Michael Berryman joins The Lords of Salem

Genre favorite Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes) is the latest addition to the cast of Rob Zombie's The Lords of Salem. According to a recent post by Rob Zombie, Berryman will be playing "Virgil Magnus, 50% of a well-known witch hunting duo called The Brothers".

Michael joins previously announced cast members Judy Geeson, Bruce Davison, Christopher Knight, Barbara Crampton, Ken Foree, Lisa Marie, Richard Lynch, Billy Drago, Dee Wallace, Trosten Voges, Ernest Thomas, Meg Foster, Maria Conchita Alonso, and Jeff Daniel Phillips.

Rob Zombie is currently filming the movie, which involves a vinyl record that summons The Lords of Salem back from the dead:

“Heidi, a blonde rock chick, DJs as a local radio station, and together with the two Hermans (Whitey and Munster) forms part of the ‘Big H Radio Team’.

A myserious wooden box containing a vinyl record arrives for Heidi, ’a gift from the Lords’. She assumes it’s a rock band on a mission to spread their word. As Heidi and Whitey play the Lords’ record, it starts to play backwards, and Heidi experiences a flashback to a past trauma.

Later, Whitey plays the Lords’ record, dubbing them the Lords of Salem, and to his surprise, the record plays normally and is a massive hit with listeners.

The arrival of another wooden box from the Lords presents the Big H team with free tickets, posters and records to host a gig in Salem. Soon Heidi and her cohorts find that the gig is far from the rock spectacle they’re expecting: the original Lords of Salem are returning, and they’re out for BLOOD.”
