Gary Dauberman Says Salem’s Lot Will Stay True To King’s Story

One concern of Stephen King fans is if an adaptation (and there’s a bunch) will adhere to the source material. Screenwriter Gary Dauberman eased those worries today when he confirmed that his and James Wan‘s upcoming adaptation of King’s novel Salem’s Lot will be as faithful to the original tale as possible. The IT and Annabelle Comes Home writer had this to say: I like to be as true to the story as I possibly can until it gets a little too unwieldly for a movie. I’m very, very excited to be a part of that and tackle it. It hasn’t had the big screen treatment yet, which is how I felt about it. It’s so fun to play around with vampires and make something trulys cary with vampires. I haven’t seen that in a long, long time, and I’m excited for people to see it.” While the 1979 Tobe Hooper-directed TV adaptation of King’s novel was scary, it was

Come Aboard Justin Dix’s ‘Blood Vessel’ For A First Look

The first images from Crawlspace director Justin Dix’s new horror film Blood Vessel (a title that fits in more ways than one) are here teasing a terrifying voyage for an unlucky group stranded at sea. Nathan Phillips, Alyssa Sutherland, Christopher Kirby, and John Lloyd Fillingham star in the film set somewhere in the North Atlantic, in 1945. A life raft adrift at sea, and in it, the survivors of a torpedoed hospital ship: With no food, water, or shelter, all seems lost – until an abandoned German minesweeper drifts towards them, giving them a chance at survival. As they explore the ship, it becomes all too clear that some diabolical fate has befallen its German crew. The mystery only deepens when they encounter a young Romanian girl, who leads them to a locked storage room in the bowels of the vessel. Inside, a frantic German sailor and a haul of Nazi treasure, including the ancient sarcophagi of two long-dead vampires…”

Spider-Man’s ‘Morbius The Living Vampire’ Getting His Own Spin-off

Sony is continuing to expand the ‘Spider-Man’ universe with another spin-off. Developed under the dark of night, it has come to light that Sony is moving forward with a movie centered on ‘Morbius the Living Vampire’. The script for the film has officially been submitted to the studio and is ready to enter production. All that they are lacking is the right director, THR reports. Simply titled Morbius, the script was penned by Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama, who wrote Saban and Lionsgate’s Power Rangers movie. They were also behind God’s of Egypt and Dracula Untold. ‘Morbius the Living Vampire’ made his debut in ‘Spider-Man’ #101, the first issue not written by Marvel co-creator Stan Lee. He was created by Roy Thomas and Gil Kane. Morbius, while described as a vampire, is not one in the traditional sense. His thirst for blood is a result of experiments he conducted on himself in an attempt to cure a rare disease, but
