So how do you really feel?

Ok, here is how I think about it.

H1000C is like a Rob Zombie video. Horror-ish but fun at the same time. Imagery comparable to EC comics and the like. It obviously has serious tones to it, but for the most part-you could find yourself giggling at the “shocking” stuff.

DR to me is comparable to Last House on the Left in it’s tone. It’s not fun, it’s not a good time, but unlike Last House on the Left I find it’s “shocking” stuff there just for the sake of shock value.

…and then came a little movie called Halloween…

the only redeeming quality…danielle harris.

Fair enough – I don’t like cliche and the expected. The fact DR was so different than H1000C was a huge attraction for me. I don’t want to watch the same movie twice.

Nothing is wrong with being serious. It’s just that h1000c wasn’t serious, and I kind of liked that. I was expecting the same with DR and was bummed it wasn’t.

I like things to be pigeonholed, categorized and bland. Call me crazy.

i think CB was hoping Devil’s Rejects would be a little more in the vain of Screwballs.

What’s wrong with being serious? I mean not all movies can be as serious as Teen Wolf..

Seriously though – I think DR is an interesting other side look at the same kind of story. I’m glad RZ did not do the same thing as H1000C

Who is JC?

I can’t stand the devil’s rejects. Why I DO like House of 1000 corpses is because I think it is kind of done in fun. The Devil’s Rejects is just so fucking serious…it’s a bummer.

I didn’t make the office comment. I am more upset that no one remembers the tv show SHIPMATES.

I think the main thing that is wrong in including all these actors is the fact that gullible people like me watch his movies BECAUSE he is throwing all these names into his films, and then turning out a shitty product.

Truthfully, I kind of like house of 1000 corpses, but I think it’s sad that his peak was his first film…

…and his music blows.

…and my band broke up.

…and his wife is ugly.

…and his music blows.

…and shipmates was a great show.

…and his music blows.

What’s wrong with including a bunch of great actors in his movie family, Mosley, Foresythe, Haig, they’re the shit! I dislike the fact Sheri is in all his flick, except for the fact she’s great eye candy.
