House of 1000 Corpses

HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES (2003) - Aug. 26, 2009
Rob Zombie's first film, about two couples who are terrorized by a family of weirdos after stopping at a bizarre roadside museum of curios. The film started out pretty well, and it definitely had its moments, but I found my interest steadily waning as it lumbered towards its increasingly bizarre conclusion. Rob Zombie's direction, which clearly took more than a little influence from the horror films of the '70s, was mostly okay, though his random stylistic flourishes did grow old after a while. **
