There appears to be nobody credited as Barlow (although there is a makeup artist credited to Barlow)

https://variety.com/2023/film/news/s...ut-1235774431/The studio is looking to jettison its horror film “Salem’s Lot” to Max, sources say. Warner Bros. developed it for a theatrical rollout, but after sitting on the shelf for a year, the Gary Dauberman-directed Stephen King adaptation is poised to make its debut on the Warner Bros. Discovery streaming platform.
A source with knowledge of the back-and-forth says the move is not a reflection of the film’s quality but is due to the fact that the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike has created a growing need for Max content. “Salem’s Lot” is one of a few Warner Bros. films deemed to make the jump. But a Warner Bros. spokesperson said, “No decision has been made about the film’s future distribution plans.”

NOT sharing the picture directly, even if watermarked because the professionnal picture database could be annoying but... could this shot be from the new "Salem's Lot" movie?

I think it’s just a stock photo model dressed up, doesn’t look like it’s from a film.

https://twitter.com/StephenKing/stat...921844348?s=20Between you and me, Twitter, I've seen the new SALEM'S LOT and it's quite good. Old-school horror filmmaking: slow build, big payoff. Not sure why WB is holding it back; not like it's embarrassing, or anything. Who knows. I just write the fucking things.

Given that an entire line of Children of the Corn was made (and we can name others), one wonders at the notion that quality concerns might actually prevent the release/airing of a King adaptation.
And although I (as a viewer) care loads about quality, given the financial nature of film production, once money has been sunk into it, you've got to let it out in order to get any money back, and that (at this point) should be WB's goal (unless they envision some magical new edit of what's been shot that can save it).
You can't be aloof until you advertise.
I know you hate King and want to paint him as some money-grubbing miser who but I'm pretty sure he's already been paid already and he just wants people to see the film. Can't imagine this one film makes too much of a difference for him financially.
Nothing to do with quality reasons. Zaslav canned the Wile E. Coyote film without even seeing it for a tax write off even though it had been getting rave reviews at test screenings.

Yeah the team were able to shop that movie around. Netflix were interested at 45M if i recall correctly, but WB declined as they wanted 80
