Heretic. Witch. Devil. This Undead Monday, we take a look at Rob Zombie’s latest supernatural horror film, The Lords of Salem.

The third film from Haunted Films following the successful Paranormal Activity and Insidious, The Lords of Salem marks Rob Zombie's return to original horror film following his Halloween remake films.

Starring Sheri Moon Zombie, the film follows a somewhat old school-esque storytelling with the return of a coven of witches (whom we presumed are those that captured during the Salem Witch Trials) after a local DJ unwitting unleashes them via playing a satanic record that plays backward.

Here's the official synopsis of the film:

Heidi, a blond 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 of the Lords. She assumes it’s a rock band on a mission to spread 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. 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 are far from the rock spectacle they’re expecting.

The original Lords of Salem are returning and they’re out for blood.

The Lords of Salem is expected to be released sometime this year.
