Homicidal maniacs have a field day in Rob Zombie's The Devil's Rejects, an ultraviolent spin-off from Zombie's critically reviled 2003 debut, House of 1,000 Corpses. As Zombie continues to cultivate his name-brand variety of extreme horror and splatter-film homage, he definitely takes his place among connoisseurs of carnage. In the case of The Devil's Rejects, several characters from 1,000 Corpses return for another marathon of mayhem, as the murderous Firefly family (led by Sid Haig as the maniacal "Captain Spaulding") turn their bloody wrath against hostages in a fleabag motel, while the local sheriff (William Forsythe) plots revenge against them for the killing of his brother. Before their inevitable showdown, Zombie has plenty of fun--perhaps a little too much fun--indulging his penchant for sick, sadistic humor and gruesome atrocity. Clearly, Zombie fancies himself as horror's answer to Quentin Tarantino, but he lacks Tarantino's gift for riveting plots and escalating tension. Instead, The Devil's Rejects is just raw, rampant excess from start to finish, paying visual tribute to gruesome classics from the '70s and guaranteed to earn the cult status that Zombie is all too obviously aiming for. He's an unabashed horror buff who's carving a niche in the genre he loves, shamelessly satisfying a small but loyal audience of sicko-phants. --Jeff Shannon

 More than a gore flick December 2, 2008
Nietzsche's Girlfriend (In a very good place)
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?
Loved it! November 22, 2008

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.

As much as people hate in this movie, any true horror fan cannot dispute it's exploitive charm. Constant female nudity, endless gore, and a great soundtrack make this movie a must have for campy horror fans.

I wasn't a big fan of HOUSE OF 1,000 CORPSES, so I figured that THE DEVIL'S REJECTS would be another 3-star movie at best. Well, I was wrong. TDR is a nice improvement over Rob Zombie's first effort. The Firefly family returns, just as vile, reprehensible, and disgusting as ever. Otis (Bill Moseley), Baby (Sheri Moon Zombie), and Captain Spaulding (Sid "Spider Baby" Haig) hit the road after the police raid the family compound. The rest is a murder spree, w/ a few unfortunate victims being humiliated, mutilated, and killed. What makes this one interesting is the character of Sheriff Wydell, who is out to avenge the death of his brother at the hands of this sadistic family of loons. Is this movie uplifting? No. Is it deep or socially redeeming? Nah, but it is what it's supposed to be, an exploitation / shock movie w/ a vicious sense of humor! This time, instead of TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, Zombie draws from movies like LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT, IN COLD BLOOD, THE SADIST, etc. in order to bash our heads in w/ the wickedness of this trio! Should mentally unstable people watch such a film as this? I don't know, but for the rest of us, it's a harmless enough diversion. Like some have mentioned already, the most frightening thing about the Fireflys is that they could really be out there somewhere! The news is full of humanoids that do not care one bit about anyone / anything but their own survival. Any one of us could wind up in the wrong place at the wrong time. THAT is why movies like this work! There's always the possibility of meeting up w/ a monster and not being able to yell, "Cut!"...

The Devil's Rejects is a pretty good sequel to House of 1,000 Corpses. The only problem I have with this movie is the the word; Fu#k is said too many times. Capt. Spaulding, Otis, and Baby are on the run from Sheriff Rydell. When they get to a motel, they terrorize a group of friends and kill them. Then, they go to Capt. Spaulding's brother's whorehouse and hide there. The brother betrays them and lets Rydell torture them. When they get away AGAIN, they finally come to an end in a police shoot-out on the main road. If you like Rob Zombie's work, you might like THE DEVIL'S REJECTS!!!
