The Devil's Rejects [Blu-ray]

Director: Rob Zombie Rob Zombie

Overview

Directed by the prolific Rob Zombie, The Devil's Rejects is a sequel of sorts to 2003's House of 1000 Corpses, and picks up several weeks after House left off. This time, the clash revolves around the tribe of violent lunatics and decidedly valueless family members of the original film, who have come to be known as the "Devil's Rejects." After learning of the extended family's horrific attacks, a SWAT team is sent to take them into custody; all but their crazed Mama escape. In addition to creating a full-fledged media circus, this sends the sociopath housemates on the run, and they initiate a deadly road trip. Meanwhile, Mama has to deal with a violent, vengeful sheriff (William Forsythe). The Devil's Rejects features Bill Moseley, Sid Haig, Sheri Moon, Michael Berryman, and Ken Foree, among other cult horror regulars.

Editorial Reviews

The plot of this bloody slash-fest is fairly slim: Forced to flee when police invade their house of horrors, psychopathic family members Captain Spaulding (Sid Haig), Otis (Bill Moseley), and Baby Firefly (Sheri Moon) hole up with hostages in a shabby motel. Obsessed with capturing the killers, Sheriff Wydell (William Forsythe) pursues them relentlessly. Many people might find Rob Zombie's sequel to House of 1000 Corpses hard to stomach -- and there's no denying that it's among the most bloodcurdling works ever to secure an R-rating. But The Devil's Rejects positively tingles with raw energy and, in its own perverse way, is mesmerizing. Shot and edited with jagged, jarring cuts, the film makes viewers edgy at the outset and keeps them unsettled with brutally violent situations and grotesque images. It has an over-the-top, Grand Guignol feel, and Zombie's deliberately excessive directorial flourishes indicate that he doesn't expect anybody to take the thing seriously. The cast is studded with cult figures from '70s and '80s horror films, including Mary Woronov, Geoffrey Lewis, P. J. Soles, Michael Berryman, and even porn-star-cum-B-movie-starlet Ginger Lynn Allen. We'd give a special Cult Movies Hall of Fame award to 50-something Priscilla Barnes, former Three's Company costar and B-film regular, who allows herself to be stripped and brutalized in a particularly shocking sequence. (Talk about going above and beyond the call of duty!) This movie is catnip to horror fans of the splatterpunk generation, and other genre aficionados should give it a try.
