Rob Zombie Reviving The Devil's Rejects

The Devil’s Rejects

Director Rob Zombieis set to create a follow - up to 2005 ’s intensely brutalThe Devil ’s Rejects , a film often cited as his best to date . Zombie of course first win a following via his euphony calling , first as the frontman for careen band White Zombie , before transition into a successful solo discharge . Befitting his microscope stage persona , Zombie is a vast repulsion buff , and has yet to direct a picture show outside the genre .

Zombie ’s first feature was 2003’sHouse of 1000 Corpses , which introduced the homicidal Firefly family to the world , and fundamentally serve as an extended homage to old school repugnance likeThe Texas Chainsaw Massacre . While technically a subsequence toHO1KC,2005’sThe Devil ’s Rejectswas almost a completely different film in feeling and mode , romp a coarse-grained aesthetic that stood in stark contrast to the more music television - like visuals of its predecessor .

Rejectsis the movie that really show Zombie as someone to find out within the revulsion community , although he ’s arguably never topped the raw , brutal volume created by lead killers Otis ( Bill Moseley ) , Baby ( Sheri Moon Zombie ) , andCaptain Spaulding ( Sid Haig).The Devil ’s Rejectsis a film that pulls no puncher , and is most definitely not for the faint of heart . While the Firefly crime syndicate has been dormant since , Bloody Disgustingnow report that Zombie will direct a follow - up toRejects , although it ’s unreadable when just he plans to start production .

Unfortunately , particular beyond that on Zombie ’s third Firefly moving-picture show have yet to be revealed . One presumes that the celluloid might be a prequel to Rejects , which memorably ended with Otis , Baby , and Spaulding getting riddled with bullets as the immortal Lynyrd Skynyrd song " Free Bird " make for on the radio . It ’s also potential that this new project wo n’t be focused on that trio at all , and might instead research another narration or characters within the same world . That said , Moseley , Sherri , and Haig are all regulars in Zombie ’s celluloid , so it ’s probable they ’ll appear in some mode .

Of course , there ’s nothing really stopping Zombie from just straight up rise the Firefly category and picking up afterRejects . Sure , it would n’t make any coherent sensory faculty for them to be " only mostly dead , " but horror franchises often work back fan favorite villains - or in this caseful anti - heroes - with little explanation as to how they could have survived the premature film . Plus , Otis , Baby , and Spaulding are popular enough that many fans would probably be willing to suspend their incredulity if it meant contract to see more of their psychopathic antics .
