extremely well written. I've always felt that Rob Zombie would make a good horror director and while "Corpses" wasn't so well received it was only his first film. This is something else altogether.A genre masterpiece and the best movie I've seen all year. If Zombie keeps this up he will become a force to be reckoned with in the horror genre

characters. You learn history and connections, and see things from their view. C- Slight comedic aspect added. Summary: MUST SEE, MUST OWNin the words of my horror loving awe-struck friend "This is hands down the best B horror I have ever seen!"

filthiness, vulgarity, and the characters are sadistic and relentless serial killers. It is not for the feint of heart or the squeamish. There are some clever and quite humorous lines in the movie, along with some very disturbing ones as well. Sherri Moon Zombie gives a stellar performance as 'Baby' that is quite unforgettable. It was great to see P.J. Soles Halloween in this film, still looking beautiful as ever. Leslie Easterland, 'Mama Firefly', really gives an excellent performance as the perverted and disgusting mother of the clan. All of the actors did an amazing job in this movie and were very convincing as their characters.The cinematography of this film was really brilliant, and uses the 'swipe' and 'freeze-frame' methods, sometimes resembling a comic book adventure. The music was classic seventies rock, and fits well with the road trip theme. The gore was spectacular and realistic, and sometimes even disgusted me at times, which is hard to accomplish. I gave this movie a "10 out of 10" because it is full of spectacular, clever, and gruesome horror-movie fun! It contains scenes which seriously make the viewer cringe and feel sympathy for the victims, while hating the serial killers. I've never felt so much hatred and disgust towards the villains as I did during this film, and that goes to show you how convincing this movie really is! If you like Rob Zombie, seventies slashers, and a good horror movie plot, with edge of your seat/nail-biting scenes, then this is the movie for you! Check it out, its jaw-droppingly great!

very high. But I began hearing reviews from people who saw the film before it was released saying that it was very different and much better than "House". And then I saw the previews, which looked promising. So, my expectations went up just a little. However, I was still pretty weary. I just wasn't sure if I could trust Zombie. But I went into the theater with an open mind. The lights dimmed. And what I saw was the glorious return of the true horror film. Rob Zombie more than redeemed himself with this brutal, funny, and utterly spectacular film. He worked out all the pacing kinks of "House", took away the flashy neon-light look, and replaced them with a gritty, violent masterpiece of terror."The Devil's Rejects" follows the three surviving members of the psychotic murderer family from "House of 1000 Corpses", who have been given the nickname "The Devil's Rejects" by the locals. They're on the run from the police, and along the way, they just happen to engage in murder, blasphemy, and sexual abuse. The exploitation fan inside of me rejoiced. In a twisted away, I loved everything I was seeing. And on top of all of this, Rob Zombie managed to put together just about the best mix of snappy dialogue and music I've witnessed since "Pulp Fiction". He even made me dig "Freebird", and I REALLY dislike Lynyrd Skynyrd.This has been a truly wonderful summer for horror fans. First, the French terror masterpiece, "High Tension", then George A. Romero's excellent return to form, "Land of the Dead", and now, Rob Zombie's truly glorious coming-into-his-own-as-a-filmmaker, "The Devil's Rejects". Let's just hope Lion's Gate has the balls to give him another film.9/10

put everything in the movie that I wanted. It's gritty, brutal, sadistic, and one helluva fun ride. Sid Haig, Bill Mosely, and Sheri Moon ARE their characters. It was easy for me to forget that I was watching actors. And Sid simply steals every scene in which he appears. It's not to say that Mosely and Moon aren't good, but next to Sid it's tough to compete. The characters have gone through some changes since House of 1000 Corpses. If it's possible, they have a darker edge to them.I could literally write pages on everything that worked for me in the film. I could discuss the excellent supporting cast or the choice of music or some of the great set pieces or the sick, violent action or Zombie's growth as a director, but I'll just mention one of my favorite moments - the ending. Without giving too much away, the final face-off between our favorite serial killers and the police is one of the coolest moments ever put on film. I was immediately reminded of movies like The Wild Bunch and its nihilistic ending. It's a film moment that I'll never forget.I, for one, can't wait to see what Rob Zombie does next.

Hills Have Eyes feel to it. All around a great flick for the horror fan who can appreciate it.

enjoyed Leslie Easterbrook as Mother Firefly replacing Karen Black who was in the first movie, House Of 1000 Corpses . She does some wonderful overacting in her scenes, it's a shame she wasn't in it more, same goes for E.G. Daily who plays a sassy hooker. In fact everyone was great in their parts, let's face it this is not Shakespeare - this is a horror movie, I for one demand hammy over the top performances and a bit of camp! I don't want to give anything away but I will say my favourite scenes involved Mother Firefly and the sheriff, and Captain Spaulding and a mother and child. If you enjoyed House Of 1000 Corpses, this is a superior sequel in my mind and you wont be disappointed. If your idea of horror is a glossy PG-13 rated remake you might want to try weaning yourself onto this kind of movie with something a little less extreme.

CORPSES. This film takes itself much more seriously and this does not help. In fact, the fact that Zombie focuses more on horror and torture without the same level of dark humor makes the film come off as somewhat cruel. Are we to actually enjoy seeing the victims tortured? Somehow, the fun of his first film is absent. However, for those of us who have an appreciation for the films of the original 70's renegade film makers such as Tobe Hooper -- you can't help but enjoy Zombie's style of filming. This film also enjoys have some of the best southern rock ever created to serve as its soundtrack. The three lead actors stand out and give great performances, but one wishes Zombie would have allowed them to go a bit more over the top. Karen Black did not return to play Moma Firefly which is too bad, but the actress who takes over the role does a great job. In the end -- I think this is an interesting and valid second film from Rob Zombie, but I hope that he allows his cast and his audience to have a bit more fun. The world has enough torture and violence -- if we are to see it in a film it needs to give us a bit of a scare and a bit of a laugh. If only he had utilized that dark/twisted since of humor a bit more. Still, it is worth a look -- but not for those of you who get upset by violence. And, please, this is not a movie for children. There was a child at last night's screening. That poor baby is going to be scarred for life!

characters in House were going to be the focus of The Devil's Rejects. So how was Rejects? Sick, sick, sick, sick, and twisted, to the point we're I'm almost ashamed to say that I really liked it. Its not a perfect movie, but I think that it was such a big improvement on House, that I was willing to turn a blind eye to its imperfections. While people noted that House seemed like just another Texas Chainsaw Massacre rehash, this has more of the feeling of a road trip comedy albeit a tad gorier , which is enhanced by the surprisingly well written interactions between the Fireflys. There were parts that felt reminiscent of From Dusk Till Dawn and one bit that seemed almost like it was borrowed from a Roadrunner cartoon you'll know it when you see it .In terms of gore, despite my cries of "sick" in the previous paragraph, there wasn't anything I found myself unable to handle, but I did notice some members of the audience walking out at some of the more gruesome moments.There are a few bits here and there that run a bit long, but for the most part the movie is well paced, and as I said before, although I'm almost ashamed of it, I really enjoyed this movie.
