If you love sick and twisted... this is for you!!
It doesnt matter if you have watched 'House of a 1000 Corpses' or not. This is the sort of sequel that exceeds the original. Instantly it grabs you and striaght-away you realise what a gruesome gorefest this film is going to be. For those with weak stomachs best to turn off now. Even though you are watching the 'bad guys' do what they do best, which is humiliate, maim and murder you cant help but like them. The last thing you want is for these guys to get caught by the cops. With an awesome soundtrack that ends with lynryd Skynyrd's freebird and a cast that fits every part perfect this is a film that I highly recommend and I guarentee you will not be dissapointed.

REJECT THIS NOW - THERE IS STILL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fancy making your life shorter by wasting some time on this little gem of a film? Yes? - Then there is no hope for you I'm afraid; just give up now. If the answer is no - well thats different. I watched this on the tv on saturday night and this film is simply awful. It had potential with the story and settings but threw it all away with non existent acting. Poor poor directing. Mis casting of good actors and a completly ruined blance between humour and horror. It just ends up being neither. But hey dont just take my word for it. I watched this with four of my friends and two got up and left the front room in the middle. One left leaving me on my own 10 minutes before the end of the film. And me for my sins watched the ending and went to sleep feeling quite depressed. Oh yes the story. A group of sick violent poor actors mutilate a sheriffs brother and lots of other people, go on a killing spree in America and get killed in the end by the sherriff. For the males amoungst us you get to see some full nudity and a pretty pyscho girl who kills and gets her butt out alot. But for women I fail to see why you would even bother with this rubbish. Ive had more fun cutting my toenails and watching them get washed down the plughole when I turn on the tap.... - Well you get the idea. END.........

Awesome movie!
If violent horror is not your bag, forget this. Some of the scenes are painfully graphic, but Zombie has excelled here where with House Of A Thousand Corpses, he was treading water in comparison. br / br /There are faults - let's be clear - as the continuity between this and the aforementioned prequel HOATC, doesn't totally add up. But that said, one wouldn't really need to watch HOATC to get total enjoyment from this movie. Bill Moseley, Sid Haig, Sherri Moon and William Forsythe each pack a powerful performance which adds real class to what is a clever mix of horror, western and road movie. br / br /Special mention for the movie soundtrack, which absolutely rocks and fits the film perfectly. 'Midnight Rider' - The Allman Brothers Band, 'Fooled Around and Fell in Love' - Elvin Bishop, 'I Can't Quit You Baby' - Otis Rush and 'Rocky Mountain Way' - Joe Walsh are all super tracks which get accompany this great movie, but dare I say it, the best is saved until the final sequence in the movie. Panoramic shots of arid, rocky-sided roads, you feel as if you're flying above the final scene about to be played out, then you swoop down to live it and breathe it with the cast; there can only be one outcome - it's obvious - but for a moment, belief is suspended while the wonderful sound of 'Free Bird' - Lynyrd Skynyrd, unfolds from the speakers and the final battle commences. br / br /It's excessive, it's extreme, it's unbelievable, yet it remains one of the best movies of its kind I've ever had the pleasure to watch. It took me by surprise the first time I watched it (I was expecting HOATC Part 2) and it continues to surprise me each time I watch. Zombie's masterpiece. 5 Stars.

not perfect but very good indeed..
very interesting film indeed.. miles better than zombie's first offering "house of 1000 corpes" that starts good but kind of becomes a joke eventually.. his first film did show glimpses of his talent, but ended up as a self-indulgent, overly bizzare horror piece that made little sense.. on the other hand this one is very well structured, has no holes in the plot and has a focused simple story that has a grittier edge but doesnt get ruined from too many weird visuals and uneeded nastiness and gore.. also it easily stands on its own and can be watched without seeing the house of 1000 c first.. br /Many of the reviewers here talk about how brutal, disturbing and nasty this film is but i totally disagree.. Its nowhere close to other recent offerings like the saw trilogy, hostel, hills hv eyes, even the new texas chainsaw etc.. br /unpleasant and dark yes but def not gory or gross as some here claim. i am not even sure it can be classified as horror... br /great characters even if mainly one dimensional, especially great camera work- not overdone as in his first film, clever cutting/editing and most of all not just great, but superb 70s soundrack that makes this film a bit more special than what it really is.. br /the combo of the ending with the classic lynyrd skynyrd song played is i think genious... br /not 5 stars cause at the end of the day there is not much depth, but other than that just great........ br /
