House of 1000 Corpses (2003)

While on a country wide journey, four friends whom are attempting to write a book about roadside attractions runs into a clown named captain Spaulding who tells them about a local legend named Dr. Satan. The group, now intrigued, decide to hunt down Dr. Satan's place of death but are interrupted by a passing hitch hiker who drags them all to her family home and to their possible demise.

Written a directed by Rob Zombie and starring Sid Haig, Bill Moseley, Sheri Moon Zombie, Rainn Wilson and Chris Hardwick.

If you are a fan of fun, gore filled slasher movies, loaded with more maniacs than you can shake a stick at, then look no further! Zombie takes the Texas Chainsaw Massacre "family" idea, throws in a few extra crazies and cranks it all the way up to eleven and you have yourselves the Firefly family!

The story line seems to be all over the place with the unexpected and unexplained just popping up every which way making this slightly confusing among somebody's first viewing on the film. After watching it two or three times you should be able to pick up on all the little things that would help piece it all together.

The special effects were excellent to say the least. They really gave out the effect it needed too in order to bring up the creepy factor.

Not Zombie's best work, but still good, especially considering this was his first go as a director. Corpses gets a 6 out of 10.
