Because of this movie, there will never be a 'Salem's Lot 3' and that's too bad. I gave it a '2' but I think I was charitable.

So you can't judge it against awful movies that were shot for video only with a $100,000 budget.No, this one really is unbelievably bad considering its backing and the name it had to trade on. Really I must say, that of 'major' studio movies, this one truly has a shot at worst of all time, as they had real actors, a real budget, location, scenery and etc.and it is still horrible.

I first saw it last year after renting it at a video store, because the original Salem's Lot is a pretty good film, but this movie has nothing to do with the looked like they shot it about 10 minutes after the writer wrote it, and they had one shot only.if you forgot your lines, just adlib something.the plot was preposterous.the only attribute it made to vampire movies at all was the concept of the 'drones' who could function during the day as normal people and guard the real vampires.

how bad? Well the kid who played the exceedingly foul-mouthed boy has NO other acting credits to his name on this movie database! That should say something.to think that Michael Moriarty, an actor with many fine films to his credit, would appear in a piece of crap like this. With Michael Moriarty, Ricky Addison Reed, Samuel Fuller, Andrew Duggan. that I had to force myself to see it through to the end. A Return to Salems Lot: Directed by Larry Cohen.
