Rob Zombie announced today that Zombie regular Dee Wallace has joined the cast of The Lords of Salem, which begins lensing this fall from the producing team behind Insidious and Paranormal Activity.

Dee plays the role of “Sonny,” a self-help guru. Shooting begins in less than two weeks.

Dee has appeared in so many beloved genre films such as The Hills Have Eyes, The Stepford Wives, The Howling, E.T.:The Extra-Terrestrial, Cujo, The Frightners and Halloween.

Bruce Dern was just cast as “Francis Matthias”, author of the book “Satan’s Last Stand – The Truth About The Salem Witch Trials.” Jeff Phillips will play Herman “Whitey” Salvador, one third of “The Big H Team” at WIQZ – Salem’s Rock Radio. Meg Foster was also cast as “Margaret Morgan”, the leader of a secret coven of witches in Salem. Ernest Thomas will play Chip “Freakshow” McDonald, the station manager at Salem’s #1 rock station. Torsten Voges stars as “Count Gorgann”, the lead singer of the Norwegian death metal band Leviathan the Fleeing Serpent.

“The story is about a local DJ who mistakenly unleashes a hellish curse on the town. 300 years earlier on the very streets of Salem that the townspeople walk on today, innocent folks were rounded up from their homes, convicted of being witches and sentenced to death. The Lords of Salem ran the town with an iron fist, but four witches who were tortured and killed in secrecy vowed that one day they would be back for revenge.”
