The Devil's Rejects (2005) 7/10

Starring : Sid Haig, Bill Moseley, Sheri Moon Zombie, Matthew McGrory, William Forsythe
Director : Rob Zombie
Running Time : 105 mins

When the Firefly farmhouse is raided by the police, they discover evidence of almost 100 murders having taken place there so the Firefly family, consisting of Otis (Moseley), Baby (Moon) and Captain Spaulding (Haig), are forced to go on the run to avoid being executed for their crimes by the cop chasing them, who's almost as crazy as they are.

This really did have a seventies feel to it, which worked perfectly in the surroundings, and it even featured actors from classic seventies horrors such as The Hills Have Eyes and Dawn Of The Dead. It was unusual to have the movie largely from the point of view of the killers, but this just made it even more effective than it could have been.
