The Lost Boys

Stephen King’s 1975 vampire novel Salem’s Lot won’t stay dead, coming back for a fourth time as a 2024 feature film exclusively on Max. So why did the studio lock this new effort from producer James Wan (The Conjuring) and writer/director Gary Dauberman (It Chapters 1 & 2) in a crypt for three years before exposing it to the light of day? And would they have more luck changing the title and peddling it as a remake of The Sandlot, given how much focus is put on 11-year-old boys at play?  Listen Now to learn if the end results are Pennywise or dollar foolish.
