Rob Zombie Breaks His Silence About His Next Horror Project, THE LORDS OF SALEM

We announced a few weeks ago that Rob Zombie's next horror project would not be a remake of THE BLOB or WEREWOLF WOMEN OF THE SS like many thought. The rocker-turned horror director will be teaming up with the production company behind PARANORMAL ACTIVITY and today in a candid interview Zombie tells us why he decided to take on the project...


Follow up:




While talking w to Billboard.com Zombie had this to say, "They {The Paranormal Activity producers] came to me and wanted to work together," Zombie says. "I didn't even have an idea at the time. They were like, 'If you want to make a movie, if you have an idea we will give you complete control over casting, the script, the final cut of the picture -- everything. You never heard that. Nobody hears that. Everything's a battle, but these guys were like, 'That'll be our deal with you.' And I was like, 'Great!' "

"The Lords of Salem" is drawn from an idea Zombie had some years back about witches executed in the 17th and 18th centuries who return to Salem, Mass., in the present day. "I grew up in Massachusetts," Zombie says, "so the Salem witch trials and all that was always very prevalent. Even when I was a little kid, you take a school field trip and go to Salem to the witch museums and watch re-enactments of the witch trials. I always found it fascinating, so I started writing an idea about...this group of five witches that were killed back then and have come back to modern day Salem to seek revenge."

Zombie also goes on to mention he is currently writing the script while touring with the band. The band will also be playing a large role in the film. The director/musician says he wants the band to score the movie. It won't be rock music but an actual score from the band. Music should play a large role he says.

Production is excepted to start in early March or April of 2011. To read the entire interview click here.Stay tuned for more details as we get them.

Hey Rob, if you read this post, which I am not sure if you will or not. I am an actual descendent of one of the women accused of witchcraft at that time, her name was Mary Parker. I will be going to the Rock & Shock this coming Sat. (Oct. 16th), so give a yell out at the concert if you read this, ok? Thanks, a loyal fan.

Just one other thing Rob, I have a couple of ideas I wouldn't mind bumping off you about the Lords of Salem movie. :)

When you think stilettos you think of class, finesse, sexy legs, power and the best of everything. If a woman's wardrobe does not have stilettos in her wardrobe then something is really wrong with the woman's dress sense.

Once more, the quality of the material and the elegance of the design is kept intact in spite of the lower price range thanks to the designers who have come out with the replica version.

When you consider the Christian Louboutin shoes you certainly know that what you get is the very best of shoes. The same is the case with the replicas. They match the originals stitch for stitch and sole for sole.

Not regarding the subject, just little advise here. Check your akismet or plug akismet++ , yours is broken to pieces. You're going to get horrible amounts of spam in case you wont repair it.

Blogging also helps you link up your website with any other social media marketing you're doing.

If you give them information which is substandard or that is not targeted to their needs then they will leave and go elsewhere.
