31 I am a Rob Zombie fan, both for films and music, but he has definitely gone off the boil in recent years. I enjoyed both Halloweens and Lords of Salem but 31 feels like a cheap indie production from a first time director. Bare-bones story and nothing to see because it's shot in near darkness. I have 3 From Hell arriving on Saturday - I hope it's better than this dreck.
You have to understand Rob a bit, just like when he broke up the band white zombie, only to come out as rob zombie. How to say this right. He hated having to take his other band members input with white zombie, so they broke up and now with rob zombie he can do whatever he wants with his music.
House of a 1000 and for the most part the devils rejects were and are indy movies. He did what he wanted with the limited money he had. The studios didn't do that when they backed him with their Helloween moves. Always in his face etc…that isn't him.
Now back to the movies…..
I really liked 31 and didn't like lords of Salem, it is the only one i haven't re watched and well others have well more then a few times.
3 From Hell, what to say about it, without spoiling it at all. It is a great movie, just lacking because with the first two we had all the characters to love or hate and it followed the story of them being killed or as the killers….
Well guess what!!!!! When you get to a third and second or the third doesn't go back in time….and everyone is a killer or getting killed or both…well there isn't many people left…
new people well …their isn't time now to give us a NEW person(S) back ground without dragging down the movie badly. Leaving us with the 3 from hell left to carry a movie.,…
Now why i really liked it Spoiler …..Spoiler….Sid Hag(rest his soul) was really sick and has pasted. NOT THE REASON I LIKED THE MOIVE, I really loved him in a lot of his b movies. This made it more like 2 from hell, so it became the BABY show.
You know Rob loves to show of his real life wife in his movies and music videos. Well her Charter Baby was on full crazy in this movie..
3 from hell 7-10
Devils rejects 8.3-10
House of a 1000 9.76-10
