Let the Rob Zombie bashing begin. We've got our first look at the trailer for the divisive director's latest effort, The Lords of Salem, and although I'm not a big fan of his, I have to admit it at least looks visually stunning. The movie stars Sheri Moon Zombie (of course) as a radio DJ who plays a mysterious record that seems to resurrect a coven of 17th century witches.

The video cassette-themed “found footage” anthology horror movie V/H/S may require some “kind rewinding” to fully comprehend what the heck is going on. Or maybe it just doesn’t make any sense. Either way, read about it in my review of V/H/S.

Legion

Director Scott Stewart's first two films -- Legion and Priest -- were attractive, promising genre flicks that ultimately disappointed on both a creative and commercial level. It turns out we'll find out fairly soon if the third time's the charm for Stewart, as his next movie, Dark Skies, is now scheduled for release on February 22, 2013. Dark Skies stars Keri Russell and Josh Hamilton as a suburban couple who must protect their son (played by Dakota Goyo from Real Steel) against an alien disguised as a human who's targeted the boy for abduction. February is a pretty quick turnaround for the movie, since Russell was just cast in July and filming occurred only last month, so hopefully this fast track is a good sign that the studio is optimistic about the outcome.

Jennifer Lynch’s latest directorial effort stars a sweaty Vincent D’Onofrio and features rape, murder, child abuse, kidnapping, slavery and a touch of incest, but otherwise, it’s the feel-good film of the year. Read about it in my review of Chained.

The latest family-friendly horror flick from director Joe Dante (Gremlins, The ‘Burbs), The Hole was shot back in 2008-09 and was released in most parts of the world in 2010 and 2011, but the US is just now getting its hands on the film, which plays a bit like The Gate meets House…but not as good as either. Anyway, it hits home video (DVD/Blu-ray/VOD) next week, but if you want to see it on the big screen, you can do so in Los Angeles and select cities in Georgia (Morrow, Kennesaw, Lawrenceville, Decatur) starting today. Read more in my review of the DVD of The Hole.
