Darkness rises again in _A Return to Salem’s Lot_, a mediocre sequel to the Stephen King classic. After moving to Salem’s Lot to reconnect with his estranged son, noted anthropologist Joe Weber discovers that the town is completely inhabited by vampires, who proceed to coerce him to document their history and culture. The vampire society is interesting in concept, but it’s overshadowed by the weak storytelling. And the acting is especially bad, particularly Michael Moriarty. _A Return to Salem’s Lot_ has some interesting ideas, but the filmmaking is extremely poor.
