The first Rob Zombie film I've liked since 'The Devil's Rejects'. It's not quite as good as that but overall I enjoyed it. It’s far from being great there's still some of the filmmaker’s usual shit in it and the finale is anticlimactic but there's some solid direction here with nice visuals and some truly effective sequences of brutality. Despite the terrible name, Doom Head is probably Zombie’s best character to date - a highly memorable horror villain brought to life with a great performance by the hugely talented character actor Richard Brake.

*** out of *****
