HMPOD.com Podcast 114 — Rob Zombie retrospective & The Last Exorcism Part 2




The Horror Movie Show show

Summary: The original Superbeasto Episode No. 114 of The Horror Movie Show, with your far-from-mute hosts Mark & Jerry, is the latest in a long series of retrospectives on the premier horror directors of this very modern age. From his early originals — House of 1,000 Corpses and its gory bastard offspring The Devil's Rejects — to hugely successful remakes of Halloween & its inescapable sequel, Renaissance man Rob Zombie has found a willing audience for his gritty horror flicks. His use of venerable character actors (including the late, great Karen Black in House of 1,000 Corpses) undoubtedly helps make his movies as much fun to watch as one could wish. Invariably featuring his lovely wife Sheri Moon, Zombie has also explored animation (The Haunted World of El Superbeasto, based on Zombie's own comic book) and recently released what is probably his best film to date, 2012's Lords of Salem. Jerry & Mark give their two cents on this modern horror icon's directorial outrages. This episode of The Horror Movie Show is capped with a review of The Last Exorcism Part II. How does this sequel compare with its worthy predecessor? Tune in & hear all, gentle listener.
