Rob Zombie’s bizarre and stunning witch-horror freakout THE LORDS OF SALEM (2012) — Friday Night WTF!
October 23 : 9:00 pm – 11:00 pm
Friday Night WTF screenings are cheap, weird, and out of control! Cult trashterpieces, so-bad-they’re-good crapfests, movies that make you ask “What the hell am I watching?!” — we’ve got ’em all on Friday night.
“DREAD-INDUCING! This isn’t just one of the best witch movies of the 2000s; it’s one of the best horror films. Period.” – Bloody Disgusting
From the twisted mind of horror maestro Rob Zombie, The Lords of Salem is a chilling plunge into a nightmare world where evil runs in the blood. Drenched in creepy ’70s-style atmosphere, the film tells the haunting tale of Heidi (Sheri Moon Zombie), a radio station DJ living in Salem, Massachusetts, who receives a strange wooden box containing a record—a “gift from the Lords.” Heidi listens, and the bizarre sounds within the grooves immediately trigger flashbacks of the town’s violent past. Is Heidi going mad, or are the “Lords of Salem” returning for revenge on modern-day Salem? Dismissed by most critics upon its initial release, The Lords of Salem has rightfully earned a cult following for its stunning visuals, dread-inducing tone, and tripped-out climax of terror.
