In this episode, I review the classic ABC TV mini series and begin by placing it within the context of the more recent interpretation of the material and character of Pennywise with the It: Chapter One and Chapter Two movies along with It: Welcome To Derry. At the original time of this recording, the movies had not yet been made and Bill Skarsgard had not put his stamp on the character. Now that we are nearly a decade out from that original Chapter One release, it's important to contextualize the legacy of the original ABC adaption its relationship to its successor. Enjoy!

Welcome back to the Stephen Kingcast. As I continue to explore King's adapted televised works, I re-examine the seminal 1979 Salem's Lot two part TV movie.
The original review was published in the early fall of 2014, and in this updated and expanded examination, I provide an additional half hour of context and appreciation to Tobe Hooper's vision.
Original description:
"In this week's episode of The Stephen Kingcast, I examine 1979's adaptation of Salem's Lot. But first, I read some listener e-mail. I then finish up the review with some recommendations. Enjoy!"

In this episode, I talk about how Osgood Perkins' The Monkey was my favorite moviegoing experience of 2025 and how it successfully managed to become the best Stephen King content of the year, in a year that included The Long Walk, The Life of Chuck, Never Flinch, It: Welcome To Derry and The Running Man.

Happy New Year, everyone! One thing I've been grateful for this year is the opportunity to discover new authors I haven't been familiar with. In this episode, I share my joy of the works of Andrew Van Wey, Keith Rosson, JH Markert, Marcus Kliewer, Nat Cassidy and Philip Fracassi. I fell in love with these authors, and I hope you do the same.
