Another Rob Zombie movie I have watched, and another one that people are mixed about. I’ve dicho before that I known Zombie más for his cine rather than his music, and this is one of the cine I remember my brother telling me he loved. I didn’t know what I’d think of it. I do remember some people finding it too disgusting for them. Then again, I did have a soft spot for some of Zombie’s other movies, like El Superbeasto, so maybe this could be one of his shining gems… o it could turn out like his halloween movie, and we all know that’s not good. Anyway, today, we are going to talk about Zombie’s…. botella doble, magnum Opus? Maybe?.... It’s The Devil’s Rejects.
The Devil’s Rejects takes place right after another Zombie movie, House of 1000 Corpses (I’ve never seen it o heard anyone say anything good about it, so I doubt I’m missing out), about the Firefly family, consisting of Rufus, Mother Firefly, Otis, and Baby… Well, más of just Otis and Baby, since Rufus gets killed and Mother Firefly gets captured por police. Anyway, Otis and Baby are trying to escape the police, who are hunting them down for over 75 accounts of homicide, with the help of Captain Spaulding, the psychotic killer clown who has, as Sheriff John Quincey Wydell does whatever he can to find and capture, o just kill, the remaining members of the Firefly family. Sounds pretty normal, but I gotta tell tu all right now, this movie is… Well, how do I put it……. This movie is incredibly fucked.
The Devil’s Reject is probably the most hardest to watch horror movie so far of October Movie Marathon. The characters in this movie are all screwed up in the worst possible way. Otis is always beating, abusing, and raping women (And there is a scene of all three on this movie), Baby is always enjoying the suffering of others and forcing them to harm each other, Spaulding is just screwed up in general, and even Sheriff Wydell goes insane por the end of the movie, where (Spoilers) he just tortures the Firefly family in the same fashion they tortured their own victims, not even caring about what it means to be a police officer at this point. And the gore in this movie is too realistic. I’ve heard that Rob Zombie, whenever he makes a horror movie, he focuses too much on the gore, and not enough on the… everything else. In the halloween Remake, yes, definitely. But here… well, yes, there’s lot of it, but I think that he managed to make the characters way más scary.
I think the scariest character in this movie is Captain Spaulding. And I’m not just saying that because he’s a clown… I mean, it helps, but still. The thing that I think makes him más scary is how he behaves. Sure, he’s a crazed serial killer who is always guaranteed to do something horrible in every scene he’s in, but the thing that makes him scary is how he talks to people. He is either calm and collective, speaking in a disturbingly soft tone, o he is laughing like crazy and shouting at a panicking individual, who has no idea what’s going on. Sid Haig gave such a great performance of this character, and it appears to have paid off, since he was the fan favorito! (Yes, this movie has fans. It is a cult movie, which I seem to be reviewing a lot of this month, huh?). But Sheriff Wydell is also pretty disturbing. (Spoilers), his brother is killed por the Firefly family, so he just loses his sanity, and when he does manage to capture them, he does what he can to torture them in the same fashion as they did their victims. Even the person who is supposed to be the good guy is screwed up in the head por the end of the movie. I never thought tu could get your one sane character to lose it por the end. Than again, what was I expecting from a movie like this?
Well, I can definitely say this, the movie was definitely creepy enough for this month. I think we may have the scariest movie so far. I think it does get a pass, but I don’t want to watch it again, because it’s too much for me to handle. I only run into a few cine that I only watch once and never again, like 120 Days of Sodom o The Human Centipede. Sure, The Devil’s Rejects is NOWHERE as bad as those two, but… There’s just some scenes that I couldn’t handle. At least I did enjoy the characters and the acting, and some of the scenes in it. The movie may have not been loved por critics, but it did get some fans to gain cult status, to where tu can buy toys of Captain Spaulding. Make toys of a crazed murderer, why not. Also, this was also the last film that Matthew McGrory worked on before his death, who tu may know for other terrifying films like Big pescado and Bubble Boy (A movie scary for other reasons). All I can say is, what a way to go. So, Devil’s Rejects. A… good movie? I think. Just make sure to be prepared for some messed up scenes. Take care.
