Quarterly King 10: Salem's Lot
It's time once again to assemble our very own ka-tet and return to the literary world of the master of horror himself, Stephen King. This QK we're covering 'SALEM'S LOT, thanks to a listener's #whatsavesus submission, focusing primarily on the original novel and the 1979 mini-series directed by Tobe Hooper. After a fun exercise in who we'd cast to populate the town in our own version, this bleak and haunting story provides an opportunity to also examine our own reactions to the monstrous actions of people and what hope we could ever have of living our lives without succumbing to the infections around us.
It's a hearty, laugh-filled, and thoughtful conversation as we welcome back Andy Whitfield, Ian Olson, and Blake Collier to the Fear of God with another Quarterly King! We hope you enjoy it.
