I think all the hype around here about this film was before I first joined, so I\'m just curious what your thoughts were on it. I personally thought it was kind of a TCM spin off, but I liked it. Captain Spaulding was funny as hell, and it sure had some pretty sick stuff. Awesome flick.

One of the most brilliant Horrorfilms made in years! Rob Zombie brought the feel back on the big screen that most so called "Horror" films today are missing. I can\'t wait for devils rejects which is supposed to take it up a notch!

It was OK, I wasn\'t too impressed with HO1000C, it\'s too much of a rip off on TCM for my liking and I don\'t know what all the hype was about.

Yeah, I noticed a lot of old school horror elements in it. Hell, I thought even the cover art looked pretty 70\'s/80\'s style. I liked that, too.

I liked it a lot, I thought Rob did a helluva job! Yeah it did take a lot of influence and ideas from TCM, The Hills Have Eyes, and many other movies, but I liked the omages, Rob paying tribute to some of his favs. It had just a fantastic retro feeling and look to it, Rob was shooting for the classic 70\'s horror and I think he got it very well! I loved the characters, Bill Mosely was in his best role since Chop Top, Otis was a great, really added so much to the dynamic and flow. Capt. Spaulding was that asshole you can\'t help but love, and Sig Haig was absolutly PERFECT for that role!! Best analogy I can think to describe it is TCM 2 directed by Quentin Tarintino, produced by Oliver Stone, what what\'s not to love there?!?!?

I didn\'t find it the least bit scary, but it was a decent homage to \'70\'s-style horror films. It was like a breath of fresh air after all the Scream ripoffs that Hollywood had been churning out. Definitely worth a rental, especially if you get the DVD. Can\'t wait for The Devil\'s Rejects!
