3 From Hell Review

Buy 3 From Hell on Amazon via my referral link: amzn.to/3duniaU
The long awaited, much requested sequel to Rob Zombie's most acclaimed film The Devil's Rejects, 3 From Hell.. well.. it came out? Really didn't have the impact that The Devil's Rejects did. There are reasons for that, though a lot of those reasons couldn't be helped. Nevertheless exactly how did the movie hold up on it's own merits?

I remember going to a horror convention that Sid Haig was going to attend along with Bill Moseley before he had passed away. So as a tribute, the convention left his panel there with a lovely Rest In Peace cover art behind the table and a book for fans to sign and write a message for him. I remember there were a massive line of people writing in that book paying their respects and during the convention there was also moment of silence for him. There was no point in making this comment, but I thought it was a story worth sharing.

The Sid Haig part is just sad, when I see it I can't even think of Captain Spaulding or focus on the point of the scene, I see a man that was near the end. He gave it everything he had and it was clear that he was struggling.

[@GamerGuysReviews]

I was at a convention last year and Sid Haig was one of the guests. This was about two months before he passed away and you could tell he was incredibly frail, but it didn't deter him. Everyone was enthralled by the stories he shared at the Q&A panel he did with Bill Moseley.

He was one of the first people I seen as I came through the convention doors and he was by himself, we made eye contact and I was shocked because of who I was seeing. (I had never been to a convention before so it was a great experience) I knew it was Sid, but he looked completely done with everything. I smiled at him and he waved and smiled back. Can’t believe he was gone that fast though. He was great to everyone at the convention too, always a class act.

The older I get, the more I realize Zombie has about 5 minutes of visual flair, which is why his music videos are pretty cool. That's what his movies are: 5 minutes of visual flair stretched to feature length.

[@faz6877]

Completely agree. If Zombie wasn't a rock star he wouldn't have been treated like a horror icon in the mid 2000's. I'm not taking away from Devils Rejects, but Zombie is nowhere near that upper echelon horror directors like Carpenter.

[@Rodzilla97]

@@faz6877 he's not upper echelon, but these 3 movies, and 31 are good

[@robertyeah2259]

This is actually the reason that out of all of Rob Zombie's movies, I like his Halloween films the most. I know that's like horror blasphemy, but Rob Zombie has a grindhouse style that I feel I could really love, but then he has just the worst scripts. Even when he has good ideas it's bogged down by awful dialogue and vulgarity. I know most people hate Zombie's Halloween films for smearing his white trash all over the Halloween story, but for me, it's because Halloween actually has a solid story and characters borrowed from John Carpenter that Zombie's Halloween films work. The trashiness is there, but it doesn't replace the original story. The Firefly films and most of Zombie's work (other than Lords of Salem) definitely feel like the trashiness is replacing the story, and is not just an aesthetic.

[@Gfysimpletons]

Tried reaching out to Susan with condolences but by then social media had changed so much I couldn't find a way to make direct contact. They were fantastic people.

I was so hyped to see this movie and was so disappointed. The devils' rejects was so good and the actors seemed so real in the sense that they reflected real mental disorders seen in killers. In 3 from hell it was like they where trying to do the same thing but so many things felt off. The way it was shot was simply crap, The actors didn't seem that much into it. The dialog was flat and uninspired and so so much more. I think they all knew it was a cash grab. What I would have liked is to see their life in prison, Baby starts to become more of a normal person as they give her meds and therapy. Her brother breaks out in some kind of fucked up twisted way and finds a way to get his sister out. But then is shocked that she has changed and is afraid of him. Then we follow the two as the brother tries to make her into the person she was before as they run from police. Baby falls in love with a guy who her brother then kills. The brother starts to think about leaving her or killing her. He then rapes her in hopes of keeping the blood line going. In the end they are surrounded by police, He tells her some shit about the devil in all of us and then shoots him self. Fast forward and Baby has a husband and baby. Her husband is abusive and she end up stabbing him to death. This makes her snap back to who she was and she walks out of the house that is on fire, she is cover in blood, smiling as she hold the baby. The end

"THE SUMMER . . . OF BRUCE & BRANDON . . . LEEEEE!!" As both father and son tragically died just as their respective careers were really taking off, neither of them has a filmography long enough to take up an entire summer. But by combining them and alternating between the two of them (much like how you did :THE SUMMER . . . OF FREDDY VS JASON!!!") You can cover all of their movies throughout the entire summer. Might I suggest: Week 1 (June 30): The Green Hornet TV Series (A crossover with Creepy) Week 2 (July 7): Legacy Of Rage (1986) Week 3 (July 14) The Big Boss (1971 aka "Fists Of Fury") Week 4 (July 21):Kung Fu: The Movie (1986, a made for TV movie sequel to the David Caradine series Kung Fu) Week 5 (July 28): Fists Of Fury (1972 aka "The Chinese Connection") Week 6 (August 5): Laser Mission (1989) Week 7 (August 12): Way Of The Dragon (1972 aka "Return Of The Dragon") Week 8 (August 19): Showdown In Little Tokyo (1991) Week 9 (August 26): Enter The Dragon (1973) Week 10 (September 2): Rapid Fire (1992) Week 11 (September 9): Game Of Death (1978) Week 12 (September 16): The Crow (1993) And hey!

I love horror movies, have for 35 years, ever since I walked to the video store that let 12 year old me rent all sorts of them without hesitation or demands that a parent check them out instead. But Rob Zombie horror? I can't get on board. While I appreciate his visual acumen, his storytelling is just... Gross? Is that the word I'm looking for? Vile characters, endless bloodshed, and no arcs. As a viewer, I have no investment as a viewer, and after viewing I feel... Gross. Even the most notorious exploitation filmmakers of the 70's had the sense to make sure to include characters you cared about, and their evil characters got what they deserved. Zombie is just an edgy nihilist, and whatever that may be, it's definitely not entertaining. Great review as always, Decker.

[@Amber_xo_133]

Sadly, actor Sid Haig (who played Captain Spaulding) died only five days after this film was released theatrically. The movie poster featuring the black and white eyes, mugshot style photos across the bottom, and striking red font is meant to be a reference to the poster for 1976's Helter Skelter (1976). Post-production was postponed for five months due to Rob Zombie's and Marilyn Manson's tour. (at around 1h 28 mins) In the film the song In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida plays. This same song was requested by Bill Moseley's character Chop Top in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986). The character Carlos Perro is wearing one of Rob Zombie's iconic hats. Sheri Moon Zombie had to take archery lessons to learn how to properly use a bow and arrow. Sequel to House of 1000 Corpses (2003) and The Devil's Rejects (2005). The main characters: Firefly, Captain Spaulding, and Otis Driftwood are the same names of characters played by Groucho Marx in the Marx Brothers movies. The film was entirely shot in Los Angeles, California. (at around 1h 28 mins) In the film the song In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida plays. This same song was requested by Bill Moseley's character Chop Top in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986). The character Carlos Perro is wearing one of Rob Zombie's iconic hats. Dee Wallace's character is an homage to the main character, Ilsa, in the movie Ilsa, the Wicked Warden (1977), also known as "Ilsa - The Mad Butcher", "Wanda, the Wicked Warden", "Greta - Haus ohne Männer" (original title), and "Greta the Torturer." On the film's third night in theaters, it was screened in a double feature with its predecessor, The Devil's Rejects (2005). The appearance of Wade Williams as a member of Baby's parole board may be poking fun at the fact that he played a prison warden in the TV series Prison Break (2005). Richard Brake is left-handed just like Bill Moseley and Sid Haig. Captain Spauldings last words before execution were the exact same as Ted Bundy's. "give my love to my family and friends". The front of Warden Virgil Dallas Harper's house is an exact replica of the front of the house from the original THE DESPERATE HOURS. When Otis comes up with the plan to take the Warden's family hostage to force him to free his sister, Baby, he says the plan is based on THE DESPERATE HOURS.

I love Rob. He can make a film. But, these films are like greatest hits. Recreations of scenes, or ideas. I love the family. RJ wins my vote of "whom I'd like to be killed by" in all of horror. The main three had a chemistry. That suffered here, no one's fault. Rob Zombie can dress a set, and is a wonderful photographer. He is a dependable filmmaker. His casting department is always dead on. The cinematography captures the 70s, in a way I haven't felt since the 70s. Music all good. I would just like to see more original material. I didn't mention his musical skills up above however, I dig his music. Back to this movie. I enjoyed it.

[@Stand_By_For_Mind_Control]

This movie was the last goodwill I had for Zombie up in smoke. I appreciate that he throws bones to obscure horror convention actors, but he just blows as a director. He can make violent, mean spirited movies but nothing ever feels like a complete thought.

[@johnellizz]

What Rob Zombie has learned is that if he doesn't have Otis he doesn't have a movie. What good movie has Rob made that did NOT have this Otis guy? Maybe Rob should do "Otis goes to Space", "Otis Takes Manhattan" or even "My Dinner With Otis?"

[@lightlampdog]

This movie is the perfect example of not being able to leave a good thing alone. Devil's rejects somehow managed to make its most vile characters still seem vaguely human and sympathetic whereas this movie I was actively rooting against the Fireflies and was so disappointed with the ending

[@MiSambra]

A scene with Haig(Spaulding) putting on improvised clown makeup in jail would have been awesome.

[@jeffmartin9753]

"From Another Time" by The James Gang with Tommy Bolin was playing during the dance sequence! That tune has a killer guitar solo! What a groove too! I love the entire record! Rob Zombie huh?

[@TigburtJones]

You got this decker! I would watch videos of you just talking about stories, opinions or ideas you have based on your expertise in the film analysis genre. Maybe you should make a horror movie bro! I’ll give you music for free! Wait maybe you can do some horror movie standup comedy or something. Anyway just a thought(s)

[@TheCreatureFeatureJohnCampbell]

I understand the stuff at the beginning, but yeah, I'm glad you're doing horror again.

[@fistofthesnortstar]

I really disliked this movie, to such a degree that i even wondered why i even liked the previous ones. it felt so damn bland and useless.

[@jordanloux3883]

Just wanna say, nice Mimikyu hoodie. And have you ever thought about looking to French New Wave? There are a lot of gruesome horror movies in there.

[@hoagsmash4188]

Spot on man. It felt EXACTLY like "Rejects". Like he was trying to recapture that magic. It wasn't a bad movie, IMO just didn't have the originality the other two had. Still love Rob Zombie though haha

[@bat1138]

I was hoping to see them barely alive after the end of the 2nd. The cops instead of fixing them up, towed the car w/ them, back to their property. Throw them in with Dr. Frankenstein from the first and call it a day. Always thought the Dr. was an interestin character.

[@thegreatstoneddragon9432]

I swear, with all the times I've seen Danny Trejo get killed off in movies recently, I feel like he's turning into the next Sean Bean.

[@yoshijb9428]

Fun fact, Danny Trejo will often take bad guy roles! To show fans that being bad never pays. Hence why half his characters are killed off! Halloween for example. That's why I love this actor has a wonderful catalogue of work!

[@hillbillynomad6697]

I grew up watching Sid Haig in the 80s he was a horror icon who I had the pleasure meeting at several horror conventions what a great guy.

[@M12GProductions]

My favorite reviews of yours are Devil's Rejects, The Thing (82), and The Predator. Keep up the good work, DS!

[@slingbladesally2522]

"I'm pretty sure this is a movie that won't be getting another sequel." Um, where have I heard that before? Oh yeah. I think given the circumstances with Sid.. Rob did a good job.

[@Anthonycheesman33]

It would of been a better job if he did it 10 years ago lol

[@ericb9252]

Nothing good about this turd.

[@technomage6736]

Regardless of Sid's circumstances, it wasn't that great.

[@christopherwalkinalloverya5824]

Sadly, there will probably be a sequel. Ugh.

[@Greywind920]

Omg Decker I have been waiting for you to upload this. I haven't watched any other reviews on the movie, I've been waiting for yours!

[@odd-eyes9463]

Devil's Rejects was the first Rob Zombie movie i ever saw. I enjoyed it and House of 1,000 corpses as well as this movie. Good to see you at it again Decker.

[@TheGinger36]

Really enjoy your reviews. Always something in them that makes me laugh. Was wondering if you thought about reviewing Lake Placid or Anaconda? Giant killer creature horror.

[@Flash_790]

I mean no disrespect to Sid Haig, but it would have made so much more sense if Captain Spaulding had died in the shootout at the end of Devil's Rejects, instead of being miraculously revived only to be executed. That would have been more realistic than having all of them survive. It could have added an interesting aspect to Baby's character too, wanting to avenge her daddy in her own fucked up way.

[@lordofthereels6790]

Granted I fell off Zombie after Halloween 2, but I admire how much tighter this movie felt for him. I was disappointed by him reusing beats from Devil's Rejects, but that was handled better then I thought that it would. It's horrible about Sid Haig, but he went out on a real strong note in this. I also found the dialogue largely to be some of Zombie's best especially with the new trio and the end of Haig. Most importantly Clint Howard is ALWAYS a win.

[@DubExp]

I can't remember if they mention Cap Spaulding at the end. But I always think of them thinking about him during their drive. While the actors are remembering Sid. Also Summer of?...insert movie here. But been watching your videos for about a year. I enjoy horror and non horror reviews.

[@fran3ro]

Now I'm imagining a movie with Wesley Snipe's Simon Phoenix as Joker and Sheri Zombie's Baby as Harley.

[@Zanzibar_Dallax]

I'm gonna be honest.. *I watch your content as background sound a lot. Ive watched every review of every movie I've seen, multiple times, and now have moved onto stuff I want to see. Thank you for the content* PS - I'm still waiting on a Leprechaun series review, you long hair freaky person

[@ryanlesner4716]

Why didn't the warden call the police? Why didn't he come back with riot shotgun and Tactical gear? Why did he agree to release Baby? Why didn't he know that once Baby was free everyone was gonna die? Why does Baby have so many Tattoos? Why is it Baby looks so fucking old?

[@Yanrogue]

Any chances for a Steven king marathon like sleep walkers or the stand? Or a puppet master review? always like seeing new content from you

[@BsHaDy21]

Rumor has it Zombie is going to make another “alternate” movie for a third sequel. This installment “3 FROM HELL” is just a mere dream from Baby.

[@piggy8761]

What rumor link it

[@kathyjacques2688]

Oh man I was gonna take a nap but I gotta watch Decker first

[@MiaRosenbloom]

I know it's been done to death, but that's because it works.... The ending from Devil's Rejects could've been just a dream by Baby or Otis, and they're actually still on the run.

[@specks-n-spoons4048]

So hyped to see this is my sub box been waiting for this since Devil's Rejects.

[@Weedy_McWeedy]

R.I.P. Sid Haig. He’s sorely missed.

[@gunthersman5672]

Decker, the biggest problem with watching your stuff is the staggered releases. There's no schedule and to be honest, I love to binge watch your stuff. Like 4 to 5 reviews at a time. So getting 1 a week is a turn off, and by the time you have 4 new ones to watch I'd forgotten about it... sorry bro. As far as the content, I thought your takes on the asylum films were classic and you just have to keep the same witty humor, with a similar delivery. Idc what genre it is, but you have to entertain to keep us coming back. Love ya brother, good luck

[@Mickey-Knox]

It's great to watch a Weird Al Impersonator do a review of 3 from Hell!

[@geneanthony3421]

Could have had Spaulding die in the shooting and had him come to Otis or Baby in the hotel in some sort of dream like sequence. It's not like its never been done before. Seems more logical than him getting shot tons of times, having him survive to be executed.

[@emperortrevornorton3119]

Sid was awesome even if it was a clip I gave a whiskey salute to the speech
