House of 1000 Corpses

What do Billy Joel, Ric Ocasek, Chris Robinson, and Rob Zombie have in common?

In anticipation of Halloween II, Now Playing Podcast looks back at director Rob Zombie’s first plunge into feature-film horror: House of 1000 Corpses and its sequel, The Devil's Rejects.

The journey begins with House of 1000 Corpses, Zombie’s fever-dream introduction to the twisted Firefly family. Blending grindhouse aesthetics, carnival grotesquery, and unapologetic brutality, the film throws viewers headfirst into a nightmare world where every door hides something worse than the last. Does Zombie’s debut announce a bold new horror voice, or is it style over substance buried under a mountain of mayhem? The hosts step inside the Firefly home to find out just where all those bodies fit.
