"It has the feel of 'Old Hollywood,' when a film was given a chance to draw a breath before getting to business. When attention spans were longer, in other words," wrote King. "It feels like a horror movie version of slow-burn movies like THE GREAT ESCAPE. It builds very well. There are diversions from the book I don't agree with, but on the whole, faithful."

King even went on to describe his favourite scene from the movie, which sounds fittingly gruesome for a story about vampires.
