Rob Zombie’s LORDS OF SALEM seems like it’s shaping up to be something twisted and new from Rob Zombie… Personally I find that hard to beleive considering all of Rob Zombie’s work has been very… well.. Rob Zombie-ish. But alas it seems LORDS OF SALEM is going a different route.. or so says Mr. Zombie.
You see the media maestro has just updated his Twitter page with the following ‘tweet’:
“Watching LORDS OF SALEM SFX test footage. Holy fuck this is fucking sick shit. I hope everyone loves demented, perverted satanic movies.”
Alright then. We don’t really need much more than that right?
Heidi, a blonde rock chick, DJs at a local radio station, and together with the two Hermans (Whitey and Munster) forms part of the “Big H Radio Team”.
A mysterious wooden box containing a vinyl record arrives for Heidi, “a gift from the Lords”. She assumes it’s a rock band on a mission to spread their word. As Heidi and Whitey play the Lords’ record, it starts to play backwards, and Heidi experiences a flashback to a past trauma.
Later Whitey plays the Lords’ record, dubbing them the Lords of Salem, and to his surprise, the record plays normally and is a massive hit with listeners.
The arrival of another wooden box from the Lords presents the Big H Team with free tickets, posters and records to host a gig in Salem. Soon Heidi and her cohorts find that the gig is far from the rock spectacle they’re expecting: the original Lords of Salem are returning, and they’re out for BLOOD.
LORDS OF SALEM should be done filming by now and sitting comfortably in post-production, so expect a lot more ‘demented, perverted and satanic’ updates soon!
