The Devil's Rejects

The Devil's Rejects
Après la mort de son frère, le shérif Wydell ne rêve que de vengeance. Il est prêt à tout contre la terrifiante famille Firefly, et il n'hésitera pas à outrepasser la loi. Barricadés dans leur maison, les Firefly, eux, sont décidés à lui échapper par tous les moyens. Rien ne semble pouvoir arrêter leur macabre saga. Entre les deux camps, la guerre est ouverte, et elle va s'étendre…
First of all, forget the IMDb score you saw, it means nothing. This film should be viewed in conjunction with "House of 1000 Corpses" and/or the whole "Firefly" collection. That being said, if you have done that, and you still don't understand why this is one of if not thee greatest slasher horror collections of all time, then I challenge your understanding of the genre. This is a masterpiece in art direction and perfectly pays tribute to the beloved marriage of rock & roll and 'slasher' horror in practice as well as the soundtrack. With the implementation of two of humanity's most diabolical fears: the circus nightmare angle and the original psycho-southern "took a wrong turn" angle that the film's inspiration "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" was critically acclaimed for. In his film debut Rob Zombie manages to transcend his music stylie to the silver screen with a sense of art direction you might expect from a 70's veteran. "House of 1000 Corpses" plays out almost like an intro to the pièce de résistance that is "The Devil's Rejects" so be sure and watch them together. You can even throw in "3 From Hell" after a break if you get a chance, but it's more of a 'post script' and certainly not required. "Like Clowns don't cha?" 🤡🔪🩸
House of 1000 Corpses: 8/10
Devil's Rejects: 9.6/10
Firefly Collection 9.1/10
