House of 1000 Corpses is the 1st motion picture directed by rocker Rob Zombie, directed in 1999 this movie wasn't released until 2003 because the MPAA said the movie is the most disturbing movie you'll ever see. The cast is brillant with (Sid Haig) playing the ever so loving clown Captain Spaulding. (Bill Mosley) Chop top from Texas Chainsaw Massacre II plays Otis Driftwood, an outcast to the firefly family but still a family member. (Karen Black) plays Mother firefly, with Sheri Moon Zombie in her feature debut as her daughter Baby.

The film starts off on Halloween eve in Texas at a gas station, where we meet Captain Spualding in the moments before his place gets robbed. A wonderful scene I might mention as to show that Rob Zombie goes into …show more content…
It's late at night there low fuel light comes on, and that's where the story gets crazy. As they pull into Captain Spauldings Museum of Monsters and Madness with fried Chicken and gasoline for comedic humor. They get a taste of what demented freaks are ahead of them, when they go on the Murder Joy Ride. Only relazing this, that local legend Dr. Satan was hung only 2 miles from here. The young adults get there directions to the tree leave with there fried chicken, and pick up a hitchhicker down the road named Baby (Sheri Moon Zombie). She is beautiful in a demented hardcore manson way. That your like yeah I will drive you home, which makes you understand how she is probably such a great murderer with her looks alone with the fellas. The car breaks down infront of the firefly house, which takes a turn into pure hell. Rob Zombie is a great director, he isn't scared to be bold, brutal and real. Modern day horror movies they make today Rob Zombie does do the greatest. House of 1000 Corpses isn't your every day asian girl chasing you in the television type of horror movie.

    Conventions In The Lost Boys

    To start off, the most obvious aspect of the horror genre that is in this film is vampires as they are a supernatural creature. The Vampires in the film are what you would expect; blood-sucking beasts with their sharp teeth, which sleep upside down, cast no reflection and who are afraid of sunlight. But that’s not all of it.…

    Warm Bodies Movie Analysis

    These zombies gnaw and pounce as they sniff the air for any human flesh. They pound doors and windows and get agitated once confronted with 10-foot cyclone fences. Once they are shot in the head, they die. Basically that is it on the zombie’s side of view because we never get to know what they are thinking. One of the most exhilarating pleasures of this movie is the script flipping. This is definitely a twist on the century’s most popular horror. “Warm Bodies” is a nicely directed and well-placed terrific love story with a lot of…

    Tom Savini's Night Of The Living Dead

    The zombies in the film are amazing, which I would expect now knowing the breadth and style of Tom Savini's work. Though the advanced decay seen on some the dead make me wonder, how recently the dead are that are returning to life. The advanced makeup effects and... well budget, do a lot for this film. My favorite shot of a zombie is in the beginning when the burial cloths fall off one revealing the wounds from an autopsy. It's a great shot that relies on minimal make-up and effects for maximum effect.…

    Herbert Hoover once said,” Older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die.” This disapproving view of war parallels with Vonnegut’s view of war, evident in Slaughterhouse Five. Vonnegut uses a number of rhetorical devices in this novel in order to denounce war such as imagery, personification, and allusions.…

    Shaun Of The Dead Analysis

    Rotting corpses, blood and guts are all unpleasant yet these elements are essential to any great horror film.

Most recently, zombies are all the rage. Zombies have hit the media full force with films and shows such as Zombie Land, 28 Days Later, I am legend, The Walking Dead, and World War Z. Shaun of the Dead is a British horror movie spoof about a unambitious 29 year old man, Shaun, who is trying to turn his life around and save the love of his life and his mum from a zombie apocalypse.…

    Is Jaws a Horror Movie?

    From here horror moved on to the witchcraft and the undead, films such as Peeing Tom (1960) and The Night of Dead (1990). New films brought with them new conventions. Zombie films trapped the audience, where claustrophobic attack scenes where a key feature. Zombies travelled closer towards the audience and crowded camera leaving the audience terrified. Horror finally became horror we know today, with the slasher movie era. Horror films became more realistic but also they became more stylised. Based on a real life tragic such as, Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974), Halloween (1978) and Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), our screens where awash with blood. This is where we see the…

    Night Of The Living Dead Pros And Cons

    Since the first zombie movie in 1932, we have seen over 2000+ movie been made with different varieties of zombies. From generic zombies to the newer radioactive zombie, but it has always been difficult to pick the best zombie movie. Several critic have tried in the past to describe what makes a good zombie movie, some even argued that the amount of blood seen in a zombie movie determines how great the movie is. But I think the best zombie movie ever is Night of the Living Dead (1968) and I based my judgment on these three criteria which are; the movie must start at the cemetery or a burial ceremony or with display of dead bodies, the zombies must be slow and lastly there must be a moral hero and a moral failure.…

    Texas Chainsaw 3d Review

    Movie director John Luessenhop completely missed the memo when it came to the remake of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Originally going into a scary movie you would expect loud screams, gory scenery, and an ‘at the edge of your seat’ feeling but this one is not like that. The new sequel to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre has nothing to offer in comparison to the original work done by Tobe Hooper. John Luessenhop’s adaptations failed from the original. The word ‘massacre’ was even removed from the title. Texas Chainsaw 3D starts off where the original movie ended. They begin by showing how much hatred the towns people had for the Sawyer family and their cannibalistic (leatherface) family member. Concluding their rage the towns’ people burned the Sawyer home with all of them in it. It was believed that the disasters had stopped and they were all heroes until the main character, Heather, came long. To her surprise and those of the towns’ people she was a long lost Sawyer. John Luessenhop thought he would remake this movie to be compared if not better than the original but the three dimensional effects, thrills, and suspense made this movie a waste of $15.00 for all of those who watched it in theaters.…
