The Lords of Salem, Review

Rob Zombie gets his wife naked again in The Lords of Salem…. There are certain things that let you know you are watching a Rob Zombie movie. It is a fair point, considering the script is no help.

An explosion of blood! To Marvels credit, the producer Kevin Feige said to me, ThatAvengersjust made a tonne of money. But lets not just do that again. Lets not impose a template or make a run at recreate The Avengers. Lets make a standalone movie. Stylistically, it doesnt have to be the same asThe Avengers.

Fade to Black (1980) Review

He even has his own 16-mm projector and screen. She blames Eric for this and for most everything else. His co-workers (film geeks themselves) think hes creepy.
