Rob Zombie: ‘The Lords of Salem’ “Is Like Chinese Water Torture”

ARTISTdirect caught up with Rob Zombie to talk about his forthcoming album but took a detour into the world of The Lords of Salem, his latest genre outing that’s still in post-production.

I’m in the final stages of finishing the film. By the end of August, we’ll be done. The sound designers are still creating some of the sound effects for the movie. Once they’re done, I’ll go into the mix stage in August and mix the final sound for the movie. Then, I’ll be done,” Zombie explains.

But what we all want to know is what kind of horror can we expect? Zombie explains that it’s a slow burn with a pretty large payoff. “This movie is definitely a slow psychological burn…It’s a weird movie,” said Zombie. “When you watch it, it seems like there’s not a lot happening for a while. However, what’s happening is you’re starting to get sucked into the pace of the movie though.

It’s a very strange movie. I wanted to go against a lot of the conventions that I’ve seen in what are considered horror movies. There are certain things that always happen. I wanted to break away from them. It’s a more psychological movie.” Zombie adds that, while it’s a slow burn, some crazy shit does happen: “Lots of little crazy things happen all the way through it. There’s not one particular thing where you’re flying out of your seat.

The way it unfolds is like Chinese water torture dripping on you,” jokes Zombie.

Zombie Shares Look At Rotted Witch Corpse From ‘The Lords of Salem’

 Zombie Shares Look At Rotted Witch Corpse From The Lords of Salem

A mini-iron maiden and a rotted corpse are on display in the latest behind-the-scenes look at The Lords of Salem, the Rob Zombie-directed genre pic awaiting its premiere. The image shared displays SFX supervisor Wayne Toth working on some nasty witch business.

Meg Foster, Ernest Thomas, Jeff Daniel Phillips, Torsten Voges, Bruce Dern, Sheri Moon Zombie, Dee Wallace, Billy Drago, Richard Lynch, Lisa Marie, Maria Conchita Alonso, Ken Foree, Bruce Davidson, Christopher Knight, Michael Berryman and Sid Haig all star.

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.
