Synopsis: In the town of Salem, a radio hostess called Heidi (Zombie) receives a Vinyl from a band called The Lords. When she plays it she gets a strange feeling.
Review: I have been expecting the new movie from Rob Zombie after appreciating his previous work (in particular The Devil's Rejects). It is clear that he tried to do something different this time and one cannot blame him for trying, but in the end I was dissapointed. He tries to show some strong horrific images but I was not scared at any moment. Some pieces of music are well chosen as in all Rob's movies, but sometimes don't fit with the action. The investigation around the famous witches is the most linear part of the movie and the easiest to follow. His real-life wife Sheri Moon is central to the story (we see her much more than in any previous part) and turns out to be a talented actress.
