Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - For the 80's B-Movie lover only.....
If your a fan of 80's B-Movies like myself, this one is a must-have in your collection. While this doesn't compare to the original Salem's Lot, there is still entertaining humor to be had in this one. Most will rate this film terrible, but as the title of my review goes, it's only for the campy B-Movie collector only. too bad it's not officially on DVD....



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - If you are looking for a high quality sequel, you may want to think about looking somewhere else
This is a slap in the face to the original and even to the remake with Rob Lowe, not to mention Stephen King.

They even have a picture on the cover of Barlow who died in the first one. The acting is terrible, the film sucks. That's right it sucks!! I wish they had a negative star, because this deserves -5 stars..



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Spirited, High Energy, Overcomes Low Budget, Needs DVD

Completely unlike the big budgeted original Salem's Lot (a 1979 TV movie), this movie has lots of spirit and spunk and is slightly campy at times. The action seldom slows down and there are enough plot twists to keep one interested. Director Cohen is a master of making credible low budget flicks (Black Caesar, Q) and having strong overall casts. The beautiful young woman who played actor Michael Moriarity's love interest just one example of this. The movie deserves to be on DVD!

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Sequel in name only, but it has redeeming value.
'A Return to Salem's Lot' was filmed and released many years after the original Tobe Hooper movie/mini-series, 'Salem's Lot', based upon Stephen King's original book. Unlike most King books, 'Salem's Lot' is one that you could imagine a full-length sequel to. To date, there never has been a sequel in print, aside from a short story in King's 'Night Shift.' However, it shared no common characters from the full-length book, so it was pointless. For this reason, it is easy to see the curiosity value and ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great flick
I must say im very disappointed that this movie isnt on dvd. I have to say this is by far one of the best vampire movies you'll find out there. It surpasses salems lot 1 by a long shot. I use to watch this movie all the time as a kid growing up. One day I decided to rent the first one in wich I was very unhappy. I dont want you to get me wrong cause the first one is good. Im just saying its not close to as good.
