Editorial Review:

Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 01/08/2008 Run time: 109 minutes Rating: R
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:

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... more info

Loved it!:

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... more info

Great Gorry Cheese:

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.

Three Of A Kind...:

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,... more info
