Rob Zombie’s The Lords of Salem shoot is winding down as they’ve just wrapped production in Salem Massachusetts and are picking up tomorrow in Los Angeles.

“And so it ends. Today is the last day of filming on THE LORDS OF SALEM. Thank you to all in Salem that helped to make this film possible. See you at the movies,” said Zombie before clarifying, “We are not done yet, just done in Salem. Tomorrow we head back to LA to continue working on the film.”

Inside you’ll find a behind-the-scenes photo from the final day of production and another “official” teaser image.

“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.” READ MORE

It’s an insanely slow news day, so I figure I may as well share Rob Zombie’s latest photo from the set of The Lords of Salem that depicts a local sign pointing the way to Salm’s Wax Museum and Witch Village. Is this a local sign or something made up for the film, we’re not quite sure….

LordsMightyLand111211 The Lords of Salem Offers Up Goats and Shock Rock Swordsmen In New Pics!

Rob Zombie posted a few new pictures from the set of The Lords of Salem this afternoon – and I’m not entirely sure what to make of them.

One features a Kiss-esque dude holding a sword over a pentagram. That’s pretty much Rob Zombie’s aesthetic in a nutshell. The other just has a goat. I imagine some kind of ritual will befall this little fella.

The Lords Of Salem stars Bruce Davison, 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 Christopher Knight, and Patricia Quinn.

“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.

Out of all of the casting for Rob Zombie’s The Lords of Salem, I’m kind of shocked he’s yet to announce the obvious addition of Sheri Moon Zombie, which we’ve now confirmed. Sheri has had a role in all of Zombie’s films from House of 1,000 Corpses to The Devil’s Rejects, Halloween and Halloween II.

She joins the previous announced Meg Foster, Ernest Thomas, Jeff Daniel Phillips, Torsten Voges and Bruce Dern, with filming starting this October.

After being committed for 17 years, Michael Myers, now a grown man and still very dangerous, is mistakenly released from the mental institution (where he was committed as a 10 year old) and he immediately returns to Haddonfield, where he wants to find his baby sister, Laurie. Anyone who crosses his path is in mortal danger.

Zombie’s vision of this film is an entirely new take on the legend and will satisfy fans of the classic “Halloween” legacy while beginning a new chapter in the Michael Myers saga. “This is a bit of a prequel and a remake, combined,” says Zombie.
