Last night it finally came time for me to devote an evening to a TV movie classic I had never seen, hard as that is to believe: SALEM'S LOT.
And though it is not perfect, it's TV Movie Comfort Food in comparison to some of the dreck from the past couple of decades. I can totally understand why many hold it up as a classic. There's some cheese, to be sure, but there are some wonderful low-budget effects and moments that do just what they're supposed to do. I'm also very happy that my first time was via this lovely Blu-ray played on a good TV, as opposed to the TVs that I and the rest of the country would have seen it on when first broadcast. It looks absolutely wonderful.
