See Brian Posehn killed in a comic book store
I've already made it clear here that I thought The Devil's Rejects was one of the best films of the year. Rob Zombie is on the way to become the Joel and Ethan Coen of horror films in the way he can replicate the style of a certain time, here it's '70s gindhouse films, that both pays tribute to a more organic way of making scary films as well as telling a new and interesting story. The film is "hyper-'70s" in the way it uses the music of bands such as The Allman Brothers and David Essex as well as casting actors like Sid Haig (Black Momma White Momma) and Ken Foree (Dawn of the Dead). It's brutal as Hell and also a great pop culture spectacle.
Tomorrow you can see the film for free because Nov. 9th is Rob Zombie Appreciation Day down there at the Isotope. That includes a screening of Devil's Rejects as well as some of Zombie's videos (I hope they play my favorite, "Living Dead Girl." Zombie does as wonderful a job with silent film horror as he does with the '70s horror in Rejects). You can pick up some new comics, drink something nice and watch a great film. Now doesn't that sound like a nice way to spend a Wednesday?
