Got a chance to see this today, and I have to say, all of the ingredients for a perfect slasher movie were present. For the duration, its genuinley shocking and full of suspense with some disturbing performances from the main cast.
It's not all derogatory and vacuous either, there is some great cinematography - I loved the way the scene at the begining with the tear gas was shot, and the final scene was well done too.
The bits of black humour fit in well too, all in all I'd say we can thank Rob Zombie for making a slahser movie they way they should be made.

AMEN!
A couple walked out of the cinema just after the gun in the pants scene, ive never actually seen anyone walk out of a film before because it offended their sensibilities.
I liked the film, not as much as the first one, but it was good, i think it was more disturbing because the humour was kind of toned down. William Forsyte was incredible, made me laugh so much and i loved all the moustache action, almost every character had a moustache.
This was more like a 70's exploitation than a horror, and yet again he used the dead skin mask, but i suppose his last effort never made it to the cinema so i suppose he wanted to see it on the big screen.
Also you could see so much detail on the faces of the characters, every line and drop of sweat, i thought that was effective.
Was it the same actress that played firefly in the first one?
Also i didnt like tiny's make up, too over the top.
I've finally seen it on the fanasy-film-fest and I really like it. Not as much as the first one but it's good. Rob has gotten great actors in both movies, bill, sid and karen and in the second one the cop. they are great. Why isn't karen in the second one? does anyone know?
it's been announced as being more brutal than the first but I don't thought so. (except the scene in the hotel with otis and the women. I hate those stuff) I'm not quite sure if I would even call it a Horror movie.
But I think Rob did a great job. I like the cuts (the one with captain spaulding and the coffee was brilliant), the humor and the music is great also.
