First Official Image: Rob Zombie’s Lords of Salem

Get excited, kids. The first official image from Rob Zombie’s next film, The Lords of Salem, is here, and it echoes the goodness of Mario Bava’s Black Sunday. Dig it!

Jason Blum, Steven Schneider, and Oren Peli of Haunted Pictures will be producing as well as Zombie regulars Andy Gould and Brian Kavanaugh-Jones as cameras roll this May, on location in Massachusetts.

Synopsis
The Lords of Salem follows 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.
