (Ed Flanders) and his former school teacher Jason Burke (Lew Ayres). When people start to die anemic, Ben believes that Straker’s partner is a vampire. But how to convince his friends that he is not crazy and that is the truth?
“Salem’s Lot” is a long movie of 183 minutes running time with a deceptive conclusion. The story is slowly developed but the problem is the silly conclusion. Susan goes to the Marsten House knowing how dangerous the place is following Mark in an irrational attitude. The clumsy Ben has the whole day to go to the vampire lair but he goes near the sunset. Ben drops the glass of holy water in an awful cliché. Bill goes with him totally unarmed in another stupid attitude. The end of the story in Ximico, Guatemala has no explanation. Why are the vampires chasing them? My vote is six.
