This is a really great film! Something that no one has mentioned about this movie is that the character development is compelling. In The Devil's Rejects, Baby's not laughing anymore, we get to see that Otis is the butt of jokes in the family, and Captain Spaulding is no longer just a fun, crazy, weird clown guy. The relationship of the three is explored in more detail, which I found fascinating.
Priscilla Barnes gives a fantastic performance; the tension is torturous; the black humour is grisly; and the "roadkill" scene is shocking and straightforward.
The finale actually redeems these characters to some extent, which may seem almost impossible - but Zombie delivers!
I just want to say that Rob Zombie is an amazingly talented man: music, comic books, and now film. One can see his development as a film maker from 1,000 Corpses, through The Devil's Rejects, to Halloween. This is one smart guy with a hell of a lot of talent. I'm a Zombie fan, to be sure! I'm looking forward to whatever else he's going to pull out of his creative hat. Who says there are no Renaissance men in popular culture?
Part II in the twisted saga that was "House of 1,000 Corpses" continues, and I wish that this would never end. Rob Zombie, God love him had the sense to carry these characters to the next level. The "family" takes a road trip after a vigilante sheriff comes-a-gunnin' for 'em. This time, they're lookin' for a hiding place and of course, people are gonna die along the way. This isn't so much a review of the movie (as there's plenty of that here on amazon) as it is a "two-cent" approval from someone who loves old 70's schlock. Zombie nails it as he re-creates the fun of movie horrors in days gone by.
