The Devil's Rejects Review



The movie opens with one of my favorite Allman Brother's songs, Midnight Rider, and closes with Freebird, by the Legendary band, Lynryd Skynyrd. The movie itself is Dukes of Hazard meets Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

The director, Rob Zombie, was born Robert Cummings in Massachusetts. He was part of the group White Zombie and from a brief look at his biography he has led a very colorful life so far.

I didn't see his other big movie, House of 1000 Corpses.

Devil's Rejects is a very gory movie and the gore was very serious. Not much comic relief or cheese factor. Ebert and Roper gave it two thumbs up. I'll give it 3/5 acorns.
