Wooden houses? I'd say they're probably most common in the northeast.

There are some in Perth specifically in rural areas but most aren't built out of wood...

I watched Salems Lot again last night and that was in Maine, and those wooden houses went up a treat when set on fire!

Yeah, I'm surprised they still build houses out of wood in Maine with all those vampires around.

Again? You've watched it several times?

Not that it's horrible, but there are certainly better ways to kill 3 hours.

After Carrie, that would have to be my fav Stephen King book. For some reason, the way he talked about their eyes, and that scene where the guy was trying to bury the little kid vampire gave me honest chills.

I've seen it several times over the years and always enjoy it, the 3 hours just flies by.

By the prom, I'm so rooting for Carrie, even though I know what's gonna happen, and I'm actually rooting for her to kill the douchy ****s.

The ending is predictable by today's standards but when I first saw it in the early 1980s it was totally unexpected and outstanding. Remember I was watching this film, when video films were still a novelty and it was one of the first batch of horror films released on video.

The earlier part of the film was great and captured the painful existence of a young girl both at home and at school.
