We finally have the UK release date confirmed for Rob Zombie’s latest hillbilly horror, THE LORDS OF SALEM. The HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES helmer has again gathered a cast of cult and genre veterans which includes wife Sheri Moon Zombie, Bruce Davison, Ken Foree, Dee Wallace, Patricia Quinn, Maria Conchita Alonso, Meg Foster, Michael Berryman, Sid Haig, Udo Kier, and Lisa Marie.
The film focuses on former drug user, Heidi (Zombie) who is now clean and works as a rock DJ at the local radio station. Following one of her regular evening shows, Heidi receives a square wooden box containing a vinyl record, the only indication as to its origin is a note proclaiming “A gift from the Lords”. Assuming it is merely a PR stunt by an ambitious band, Heidi gives the record a spin and immediately begins to experience bizarre flashbacks to a past, long-forgotten trauma triggered by the haunting sounds contained on the record.
THE LORDS OF SALEM comes from the producers of PARANORMAL ACTIVITY and INSIDIOUS and hits UK cinemas from the 26 Apr 2013. Check out these new stills.
Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.

The symbol carved on the box reminds me of the Einstürzende Neubauten logo.
