Plot

This pretty much picks up where House of 1,000 Corpses leaves off. The law heads toward the house with the very sick and criminal family to take them in, dead or alive. Two of the family members and Captain Spaulding escape and wreak havoc on a number of innocent bystanders. Will the law be able to stop them or will there be another sequel?

Pros

This film is well written and has a great soundtrack. It looks like Rob Zombie had a lot more money to play with on this film than on its predecessor. The violence and gore is pumped up and major kudos for the lovely 50 year old Priscilla Barnes; she puts on a performance that had to be extremely uncomfortable for her. My favorite scene has to be when the clown, Captain Spaulding, really scares the crap out of a little boy; now I understand how some children dislike clowns.

Cons

If you don't like gore or the "F" bomb (according to Wikipedia there are 224 of them dropped) you'll want to stay away from this film.
