The undertaking has been sitting on the Warner Bros. cabinets for some time, however based mostly on King’s latest evaluation, we’re hoping it sees the sunshine of day quickly.
The horror grasp — who is not at all times beneficial when he evaluations variations of his work — took to Twitter/X not too long ago to reward the remake, describing it as “muscular and involving”.
“It has the texture of ‘Previous Hollywood,’ when a movie was given an opportunity to attract a breath earlier than attending to enterprise. When consideration spans had been longer, in different phrases,” wrote King. “It appears like a horror film model of slow-burn motion pictures like THE GREAT ESCAPE. It builds very nicely. There are diversions from the ebook I do not agree with, however on the entire, trustworthy.”
King even went on to explain his favorite scene from the film, which sounds fittingly grotesque for a narrative about vampires.
“Greatest scene: Danny Glick within the hospital, making an attempt to claw down a blood bag,” wrote King. “The Glick scene may have been directed by John Carpenter in his prime.”
