William Forsythe as Sheriff John Quincey Wydell I enjoyed seeing Zombie work on the finer details for example finding a specific T-shirt (Cheap Trick) for Brian Posehn’s roadie character. Included on the bonus third disc is a feature called 30 Days in Hell, which is the making of The Devil’s Rejects. Also look for a cool deleted scene with Rosario Dawson and Dr. The disc has plenty of special features on its own, including a tribute to the late actor Matthew McGrory (Tiny). Going out in a blaze of glory, I will never hear Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Free Bird” again without seeing the three faces of the Devil’s Rejects.Īs seen here, I own this movie with House of 1000 Corpses in a great DVD 3-pack. I enjoyed that, but I also enjoyed the sudden change of gears that is the epic ending. Cranked up a tad, Captain Spaulding portrayed by Sid Haig always has a foul line to elicit a reluctant chuckle. Much like the original, there is humour to break up the carnage. All I know is, sometimes I can go for a good horror movie, and The Devil’s Rejects scratches the itch. I suppose Rob Zombie would be the guy to ask, I don’t know. You may question why they even need to exist. The images contained herein will disturb. I must stress again: This is not for everyone. There are buckets full of blood, lots of parts removed from the body to which they were originally attached, and lots of deeds beyond evil. There are no heroes, only victims and killers. Like something out of a Sergio Leone film, music and scenery complement each other to take you on a trip that will shock and disgust. Hitting the road, Baby & Otis meet up with Captain Spaulding, who is revealed to be Baby’s daddy! The three are on the run from a cop out to even a personal score. Rufus is dead, and the giant Tiny has escaped. Mama Firefly (recast from Karen Black to Leslie Easterbrook) has been arrested. ![]() Set mostly outdoors in the deep south, the titular Rejects are soon on the run. It may be a sequel, but its stark realistic texture is completely different from the bizarre original film. It is only the first of many surprises in this cool conclusion. ![]() The house is surrounded, and a surprisingly cool gun battle ensues. Picking up several months after the end of Corpses, the cops are closing in on the murderous Firefly family. ![]() Then I saw Rob Zombie’s House Of 1000 Corpses, and its sequel The Devil’s Rejects. I grew up on all the classics (good or bad) in the 80’s, but I thought I just outgrew the genre. Hooray, Hooray, Hooray.As stated yesterday, I’m generally not a horror movie guy. The song is a series of rhyming gags but ends with a loud repeated chorus that drown out the captain's attempts to speak. In 1951, Groucho recorded the song for release by Decca Records. The line, "I think I'll try to make her" was cut from the movie, being considered too risqué. The modern version of the situation comedy radio show Flywheel, Shyster, and Flywheel uses this song for its opening theme. It later became well known as the theme song for the Groucho Marx television show You Bet Your Life (1950–1961), and became Groucho's signature tune and was usually played when he was introduced on various talk shows and the like. " Hooray for Captain Spaulding" is a song, composed by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby originally from the 1928 Marx Brothers Broadway musical Animal Crackers and the 1930 film version.
