View the TRAILER

Plot synopsis: (from IMDb) Based on the comics of Rob Zombie, the story follows the adventures of El Superbeasto, a washed-up Mexican luchador, and his sultry sidekick and sister Suzi-X as they confront an evil villain by the name of Dr. Satan. The adventure, set in the mythic world of Monsterland, also has a character named Murray the robot

I'm not Zombie's biggest fan. In my opinion, his Halloween is absolute garbage and the only thing worth a damn that he's done, filmwise, is Devil's Rejects. However, I am excited to see what he does with this monster that has been in the works for years. The cast alone is super exciting, here's a rundown: Paul Giamatti, Rosario Dawson, Danny Trejo, Bill Moseley, Sid Haig, Dee Wallace, Clint Howard, Harland Williams, Brian Posehn, Ken Foree, Tom Papa. Granted, this is not the first Zombie picture to house a cast that sounds like a horror fanboy's wet dream, but it still makes you want to see it.

I love how you could tell it was Paul doing the voice over, just by looking at the cartoon. Nice.

i'm somewhat excited to see this. Zombie can make a good movie when he sets his mind to it. house of a 1,000 Corpses has it's moments and Rejects was pretty great.

this seems like it might work. Halloween 2? not so much. let's not even get started with that one.
