Deadline is reporting that Zombie will be partnering with the "Paranormal Activity" crew at Haunted Films (Jason Blum, Steven Schneider and director Oren Peli) for a tale of witches called "Lords of Salem" (cool title, but aren't witches ladies? We refer you to Julian Sands in "Warlock.")
According to the report, it's set in contemporary Salem, where the modern day townspeople are menaced by a coven of 300-year-old witches. Aren't they the worst? Also according to the report, it's been an idea that Zombie has been brewing in the smoky cauldron of his brain for a while but finally decided to pull the trigger after backing out of a proposed "Blob" remake (thank god), citing the creative freedom that production company Haunted Films would award him. “What excited me most was Jason saying, you can have total control over the script, casting and final cut,” Zombie said. The next Haunted Films joint is the bizarre-sounding eco-thriller from Barry Levinson "The Bay."
