House Of 1000 Corpses Review

House Of 1000 Corpses Review

Two couples are traveling across the country and see a roadside attraction called “Captain Spaulding’s Gasoline and Chicken” Inside is a museum dedicated to every freaky thing you can think of. Captain Spaulding (Sid Haig) tells them about local legend Dr. Satan. The kids go to see the tree where Dr. Satan was hung and on the way they have a flat tire and are taken hostage by a family of sadistic freaks.

In the interview section of the DVD Sid Haig says something about most people will either love or hate this film. Not a lot say it was all right. Well, I am one of those. It was all right. I didn’t hate it but I probably won’t watch it again. It was just a rehashing of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre on acid with better music.

I like my movies a little more straight-forward. All of the cut scenes and inserts just distracted me from the movie. If it’s going to be trippy at least let it be because of drugs and not someone just trying to be “stylish”. I hope that Rob Zombie has learned from this picture and made The Devils Rejects a better film. If you are a big fan of older horror movies then you will probably enjoy it a lot more than I did.

Casting – Sid Haig’s Captain Spaulding is by far the best character in the movie. He is funny as hell. Make sure you check out the DVD Menu for Captain Spaulding at his best. Just let it play. Bill Moseley’s Otis was just annoying. The dude can’t act for shit and the character was just stupid looking. Sheri Moon’s Baby was entertaining and she looks good but there isn’t much else to say except that her laugh sounds exactly like Ash’s girlfriend in Evil Dead. (And she has a nice ass)

Here are a couple of random thoughts. “Red Hot Pussy Liquors” Need I say more? Dr. Satan and the big dude with the ax look like a cross between Nemesis from Resident Evil: Apocalypse and the Cenobites from Hellraiser.

The best parts of this disc are Tiny Fucked a Stump in the DVD extras and as I said before, Captain Spaulding on the opening menu.
