The Devil's Rejects
aka
(the cast of) Alice...in Chains!


To quote Maury Ballz: Now, THAT'S what I'm TALKIN' ABOUT!

Rob Zombie's 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre' meets 'The Dukes of Hazzard' meets 'The Salton Sea' features a clan of mutant rodeo clown serial abductor/rapist/murders and meth-amphetamine enthusiasts on the run from a sadistic, vengeance-driven lawman with a staple gun and a reduced pain/empathy response.

Along the way, they abduct several of the supporting cast of TV's 'Alice' (Earl and Blondie Waitress 2.0, or maybe 3.0) and force them to participate in rather prolonged sessions of Simon Sez.

In addition to the 'Alice' cast, we have independent shock-film perenials Bill 'Chop Top' Moseley, Ken 'Dawn of the Dead 1978' Foree Ginger Lynn 'Wing Commander III & IV' Allen and Michael "The Hills Have Eyes" Berryman.

And, of course, Danny Trejo who proves once again that he's a Mexi-CAN, not a Mexi-CANT.

Shamelessly violent, sadistic, gory yet oddly poetic...up to and including the 'Thelma and Louise' ending complete with Lynard Skynard 'Freebird' accomaniment. That would qualify as a spoiler, except this is the kind of movie that CAN'T be spoiled.

Four stars, Jason Bob sez check it out.
