Movie Reviews of Rob Zombie 3-Disc Collector's Set
Movie Review: Mesmerized like a zombie!
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD set includes what are perhaps Rob Zombie's 2 most popular projects: THE HOUSE OF 1,000 CORPSES and THE DEVIL'S REJECTS. The third disc is a "making of" documentary which I was disinterested in watching.
REJECTS is the sequel to CORPSES. Bucking the traditional trend, I found REJECTS to be the far superior flick. Of course, "superior" is a relative term here as both movies are pretty warped.
The films center around a dysfunctional, twisted family of murderers. It would seem to me that Rob had inspiration from the Manson family murders of 1969 as his "model" for his group of sadists. There are some obvious differences; the Manson "family" was a family in name only as it was a commune / cult. Rob's goobers, meanwhile, are an actual family. Also, the Mansons had a misguided political agenda, whereas Rob's goobers just like to torture & kill people - period.
The most haunting character is portrayed by Sherri Moon Zombie. Just like the lovely young women "recruited" by Charles Manson, she is gorgeous and seems in some clips like an all-American girl-next-door. That's precisely what is so terrifying about her persona; she can seem to be normal (and perhaps flighty) but is nonetheless the embodiment of pure evil.
Ironically enough, the ultimate didactic utility of Rob Zombie movies is to teach us all to show kindness to each other. After seeing the hideous mindset & acrimonious hatred of the characters in his movies, we relish simple courtesies from other people all the more.
