Critic Reviews

Kyle Smith

A yellow dog of a movie that delights in offending the offendable. It's also a whitesploitation classic, from its menacing sideburns to its demented laughter. Read full review

Michael Rechtshaffen

It plays like "Bonnie & Clyde" as made by a committee comprised of George Romero, Sam Peckinpah, Tobe Hooper, Sergio Leone and John Waters -- but Zombie still manages to inject a pervasive flavor all his own. Read full review

Peter Hartlaub

A tough internal struggle must take place before one can come forward and admit enjoying The Devil's Rejects, a movie so fundamentally horrible that even its creator has to admit he's basically made a 101-minute snuff film. Read full review

Owen Gleiberman

Zombie doesn't pretend to be on the side of the victims. He makes no bones about his identification with the sexy outlaw serial killers. Read full review

Jack Mathews

Surely, this bloodthirsty comic farce about a sadistic backwoods family being hunted by a sadistic backwoods sheriff is the "Citizen Kane" of hix-ploitation horror. Read full review

Kevin Crust

Crass, vacuous exercise in grind-house stylistics. Read full review

Robert K. Elder

Evil isn't this boring. Read full review

If ground fisher is a "fan" of the horror genre, he's got the wrong idea...why over-analyze a movie, with your "one-dimensional" and "substance" bulls..., that was made for pure entertainment purposes in the first place. Look at the classics for god sakes, haha yeah, Bruce Campell is a If ground fisher is a "fan" of the horror genre, he's got the wrong idea...why over-analyze a movie, with your "one-dimensional" and "substance" bulls..., that was made for pure entertainment purposes in the first place.

This is a great movie. how many horror movies have actually had the ability to make you feel bad for the sick twisted degenerates at the end. I know the answer for me is 1, and its this movie.

Every scene appears to have been story-boarded.

While I feel like this film failed to live up to the intensity and disturbing cinematography that House Of 1000 Corpses seemed to achieve so effortlessly, it was still a decent flick, although a very different all together vibe than the first film. I thought the ending was well done.While I feel like this film failed to live up to the intensity and disturbing cinematography that House Of 1000 Corpses seemed to achieve so effortlessly, it was still a decent flick, although a very different all together vibe than the first film.

No where near as good as the first film imo. Solid performances by the cast and it is interesting to watch. However, The ending completely sucked imo.

This is a film for idiots. Never before has one movie so astutely singled out the lowest common denominator from its demographic. It isn't funny, it isn't clever, its badly structured and the direction is indescribably hamfisted. A film this pointless and stupid will be forgotten This is a film for idiots. Never before has one movie so astutely singled out the lowest common denominator from its demographic. It isn't funny, it isn't clever, its badly structured and the direction is indescribably hamfisted. A film this pointless and stupid will be forgotten soon enough, and deservedly so. I'm a huge, HUGE fan of both the horror genre, and its mid 1970's heyday. But, and this is very important, the films of that period were made by disillusioned intellectuals. not meatheaded, petulant antagonists who haven't got a clue about the artistry of the cinematic medium. Where is the subtext? Where are the genuine shocks? Where is the invention? This film is utterly, inarguably appalling. Anyone that doesn't agree, I'd wager, has problems when attempting to spell their own name.… Expand
