I didn't think I was going to like this film going into it. I was kinda weary of it because I really didn't care for Rob Zombie's Halloween remake. I'm very pleased to say that I was surprised by how much I really liked this film. It's genuinely terrifying and it uses classic horror tactics that work. There's a lot of originality too, and I love that in this genre because so many horror films, especially nowadays can be so cheesy and stereotypical. I wasn't bored ever while watching this, I just became more interested because of it's originality. The actors all did a really great job, I was impressed especially by the actors playing the killer family. The third act of this film is really great and it's one of the best third acts of any horror film I've seen. I won't spoil anything because I want everyone to see it who hasn't already, but suffice to say that atmosphere has a big role in the third act. Atmosphere actually has a big role in the whole film, they did a really good job creating a creepy atmosphere that works. If you want a horror film with some originality, give this one a try, Rob Zombie did a great job.

"House of 1000 Corpses" was and actually still is a pretty entertaining movie; one that has lots of really interesting aspects to it. First of all it is loaded with the typical Rob Zombie imagery that you also see on his CD artwork and also crammed with lots of bits and pieces of horror icons and imagery.But it is also a movie that is rather brutal and grotesque at the same time. There is a good amount of blood violence and bloodshed in the movie as a movie of this type should have.What really worked out for me here was the characters, especially the deranged killers in particular. I love the Otis Driftwood and Captain Spaulding characters as they are so far out there that you can't help but love them and the fact that those two characters are played by Bill Mosely and Sid Haig respectively is just the icing on the cake.Now, aside from BIll Mosely and Sid Haig, then there are some pretty nice names on the cast list alongside those two; such as Karen Black, Tom Towles and also Sherri Moon held up her performance quite well.I have seen "House of 1000 corpses" numerous times and I doubt I will ever tire of it.The movie is also accompanied by a very interesting and unique soundtrack.If you enjoy horror movies then this is most definitely worth checking out if you haven't already. And if you haven't already seen this movie shame on you...

It's 12 a.m. over here, and it's officially the 31st of October, Halloween! As a horror fan, I will be doing the usual, which is having an all day horror movie marathon, and I'll be saving my personal favorite Halloween-themed horror film for last, which is House Of 1000 Corpses. This is the first film written and directed by Rob Zombie and the first film before Zombie's 2005 hit sequel, The Devil's Rejects. At the age of 15 or 16 years old, this movie was my very first experience of something totally bizarre, shocking, hostile, darkly humorous, and insanely amazing. Now, it's 2017, I'm 27 years old, and in this very day and age, House Of 1000 Corpses never ages. It's a wonderful ride of non-stop old school 70s horror straight to hell, filled with an all- star cast and unforgettable performances from massive horror heroes, Sid Haig as Captain Spaulding, Bill Moseley as Otis Driftwood, Sheri Moon Zombie as Baby Firefly, Karen Black as Mother Firefly and many more. Plus, with brutal special and makeup effects, creepy atmospheres, fuzzy music video style-like scenes, amazing cinematography, a super soundtrack and just about everything in a horror film that is truly a hardcore masterpiece. It's absolutely an awesome and cozy flick to watch on Halloween. This movie was also special to my late father, and we used to watch it every year on Halloween, until he passed in 2013. It's been four years now, and I'm still keeping that Halloween spirit between me and my late father alive by watching this movie. No matter what horror movies from the past, the present, or even those to be made in the future, House Of 1000 Corpses will always be my favorite Halloween-themed horror movie.
