Lords Of Salem - 2012 - 6/10

Radio DJ Heidi receives a wooden box with a vinyl recording inside.
She plays it on the air and it profoundly affects her as well as many female listeners.
Record player? People who actually listen to radio at night?
Go with it, OK?
Heidi lives in an old brick apartment. Her neighbors include aging, nosy biddies.
Plus, a disquieting shadow who lives in the “empty” apartment.
Extremely slow going, but moody and downright nervy at times.
For the unwary, this is a Rob Zombie film. A director one loves or hates.
I found his previous outings to be stupid, unfunny, poorly filmed, amateurish.
As mentioned, Lords Of Salem creeps along, if possible, each act gets slower.
It is a “haunted” story and probably falls into sub-category of Chick Horror.
Expect a lot of nudity. Mostly female, though most appear to be of the clutch who clean buildings at night or work fast food joints.
Those expecting supermodels or firm fleshed ingenues, consider this a warning.
