Great movie. Best of Rob Zombie.
great sequel to the piece of crap 1st movie!!!!
This movie is really overrated! It was good, but not that good!
Greatest…..EVER.
And the Oscar goes to Bill Moseley for his role as Otis Driftwood. The guy was so scary and REAL that he still invades my mind any chance he can!
Another great horror movie made by Rob Zombie and his twisted mind. The only thing in this movie that made me mad was it didnt say where Dr. Satan was or anything about him. But this was a good movie and a great way to end it for the Firefly gang.
One of the best horror films of the 2000′s
What am I missing here? I must be the only person to hate this film…
I’ve seen shed loads of horror films. My favorites are Dawn Of The Dead/[REC]/Henry Portrait of a serial killer/Ring and The Thing. I could go on. This film reminded me of the beginning of From Dusk Till Dawn, which is a good film. But this film stole a lot from other horror films, which is fine. The directing is excellent but I personally found it boring. I was waiting for a great story but all I got was unlikeable characters, throwing their weight around, being so over the top deliberately, which has been done over and over and it’s boring. The was no originality in this film. I think it was like charles manson on a day out too much sugar in his system.
It was weak, and like most of zombies music, the production was weak too. It tried too hard to be original and comical, but just didn’t deliver.
Firefly really annoyed me so much as a character al i wanted to do was smash her face in.
The ending was real bad too, like Bonnie and Clyde meets Thelma and Louise. I know Zombie has good knowledge of horror, so why doesn’t he work on originality. It’s boring now and i bet if it hadn’t had zombie’s name on it people wouldn’t rate this film at all
One of my all time favorite movies. Otis Driftwood also one of my favorite characters. I also never fail to cry at the end of the film.
Certainly better than House of 1000 Corpses, but that doesn’t mean it’s good. Shock and gore to the max without really building anything up. Not building anything up means that you have nothing to knock down. I couldn’t help but laugh during the final shoot out. When “Free Bird” starts playing and the film turns into a bad all-slow-motion music video better suited for ripping on by Beavis and Butthead, I couldn’t hold back any more. “Hey, Beavis…we should like, get some guns, and like go on a killing spree and stuff…That would be cool…Huh,huh,huh.”
An improvement in filmmaking for Rob.
i rate this movie a 10 because it was soo cool and i love it
I love rob zombie: the characters are stunning and the movie is marvelous(as usual). only 10
The best horror films !!
Now, I will selfishly admit that besides “bits and pieces” (a term which so appropriately applies to movies of this sort), I hadn’t seen the predecessor to “The Devil’s Rejects” (“House of 1,000 Corpses”) previously. There just wasn’t a lure to it. It advertised itself as a half-hearted “Texas Chainsaw” rip-off.
Well, I’d say “The Devil’s Rejects” is the closest thing to a modern “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” we’ve received. It’s characters are glorious in their vileness and despicability. The violence and gore is nothing short of desensitizing. Last but not least, this is Rob Zombie’s finest hour (thus far) behind the camera and the horror film he was meant to make.
Zombies trademarks work for “The Devil’s Rejects” as it truly raises the film to the vulgar, shocking experience that it is. Perhaps this is what audiences felt in the 70s when watching TCM for the first time? There is a constant sense of unease in the film, and its tone, which is almost joyous in its violence and existence, is what really will disturb audiences.
“The Devil’s Rejects” is violent, unforgiving, and wickedly satirical; it is without a doubt Zombie’s trademark film.
And to think if it wasn’t for House of 1000 Corpses we would never of had this amazing movie!! From the opening scene to the closing Rejects keeps you on the edge of your seat. I loved the way the carictors worked off eachother it was great, the dialog was sharp and fast leaving us with some of the best movie quotes ever!!! I loved this movie and will never get tired of watching… Rob Zombie redeemed himself with this one for sure; too bad he had to go and butcher Halloween!!! I give THE DEVILS REJECTS 10 Faceless Husbands in the Desert out of 10 Faceless Husbands in the Desert!!!
Now I’m not a huge fan of Rob Zombie’s work, I found ‘House of 1000 Corpses’ to be mostly boring and judging on its very interesting premise, strange lacking, and ‘Halloween’ to be a decent remake that goes from depressing and 3-dimensional to a standard 2D slasher. ‘The Devil’s Rejects’, on the other hand, it’s a very good film – it’s the film that showcases Zombie’s directorial talents more than any other one of his films – has the best acting and writing of all, and even though I don’t consider it a horror film at all, it’s very depraved, sick, disgusting, brutal and gory.
Wont You Fly High Freebird!
I can’t believe what I’m reading! This is a true masterpiece, by far the best “new breed” of horror for a new genre. I’m tired of hearing “Rob Zombie stole….”. He simply borrowed some O.K. bits and intensifyed to a different story. What genious work to make you hate the family in House of a 1000 corpses just to make you change your mind about them in Devils Rejects, And what an ending as well. Long live Cpt. Spaulding, Otis, Baby, Tiny, and the rest of the Firefly Gang. I cant wait to catch up with and re-new myself with some of the Characters in El Superbeasto and Tyranasourus Rex. What Rob Zombie is creating with his movies is a big risk, There not always goin to be sequels but will keep you familier with the ones hes’ already created, keep in mind, this has not been attempted by another director. I was very pleased to read about Spauling and Otis in El Superbeasto. Just keep there insanity reigning in future movies Rob
genius. makes house of 100 corpses look like a different writer. bill moseley is brilliant. truely disturbing.
ok so i really liked this movie and i absolutely love rob zombie but i do have one complaint.
its not gorey enough, house of 1000 corpses taxidermies a guy, skins a guy, scalps a guy. you dont really see much in this movie i always heard it was extremely gorey but beggers cant be choosers and over all i loved this movie, the effects, the music, & the look was amazing.
this was agreat compement to the first movie i am with sixxchik their was not enough gore by a long shot. My favorite thing about this movie was that finally the psychos are the ones being torchered, i have been waiting for a movie like this for a long time. overall it was amazing i can’t wait for rob’s next movie.
AWESOME!!!
more realistic and horrifying than zombie’s house of 1,000 corpses, i still prefer the 1,000 corpses one over this because i like films with comedy in it, even if it’s horror, and this movie takes itself very very seriously, which depending on the taste of the person, is good or bad.
I think Rob Zombie is an amazing director and his movies are just crazy. House of 1000 Corpses was a great classic horror movie and when Devils Rejects came out my jaw dropped. His characters in this movie are so different from house, not in their sadistic nature but they are not as flashy. I like the fact that the film is darker cause the flashiness of house just wouldnt have worked in this film. Zombie knows how to make a horror movie and I cant wait to see what he does in the future. Halloween was amazing also.
I really have no idea what I honestly thought about The Devil’s Rejects. Half of me thinks it was genius, the other half–probably my more truthful side–thinks it was just another lame movie without a plot. But maybe it’s both. Personally, I’ve always liked Rob Zombie’s gritty style because no one else in the movie industry today seems to be able to be able to do true grit without true cheese. I wasn’t impressed with Halloween, and I’ve never seen House of 1000 Corpses, but I’m pretty sure The Devil’s Rejects is his best work, and it is a good movie. But at the same time it isn’t.
The good–
Tell me honestly, when was the last time you remembered the first name of a character in a movie, much less their “personality” (which usually consists of just being a mouth to spout pointless dialogue)? Being honest, I can’t remember the name of the main character of the last movie I watched two days ago. In The Devil’s Rejects, however, the characters are truly memorable. Every actor working in the movie plays their character realistically and gives him/her, well . . . character. None of them are stupid, and none of them are a cliché.
The shootout in the beginning of the film is simply breathtaking. Why can’t half the shootouts in movies be that good? People complain this movie had no buildup, but what is wrong with that? At this age of cinema, we already know how movies like this end–buildup just bores us. This isn’t Alien–where the suspense was essential–this is a gritty horror movie that can deliver punches without the hour of pointless dialogue and suspense. Adding suspense to something like this is like trying to characterize a cliché character–it’s unnecessary and just silly. I’m glad Rob Zombie gets that, because it seems like no one else industry does. There was not a word of dialogue spoken that didn’t have some significance to the overall effect, and that is something that truly needs to be praised.
Technical details, like the soundtrack and the directing, are all stellar. Once again, it’s been a long time I’ve seen music used right in a film. None of that boring classical crap that just makes me laugh. I mean, someone’s getting their tongue cut and Bach is blaring in the background. I just find that retarded. Zombie, however, understands how to choose music that fits the mood of the scene, thank God.
The bad–
The huge, glairing problem that keeps me from writing a positive review of this film is there is no plot. It’s sad to see such an amazingly done movie just dull because there is literally NO plot. You just watch The Devil’s Rejects (the characters, not the movie) run from place to place and that is really it. Nothing happens. Yes, the characters are amazing, the music rules, and the action is excellent–NOTHING happens. I wanted so bad to really like this movie, but that fact killed the entire movie for me.
The gore really is nothing special. Everyone is talking about how brutal and sick this movie is, but, sorry, it isn’t that graphic or extreme. At all. It earns its R-rating, unlike the majority of films, but calling it hardcore gore isn’t exactly true. The gore takes up maybe 10 minutes of the screen time, and that’s all. When it happens there is zero intensity, and zero brutality. The gore is pretty generic.
Overall: this is a horror movie that really deserves to be watched. It’s so much better than most of the crap out there, even though I really wasn’t that impressed with it. It is not a rip-off of anything. It’s just a well-made movie without great characters . . . and no plot.
this is just a no plot red neck movie that rob is known for
One of my favorites. At first I didn’t want to watch it but once I did it turned out to be totally worth it.
I loved this film and those who think Zombie doesnt have any talent obvisously dont know what the hell a good movie is and should just go watch movie that are just like all the others and shut the fuck up.
Just finished watching this film. Really, really friggin’ good. Sir Zombie did fantastic. The story line I loved, the acting great, music was awesome, and the characters were just plain awesome. Not as gory as I wanted it to be, but still really nice. This is a brilliant movie and is totally worth the watch. 100% recommended to Rob Zombie fans.
I normally hate torture movies because they try to rely on gore. Every time I watch one, I’m disappointed because I can come up with more creative torture. This movie however relies on character evolution and what better characters to evolve with are there? Every member of the Firefly Family is pure brilliance played by the best actors that get ignored by big budget movies. Captain Spaulding alone should be on the top 10 list of any best movie character list and it’s a shame that actors like Sid Haig and Bill Mosely get passed up for Oscar nods because they’re in an unrespected genre. This is what every torture movie should strive to be. Thank you Rob Zombie for giving me such an inspired movie. Thank you.
One of the best movies I have ever seen. F-ing awesome. Captin Spalding is the bomb and baby is the finest woman ever to inhabit the planet.
This movie was beautiful. I know with the content it doesn’t seem so, but the music, the charachters, the directing, and the effects made it into a masterpeice. It’s completely different from it’s predecessor. But they’re both amazing films.
This movie was great a good compliment to House of 1000 Corpses,even though they r two totally diff movies. The acting , directing and music were top notch and whats with the people saying that there is no plot [waht the f***] they must stop watchin movies period, its obvious what the plot is!!!!!!!!!
This movie is absolutely fantastic. I remember taking my girlfriend, friend and his girlfriend to this when it came out. My friend’s girlfriend was absolutely appalled by the movie and if you knew her you’d know right then how great this movie is. The rest of us loved it. Bought it on dvd the day it came out and still love to watch this. With Rob Zombie you cannot go wrong.
Great, great and great!
First of all, and strangely as it may seem since it’s a very recent one, this movie carries a somewhat close resemblance to one of my favorite movies of all time, the 1974 Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Less raw, but you can’t expect anything else from today’s movies, really.
Second, this sequel is actually better then its predecessor (and the ones that are familiar with my movie tastes know that I usually NEVER say this), since the House of a Thousand Corpses had a very exaggerated phantasized ending, IMO.
Third, the soundtrack is simply amazing and very well suited for this kind of movies, which is not as easy to pull off as it may seem.
Fourth, the way the family is portrayed in the movie. Breathtaking. Psycho killer tendencies vs. strict familiar ties and values. Gotta love it.
And last but not least… Sheri Moon Zombie! Wow. I mean WOW! Though she had already made my knees tremble in the first one.
Watch it, you’ll know what I mean.
If you watch it and still fail to see all i just wrote in here… then stay the hell away from my profile!
No, seriously, go away.
Deranged, unsettling, disturbing, immoral are just some of the thousands of words that could be used to describe this movie. This is one of the most terrible films I have ever seen, but I mean that in a good way. This is a solid movie that does not hold anything back. While watching this movie you may begin to feel like a bad person and that you just want to go take a shower to rid yourself of the filthy feeling you get when watching The Devils Rejects. No matter how gross and disturbing, this film is Supposed to be this way, it raises several moral questions and feelings inside yourself that you have probably never felt before. This movie will truly help you appreciate the goodness in most people and understand what may be going through the minds and reasoning behind the eyes of the corrupt, which makes this an absolute MASTERPIECE
Dissapointing gorefest that that isn’t even half as good as the first.How can you expect me to feel bad for characters that have absolutely no redeeming qualitys?Oh,and way to ruin freebird Rob…Good one.
Great movie
amazing fucking movie and my favorite horror flick…all the characters as sadistic as alwys and the skinned face mask on the girlfriend….CLASSIC…kudos to this film and to Rob Zombie.
This was awful. House of 1000 Corpses was awful. As far as directing decent horror movies goes, Rob Zombie is like a retarded child on a tricycle with a broken wheel, pedalling furiously. Rob, Texas Chain Saw Massacre already exists, so fuck off with trying to make half assed shitty rip offs of it. Thanks.
I was really, REALLY surprised by this movie. For the most part I didn’t care for House of 1000 Corpses, and Rob Zombie’s directing style normally makes me want to nerd-rage to the extreme. I’m not even sure what possessed me to watch The Devil’s Rejects to be honest, lol. But I’m glad I did. It’s actually one of the most straight-up entertaining and satisfying horror movies I’ve seen in a long time. Good sadistic fun from start to finish!
i give rob zombie alot of flack that i think the man deserves. halloween was an abomination. 1000 corpses was more like an acid trip than a movie, but this on the other hand…. i am a huge fan of exploitation movies, so this is my kind of thing. if zombie stuck to this, and not remakes, and music video style flicks, i would have no problem with him. personally, i thought william forsythe should have been nominated for an oscar for his character. for the two hour run time, i didnt hate rob zombie.
Rob zombie did a excellent job on this film. It is a masterpiece. The characters were awesome, Captain spaulding was my favorite by far. The character development was extremely good and the movie made you go for the villians rather than the heroes. I was so relieved when that cop finally died, he was a pain in the ass! The dialogue was hilarious, I found myself bursting out laughing at times. I love it when horror movies have a bit of dark humor here and there. It makes the movie more enjoyable. This movie really made you have a stronger connection with the villians, and you felt angry or tense when they were in danger.
The violence was really good, there wasn’t a huge amount of it, but it still had it’s brutal moments. The torture scenes were sick and sadistic and totally wicked. It had a few scenes of sexual torture that were disturbing. I thought that it made the whole movie alot better without heaps and heaps of gore, the torture scenes were brutal at times but not as gory or sick as scenes from saw or hostel. So credit goes to rob for not making a full on gore fest.
The storyline was great, it picked up straight from the house of 1000 corpses. The ending was awesome but sad, it was a great way to end the movie though. There was lots of times when I thought the movie was about to end and then it cuts to another scene. So that was cool, the ending caught me off guard and made the movie so much better.
Overall the devils rejects was a kick ass movie. Much better then rob’s disgusting, mutilated unholy hell spawn remake of halloween which was average and dull. House of 1000 corpses was good but no where near as good as the devils rejects. I give this movie a 8.5/10
overrated
Very good movie. I enjoyed it much more than the first one (1,000 Corpses), the same way enjoyed Hostel 2 more than the first. I LOVED the cop. He definitely was the highlight of the movie. Crazy, ass-kicking good (urm, goodish?) guy. I was really hoping they would keep him around for more of the movie. 7/10 without the cop, 9/10 with. Almost a masterpiece.
Let it be known that 9 out of 10 times i HATE new horror films. (I dont consider this a horror movie, but whatever) But Rob Zombie has yet to dissapoint me. Great Flick.
this movie is kickass. the ending is my favorite part. Rob Zombie for sure has a way with putting just the right music into his movies. Same with Halloween and House of 1000 corpses. Any one know when the Haunted world of el superbeasto is finally being released?
I adore this movie. Plain and simple. It is one of those films where I absolutely loved the villains to no end that it was actually sad for me to watch them slowly go down in flames. But despite that, I loved every minute of it. Zombie did a great job with this film and how he slowly manipulates the characters until you realize that the good guys are no different from the bad. In the end the is no line separating each from each other and that is another reason why it is such an engrossing film. Honestly I think that this is a perfect companion piece to House of 1000 Corpses because it presents the viewer with so much more depth to the Firefly family. Mind you it is not really a horror movie but that should not stop you because it is still plenty bloody. All in all, top-notch.
After i left the theater i felt dirty like i just watched something i wasnt supposed to see. This is an instant classic a must for any horror movie fan.
Rob Zombie keep making movies liek this, this movie is sick.
THIS IS A GOOD MOVIE…COULD
A USED A LIL BIT MORE BLOOD.
I LOVE THE CHICKEN FUCKING SCENE!
H518
this was a really good movie…sheri moon was great…the story was good…way better than ho1000c…..definitely one of the best of 05!!!!!
I do not claim to be a pro in the world of horror films but as a rookie i am starting to really fall in love with the genre. I owe this to Rob Zombies “Devils Rejects”. I had not really heard much about the Devils Rejects but i much prefer to watch a film with an open mind and rather than being pre pumped full of critical ideas and opinions.
What really amazes me about this film is firstly the quality of the acting and secondly the whole look and setting of the movie. Its hard to imagine any member of the devils reject gang being played by anyone else and Forsythes take on the hard and gritty Sheriff John Wydell is nothing short of epic.
Rob Zombies direction is brilliant and he goes to the very edge of creation to build a world to immerse us in, this is particularly impressive on a $5 million budget.
Devils Rejects has a great re-watch value and is just as enjoyable to watch every time. One thing to mention is the more i watch this the more i feel it sways more to an dark action flick rather than a horror film. This is due to it being a truelly different kind of horror film without the generic slow music and creepy floor boards.
Just Brilliant.
I thought was does Rob Zombie have to throw it in your face?…..because this is awful movie….I am glad I saw it on comcast and didn;t rent it waste of money…..I like horror films but this one was crap…..then ending give me a brake the song free bird was good but slow motion ending nope this movie sucks.
Cool. This was even better than the first. From the opening scene you know the film is going to be gorey, and filled with black comedy which fully fits in, with these characters. WHat i love is how the whole film has this old time feel about it, and you loose your mind while watching for almost 2 hours. I really love how Rob Zombie has made a sequel that noy only delivers, but really proves that sequels can overrun their preceeders.
The plot was really well written, and the dialogue in the film was so smart for the characters, and really it felt like walking back to “House Of 1000 Corpse”. The plot was yes simple, but with only a few settings, the dialogue really had to make the movie enjoyable, and being a sadistic family it really was fun to watch.
The acting was pretty good and “Sheri Moon Zombie” having a fun role. The acting was believable, and really entertaining to watch the actors giving their own touch to their role.
Overall “The Devils Rejects” runs over it preceeder, and is one of few genre films that has added hymour which fits right in. My rating is 3.5/5
I love the soundtrack to this movie. Plus, Otis is a complete bad-ass and Sheri Moon Zombie is gorgeous as always. completely different than and much better than house of 1,000 corpses.
now thats a movie ,brilliant zombies best for sure…and a great soundtrack to boot!
this is my favorite horror movie of all time….even though my FAVORITE movies are zombie movies, this easily takes the WHOLE fuckin cake. a masterpiece
BALLS OUT……..Makes ya feel dirty just watching it!!!! Pure Genius to say the least. If you haven’t seen it yet hurry and get a copy and start the festivities!!!! You won’t be disappointed. Not for the faint hearted!!!!
Rob Does it again. This is way better than H1000C(house is still great though) its everything a horror movie should be shocking,disturbing,and so bad ass you cheer when everything unravels. A work of genious. A must own for true horror fans
cool.
Now Hollywood is a happy place, they come out with movies with happy endings and sweet, cut away, horror movies, THAT ARE F***ING PG-13 GOD DAMMIT, and they have love stories and that basic little expected twist to make the audience feel good. Then The Devil’s Rejects comes along and f***s all of that up.
I watched this movie without alot of hype, the way I like it, and loving the first one wanting it to be a good movie, but back when I saw it I was like 12 or 13 so anything is good if violent lol. But anyways this movie relly kicks ass, right in the ass. Is it as f***ed as older movies were? No, but it comes pretty close, this movie has a pretty disturbing hard to watch rape scene-ish scene in it, and the hotel room is just so perfect……..You gotta give this movie props for makin it to theaters. They don’t normally release mvies with non-happy endings and sh** like that, but here they do and among some others.
Watch this movie if you want a good fun horror movie with some awesome characters in it. ESPECIALLY TINY WHO MADE ME, literally, F***ING CLAP AT THE END OF THIS MOVIE. 9/10!
This plus H1000C shows you that Rob Zombie knows WHAT THE FUCK HE IS DOING. Who can take a prequel, make you hate and be utterly disgusted with the villians, only to turn it around and have to cheering for them in the sequel???? 10/10 this movie ranks right up there with the best of them. As someone said below me, it makes you feel DIRTY watching it. A great flick.
Amazing movie!
this movie was ridiculous and amazing, but this seemed more like a drama movie to me than a horror film…
One of my favorite horror movies ever made… The perfect completion to a wonderful ride. This movie is everything in a horror in one… Its sick, orginal, surperbly acted, and masterfully put together.. This is the a PERFECT MOVIE IMO… Zombie is goin to be huge for horror in the years to come…
AWSOME!!! people critisized RZ for H1000C, because they didnt understand it. Then he came out w/ the sequal and filmed it more like a “typical movie” and stilled kicked ass! great movie the ending is phenominal, greatly done, filmed, and put together.
Deff. one of my Fav.s!! RZ never disappoints!
This movie will NEVER get old
Rob Zombie strikes again!
Awesome movie.
Can’t believe I haven’t reviewed this one yet. It’s already a horror classic in my eyes. Rob Zombie’s best. Pure gritty pulp exploitation throwback, and a great sequel!
one of my favorite horror movies.
an amazing visionary look into the psychobilly mind. rob zombie does a great jbo on this film.
a very gritty and raw film.
scary and definitely enjoyable.
zombies second film and so far his best film to date.
Love it! Rob Zombie knows how to make movies! I will be watching every film that he makes.
The Devil’s Rejects is just plain wrong. Ont worth watching because you’re not really watching anything except for a couple of rednecks being rednecks with a hint of a murderous obsession.
This movie is so pointless, I could imagine Zombie saying, “Okay, just do something that will make yo momma hate you if she saw you right now.” while shooting this film. What a waste of time.
A modern classic!
intense and fantastic the kills are amazing and disturbing sherri moon was just out of this world good deffinetely a step up from house of 1000 amazing amazing movie cannot recommend enough go watch now
This definitely is one great movie! Quite better that house of 1000 corps
yeah when i first watched the devils rejects i was not really into the movie ..then i started watching it again and again and in was thinking this movie is fucking sick i fell in love with the characthers and the story which was good..this is rob zombie’s best work so far and i really enjoyed watching this movie all the time
Love this movie, Rob Zombie turned a cop into one crazy ass mother fucker. Plus listening to “Free Bird” while people are getting shoot to hell is cool as hell
love this movie.
This was a good movie… loved the story line… amazing kills… and well all out amazing
I enjoyed this film a lot more than its predecessor, because it seemed like Rob took his time with this film, while House of 1000 Corpses felt rushed and it was too much like Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but he made an original film about wackos on the run. I can easily recommend this film to all my fellow infected peers.
Fantastic movie. I haven’t seen the first one but I loved the characters in this sequel. And the killings were excellent. Much more believable than most gore movies.
Awesome movie. This is not a sequel but a spin off and if you expect it to be like house of 1000 corpses you will be dissapointed and you shouldn’t instead expect a more original story than the first. Free bird is always awesome to include in a movie.
Mrmcd666 gets this one completely correct. The one and only Zombie film (so far- I never give up on any artist) that can actually be enjoyed by anyone with a reasonable taste in films (joking, Zombie-lovers). I like, no LOVE, this movie, because Zombie ACTUALLY does something original. And does it quite well.
amazing film
I like house of 1000 corpses better, but over all a pretty good movie
Great movie about the insane family from House of 1000 Corpses. Rob Zombie’s best film.
I’m not normally a fan of movies that mix humor with horror, but this film exceeded my expectations. Its brutal and raw, with a touch of sarcasm. Perfect.
The characters are by far the some of interesting I’ve ever seen in a film; this is definitely Zombie’s best work to date.
this is one of my favorite horror movies of all times! it was so raw and brutal and so very unsettling and very disturbing. the acting was phenomenal and the story line was great. it was such an intense movie! i loved house of 1000 corpses but i feel this one is better which is so rare to see a sequel that is better than the first.
A great movie.
Fun to watch.
Reccomended!
Rob Zombie crafted one of the greatest horror sequels ever with this flick. A perfect mix of gritty brutality and road movie swagger. He totally immerses you in the white trash sleaze of this story.
best zombie ever
Rob Zombies best film. He should do more movies like this.
I love this movie. Haha it helps that I think Sheri Moon is awesome, but really, Rob Zombie’s movies are just excellent.
Great movie. I loved House of a 1000 corpses and the transition from that film to this one was incredible. Maniacs on the run leaving a trail of bodies behind not letting anything hold them back and the ending was done so well that I think I sheed a tear. Rob Zombie created one hell of a movie.
I loved HOTC but I don’t se the love for this one.I even enjoyed Rob’s versions of the Halloweens love his music.Rob to me is one of the most talented musicians and directors and someone I look up to.lol, but idk I just didn’t get this movie.It was just too disturbing.I can handle it to a point but this was too much.Maybe since a lot more has come since I need to watch it again and wouldnt feel that way.idk
A gritty, dirty, violent, 70s action movie made in the 2000s.
A true horror masterpiece!I love the fact that Zombie took these characters to a whole new level of creepy and grimy!At first your against the villains and rooting for the cops and then flips the script to the point were your rooting for the villains and not the cops!Everything the Original Texas Chainsaw massacre strives at and a little extra!If you don’t like this then the terrorists win!
Legendary sequels bloody brutal love it!!!
Rob Zombie might have fucked up on `HALLOWEEN’ and ‘HALLOWEEN II’ but this movie is great. He should stick to this dirty, dusty Texas-Hillbilly style. I like the characters he invented and the lightning on the scenes. Sometimes it’s almost like watching a TV documentary! A real eye catcher this time is Sheri Moon Zombie (Rob Zombies wife)! I love the way she can switch from the cute naughty to the killer bitch in just a blink of an eye! Okay, you might say now, this is the typical sick, gory killer cliché and in many ways you would be right, the story is simple and the dialogues are not the most intelligent ones but if you’re on the look for one kick ass, filthy, violent road movie with a crazy cast,you just found it!
What a masterpiece of work! Best movie Rob Zombies has made to date.
This is honestly the best movie on the face of the earth. It’s completely pointless, but fantastic in the strangest way. I fell in love with every character in the movie, and when they were being tortured at the end I felt so much sympathy for them. Baby was my absolute favorite for her sick and twisted innocence. If you have never seen this movie, then you should. It’s perfect.
Part Damien Hirst, part Quentin Tarantino, Rob Zombie delivers a stylish and deranged piece of cinematic excellence. As grotesque and disturbing as it was (the pistol/panty scene really pushed the envelope in the worst possible way), this movie is a true horror classic. In a similar way that Tarantino pays tribute to B-movies resulting in genius works of art, Zombie pays tribute to the best and worse of many movie genres with a mesmerising and impressive outcome. 9/10
Fans of a House of a thousand corpses are in store for another kind of film entirely. The first was a brilliant and electrifying holloween movie that introduced us to oddball killers and gave us eye popping blood and gore. The devils rejects on the other hand, while still brutal, has less of that same magic. Still, it was a pretty good flic, and it was great to see the characters again, but it wasn’t the same experience. Having said that I think that Rob Zombie is clearly talented, and I’m looking forward to seeing more of his work.
goooooooooooooooooooooood.
The Devil’s Rejects is the squeal to House Of 1000 Corpses which is also directed by Rob Zombie. Both films are amazing but I think I like the squeal better, I don’t know why it’s just better. I also think it’s because it shows more of Captain Spaulding in this movie then the first one did and I really liked his character. Captain Spaulding is played by Sid Haig and he did a great job. He was creepy and a huge smart ass and very believable. This movie also had some laughable moments which the first one didn’t. What I love about a horror movie isn’t all about the blood and guts but a good story. If you can laugh throughout the movie while it’s still keeping it’s creepy, sick and twisted style then that’s a 10 in my book. A lot of movies can’t do that and it’s just cheesy and not funny. The acting is terrible and the story isn’t very good cause they spend too much timIe on their slap stick comedy then the horror *cough Drag Me To Hell cough, cough*
The devil’s Rejects starts out with a stake out at the house of the Firefly family. Baby and Otis escape and hide out in a hotel a little far away from their house. The movie continues with Baby, Otis, and Captain Spaulding running from the cops and trying to stay alive since Officer Wydell is on a mission to kill them cause they killed his brother who was also a officer in the first movie. If you like Rob Zombie and horror movies then you have to see this one including House Of 1000 Corpses cause that guy can make awesome horror movies.
I give this movie 5 out of 5 Skulls.
So nice to see an American horror movie with actors that can act. Not just put in the movie for how they look. And ofcorse great story from one of the few talents in american movie buisness. Exelent
Excellent. I love that by the end of the movie your rooting for the bad guys. I loved house of 1000 corpses too. You can’t go wrong with Captain Spaulding he’s hilarious.
A masterpiece!! Everything about this film is perfect, the script, the direction, the soundtrack, the cast, everything!!
Awful, awful, awful, not scary at all, not gorey, just rubbish.
Carrie nailed it. This film is just terrible.
Anybody who thinks this movie is bad needs to open up their fucking minds… this movie was absolutely amazing; obviously Rob Zombie’s best. Everything is great; the characters, script, environment, humor, gore, acting… it’s a great time to be had. Holds the award for the greatest ending ever filmed in my book.
although that many people hate Rob Zombie as a director,I believe that he isn’t that bad
maybe he ruined Halloween,but The Devil’s Rejects prove that he can create a movie,which is very violent without being stupid,which has characters funny and insane together and which can make the audience feel that what they saw isn’t a waste of time
and I also believe that no matter how many times you see that movie you won’t get tired of it
Better than his first film, still trash.
Humanizing the firefly family was to me, a big mistake. In house of a 1000 a least you feared them, you feared the unknown. In this film your practically part of the family and you lose all their mystery and mythos. Rooting for the bad guy is cool, but them running from the law like scared rats just doesn’t suit this family. But most importantly there was no sense of dread or eeriness. The ending was pretentious and just over the top, like I care that murders are getting the due?
amazing movie
I quote this movie on a daily basis, one of the best most disturbing movies of all time, haters gonna hate, but you’ll definitely feel a strong emotion from this movie
This movie was overrated.1000 corpses was better.Zombie’s problem is he bites other peoples shit too much.
Picking up directly where “House of 1,000 Corpses” left off, this stunning sequel to the cult classic does what is rarely accomplished in Hollywood Horror… It outshines its predecessor! Yes indeed, even with Mother Firefly being recast, it’s an undeniably better flick than “House of 1,000 Corpses”. It’s more action-packed, scarier, and even more twisted and brutal. Baby, Captain Spaulding and Otis return to unleash hell on earth to everyone that gets in their way. (And even those they seek out just for the hell of it.) Whether you’re a fan of the slasher genre, or horror in general, I think that everyone will find something that they like about this film.
A gnarly, raw and immensely entertaining through back to rednecksplotion 70′s flicks. Rob Zombie fills his sophomore feature with colorful characters, brutal violence and lively dialogue;a substantial improvement both in terms of craft and watch-ability over house of 1000 corpses, which I hated. The acting(with the exception of Sheri Moon Zombie) was some of the best i’ve seen in a horror film in quite some time. While the first half was simply good, climaxing in the hard to watch motel scene; the second half takes off like a rocket; soaring to an adrenaline soaked climax and a brilliant, fist pumping-one hell of a ending. Devils Rejects isn’t for all tastes, but for horror fans who can stomach the sadism its a blast.
Dirty, stylish, and completely insane… everything you’d expect from Rob Zombie. He definitely puts a stamp on his films. He has that Tarantino thing going where if you went into the film with no prior knowledge, you’d know you were watching a movie from him. A film you can watch over and over and not get bored. You definitely start cheering for the “bad guys”. Soundtrack is awesome.
Rob Zombie at his best.
this movie makes me horny its that good!!!
rob zombie /m
ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES EVER MADE! ONE OF MY FAVORITE MOVIES OF ALL-TIME.
Rob Zombie’s “House of 1,000 Corpses” did not appeal to me. So it’s a wonder how “The Devil’s Rejects”- being the sequel to that film and all- did.
“The Devil’s Rejects” is different as both a film and a character study than Zombie’s previous romp. Here, Zombie shows us what he can do as an energetic, inspired, and indulgent filmmaker. He’s made another divisive film, but luckily, he gets what he wants to do right.
“The Devil’s Rejects” is perturbing, violent, and sadistic; there’s no doubt about that. But it’s also well-written, and the characters are well-fleshed out. It’s a piece of work, really; and I admired how Zombie’s intent was not to exploit violence, but rather show how horrible it is. Thus, this film is violent for a reason; and I also liked how Zombie embedded dark, adult humor into the flick. Therefore, he’s a craftsman; but sadly, he’s one who does not always know what he wants to do, and who he wants to please. He hits the bulls-eye here. I liked this movie. Forget “House of 1,000 Corpses”, that gruesome exploitation flick that TRIED ever-so-hard to pay homage to Grindhouse horror; “The Devil’s Rejects” is the new sheriff in town. And it’s a proud one that practically dares you to watch it.
I was really pulled in by the development of the Firefly family, and Sid Haig is always a treat to watch.
Well I only saw the movie for the first time last night and I gotta say that I was pleasantly surprised. I mean House of 1000 Corpses was a pretty good movie but I thought that this one would be a piece of shit because I know that some sequels turn out to be fucking horrible. With this particular sequel it wasn’t the case. I loved this movie. Fucking brilliant. It was fun watching the development of the Firefly family and also you feel sorry for them in a way as well. For most of the movie they were crazy,ruthless motherfuckers and that’s what I loved about the family in this one. Leslie Easterbrook played the role of Mama Firefly perfectly and of course Sheri Moon Zombie’s role of Baby was annoying but less annoying than in House of 1000 Corpses. Sheri Moon Zombie has a nice ass though we can all agree on that. Her ass is so hot. Bill Moseley’s role of Otis was crazier than ever and of course Sid Haig as Cutter aka Papa Firefly aka Captain Spaulding. We all knew he was the daddy of the family. Damn I couldnt keep my eyes of Sheri Moon Zombie though she was hot. Well check this out if you’re a fan of House of 1000 Corpses but this is a horror/action/roadtrip movie. This is a must see though if you have seen House of 1000 Corpses.
This is one of my favorite horror movies to date. Bill Moseley,Sid Haig,Sheri Moon Zombie are awesome in this amazing film.
Story is pure awesomeness! Acting is the best in a horror film. Sound is over-the-top. Music is awesome. This movie is amazing, just amazing.
The last scene is one of the best parts of the movie. It’s funny, you are usually cheering for good guys in movie, but in this you find yourself cheering for the bad guys!
10 out of 10! Any horror fan should check this film out.
sheer genius of a film. love the whole concept and i love how it relies on tense situations as apposed to typical horror scenes. great cast, great music and great scenery. although i prefer his first film, this is by no means worse.
Zombie does a fantastic job at creating a creepy atmosphere and sustains it throughout. Otis is a truly disturbing character and you never know where he, or this movie, will go next. Kick ass soundtrack (starts with ‘Midnight Rider’ and ends with ‘Free Bird’)!! Ya, this movie doesn’t really have a plot, but who cares? Just sit back and watch murderous psychopaths to their thing.
Dare I say it’s even better than House of 1000 Corpses? Yes, yes I do.
Also, I want Sheri Moon Zombie to plant that delicious ass right on top of my face. MM MM MM, finger lickin good!

This movie really shows how much potential Rob Zombie has, so maybe he should stop remaking classics that are perfect as they are and do his own thing again, because it worked out pretty well!
best part is when they all died. Hated this movie.
House of a 1000 corpses was good but the sequel really outshines it Rob Zombie sharpens his skills with witty banter and far more disturbing psychological scenes to make you feel awkward and uncomfortable.
Thw whole way through the film I couldnt help but think of the Manson family except for the obvious connection that otis is the spitting image of manson the way he talks and controls a conversation definetly reminds me of manson plus that whole family vibe is strong and it would seem taht the events that are happen take place around the same time so everyone is free to draw their own conclusion but that is mine.
Rob zombie is going from strength to strength a brilliant film more reality than surrealism in this sequel.
Fucking great film, one of my all time favorites. Great soundtrack as well.
Amazing movie, one of Rob Zombie’s best.
