absolutly have nothing to do with the tv mini series salem lot ( 1979 ) . very low budget type film . this do not have the same character nor the same actor a in the original film and do not have the main vampire killer a in the original film we all be a fan of . this film be just a total rip off by name of title of the original film instead . not worth the bother and definatly not for child to see . my rating be an awful 1. what a waste of good talent for evelyn keyes ( go with the wind ) and june havoc . only worth a look if you would like to see them act again . but they be goony in this one . why their be not legal nogotiations concern the use of title ( salem lot ) and the picture of the main vampire killer from the original film on the video package be beyond me .
