I bought the House Of 1,000 Corpses DVD a few weeks ago because I wanted to see The Devil's Rejects. I figured it would be better going into 'Rejects' already knowing the main characters.
Anyways, I really enoyed '1,000 Corpses' up until the last 10 minutes. I think it all fell apart once they went underground into Dr. Satan's lair. To me it took the film somewhere it didn't need to go and went from a decent horror flick into some bizarre sci-fi fiasco that felt like a trainwreck to watch.
Other than that, I though it was a rather decent first effort from Zombie, very reminiscent of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre but with a much more entertaining family of misfits (sans "Leatherface" of course).
'Rejects' was more of Natural Born Killers kind of flick. Definitely not horror, even though it chronicals the further "adventures" of the Firefly family. Different from the first film, but very well put together and much tighter, overall.
