Lewis Pullman & Makenzie Davis smiling during Salem's Lot interview
The world is always ready for a Stephen King adaptation, and Max's Salem's Lot is arriving on Max just in time for Halloween season. The story follows author Ben Mears, who has returned to his hometown in order to write about the haunted house there, but must soon come face to face with his inner demons — and the town's outer ones.
9 Screen Rant interviewed Salem's Lot stars Lewis Pullman and Makenzie Leigh about their experience on the set of the Stephen King adaptation. The duo discussed how they approached their characters in the Max movie, as well as which film they would pair with it for a double feature . And I think that if you have the central character as this relatable everyman guy, it's not that far of a stretch to put yourself in his shoes, which immediately makes the stakes feel higher because you feel that much closer to them. It feels that much scarier.
This film is scary, but it was the most fun I've ever had on set. As far as being in the mise-en-scène of the horror genre, the set design was everything that you see, and it felt very 360. The way that they created the sets meant that we really could just live in an imaginary Stephen King world, which was kind of a dream. I feel like I'm making Stephen King fans everywhere feel really jealous right now.
