    The Hollywood Reporter | Michael Rechtshaffen

    It plays like "Bonnie & Clyde" as made by a committee comprised of George Romero, Sam Peckinpah, Tobe Hooper, Sergio Leone and John Waters -- but Zombie still manages to inject a pervasive flavor all his own. Read full review

    The Onion (A.V. Club) | Keith Phipps

    Zombie fills The Devil's Rejects with thrilling setpieces, pays homage to his inspirations without outright ripping them off (most of the time), brings back some cult-movie icons (hello, Mary Woronov and E.G. Daily), and works in some profanely clever dialogue. Read full review

    Chicago Sun-Times | Roger Ebert

    Here is a gaudy vomitorium of a movie, violent, nauseating and really a pretty good example of its genre.

    The New York Times | Lawrence Van Gelder

    The Devil's Rejects is a trompe l'oeil experiment in deliberately retro filmmaking. It looks sensational, but there is a curious emptiness at its core. Read full review

    Los Angeles Times | Kevin Crust

    Crass, vacuous exercise in grind-house stylistics. Read full review

    Village Voice | Benjamin Strong

    By rubbing your nose in this hillbilly mayhem, Zombie all but dares you to acknowledge your liberal elitism, simply because just now, in Dubya's America, you don't happen to find anything particularly funny or lovable about stupid, dangerous provincials. Read full review

    This is a vile and reprehensible motion picture. Read full review
