Review of The Lords of Salem (2013) by Ariel R — 07 Jul 2013
The plot is pretty thin and the acting isn't that good. That being said the movie is technically pleasing and the effects are all practical and as such a delight. The atmosphere of the movie is very disturbing. Ambient sound was well done. A drone that erodes the sanity of the viewer and the lead. The soundtrack was amazing. Mozart, J.S. Bach, The Velvet Underground, Manfred Mann's Earth Band, Rick James and even a Rob Zombie and John 5 recording that didn't annoy me.
This movie is all kinds of screwed up and goes off the rails insane by the end of the movie. Basically, this is Rob Zombie's art film. Not a mainstream movie by any stretch of the imagination.
