I really didn't know Rob Zombie was stepping aside from his Horror loving to make a non-horror project. However, he is on board with a project called "Broad Street Bullies" based on the true story of the 1970's Philadelphia Flyers.
"That [script] is finished," Zombie tells ComingsSoon.net. "I just
finished it. That was an epic battle because that was the first time I
had to really research something. There's no fiction in it, it's all
true. It was a year of research, my God, I read every f--king book and,
obviously, the game ends with game 6 against the Bruins when they win
the cup. I must have watched game 6 a thousand f--king times until I
had it memorized. It's a pretty epic script. I was just in Philadelphia
a couple of weeks ago and all of those guys still go to every game. I
was sitting in the box with Joe Watson and Bernie Parent. The
Broadstreet Bullies still reign there. I got to get that movie right or
they'll take me out and hang me."
Although is not yet set up at a studio, Zombie suggests that fans won't have a very long wait before it finds a home.
"We had so many offers for it but we haven't taken one yet," he
continues. "It's funny because everybody was like 'Oh, a hockey movie,
nobody's going to want it.' But as soon as we announced it, everyone
came out of the woodwork. Everybody wanted to get involved. Nothing
against horror movies and I don't mean this to sound any way, but no
agent wants to put their client in a horror movie, nobody would take
them seriously. But suddenly, with this type of movie, everyone is
coming forward, which I wasn't prepared for."

"The Lords Of Salem" new poster and pictures
I haven't posted much about Rob Zombie's newest Horror film "The Lords Of Salem", but it really does look like a pretty good film. I did enjoy his re-imagining of "Halloween" it was pretty fun wasn't as good as John Carpenters obviously but that was an all time classic.
"Residents of Salem, Massachusetts are visited by a 300-year-old coven of witches."
