ROB ZOMBIE PROMISES THAT LORDS OF SALEM WILL BE “PAINFUL”

Rob Zombie is making a new movie, Lords of Salem, which is based around some descendants of witches who were killed during the 17th century Salem witch trials — because there’s nothing quite like suggesting that the crazy religious nutjobs of yesteryear made the right decision by killing nineteen people. I mean, SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE MIGHT HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN WITCHES!

Yeah. I know. I’m over-thinking this.

Anyways, they’ve released the first image from the film now, and, uh… it’s just a mask. Yeah it looks kinda cool and it’s definitely metal and I’m all for Zombie making anything that isn’t another Halloween movie, but it’s not like I look at this pic and go “MUST SEE.” Zombie says that “the scene that involves this face is very painful,” but the rest of that thought could be “to watch, because the movie sucks,” so who knows.

I have no idea when Lords of Salem is coming out, and I don’t think anyone else does yet, either.
