Sid Haig rules over this DVD incarnation of the waaay over-rated Rob Zombie's disjointed attempt at direction. The DVD splash screen can be left to run awhile as Sid's character keeps getting madder at you, the viewer, for not hitting the PLAY button.



Lots of good ol' scariness, but just rotten-as-corpses-continuity through much of it, and the uncredited appearance of 60's icon Michael J. Pollard should have been better thought out than to make him a local corn pone caught on the toilet who does as obscene a bad dialogue with Haig as any amateur on smack; Pollard should have the decency to just hang himself in a Motel 6 shower as a career-ending apology to those of us who once thought that he was cool.



Karen Black plays the psycho mommy among a good bunch of flesh-rending cannibals, insane backwoods cretins and sub-humans... and does it a good turn, so kudos to Karen for keeping her indie roots true.



But the unintentionally funny appearance of THE OFFICE's Dwight as one of the young quartet of victims is a hoot. Sid Haig has too many blank spots to fill in with his own dialogue that he eats up those moments with profane and goofy babble, but for Sid, it sure is funny stuff.



As a nightmarish flick, well done, but could've been better edited, really, by a high schooler doin' a Youtube video. Some good gobs of gore, but all of it is retreads. "...and don't forgit your complimentary fried chicken!"

No thanks; i'll pass.
