We’re less than a month away from the release of 3 From Hell, and while director Rob Zombie has been generous with the behind-the-scenes material for the past year-plus, this last week has seen a definite escalation in the film’s promotion.
Just a few days ago, we got the first official images from the Devil’s Rejects sequel, and now, USA Today has brought us one more photo to add to the collection. This one features series newcomer Richard Brake in the role of Winslow Foxworth “Foxy” Coltrane alongside Bill Moseley and Sheri Moon Zombie, who serve as two parts of the film’s titular trio.
While Moseley and Moon reprise their respective roles as Otis B. Driftwood and Baby Firefly, Sid Haig returns as killer clown Captain Spaulding. The last time we saw these three psychos, they were being shot full of holes in the final moments of 2005’s The Devil’s Rejects. For a long time, viewers assumed that their story ended there, but apparently, the murderous threesome managed to survive their barrage of bullets, and according to Zombie, 3 From Hell will pick up right where Rejects left off.
As it stands, the movie still has no official synopsis, and the trailer gave us only vague hints of what to expect in the plot department. For what it’s worth though, it looks like Otis, Baby and Spaulding are all under arrest, though that apparently won’t stop them from enacting plenty more carnage.
Seeing how filming wrapped back in April of last year, 3 From Hell has certainly been a long time coming, but you can judge for yourself if the wait was worth it when the flick hits theaters on September 16th.
