I might have let Wydell live, he was a great character fueled with hate. Id also have the sound of the car swerving off the road and crashing into a tree at the end during the last freezframe. deffinitly would have had Tiny not come at the end cuz that was way to predictable. And maybe possibly not have Ken Foree's character come out to help them.

SPOILERS AHEAD

Rejects is one of the best films I have seen this year.

ANd for a filmmakers second I was very impressed.

I love the ending, it reminded me of alot of old western films with the final standoff.

I found myself laughing out loud at alot of parts. Some of Moseleys lines almost had me on the floor laughing so hard.

I think people in the theater thought I was a little demented but who gives a shit.

Tiny making his return to save Baby was predictable, but where the hell is Dr. Satan???

The sound track was also excellent, every song that was played fit the moment in the film to a T.

Roger Ebert gave this film a thumbs up. I was surprised that he even reviewed it.

*ANxiously awaiting Rob Zombies next project*

I agree with those statements 100%

Might've been his way of seperating the two films, I saw a interview where he said he didn't want Rejects to be looked at as a sequal but rather as it's own film.

SPOILER: HOKC
Rob Zombie said that Dr. Satan was suppose to be a figment of that girl's imagination in HOKC. Not real. I was surprised by it but I guess it makes more sense because it was pretty ridiculous in my opinion.

You've really done your research on this one

Twist ending? There was no twist to the ending, every horror characters life comes to an end. Shit, what horror movies have you been watching?

Opps, I spoiled the ending. Well fuck me.

Yes yes yes!!!
I also absolutley loved the ending, it was both dramatic and funny to me....the theatre died laughing when Otis stopped the car and sat for what seemed like ages, then the screen pans to the road block. Honsesty, I didn't see that coming, and it actually made me sad, The way it was filmed was even perfect...I wouldn't change anything about the ending, but I guess if I had SOMETHING my way I would have not replaced Mother Firefly. Leslie Easterbrook just bugged me to no end. I'da killed her off at the begining with grampa.

SPOILER: to carpe

Hello? Anyone up there. About the twist: I was referring to sheriff wydell eventually turning into the same violent psycho that he so hated and was hunting...... Uh duh! That is a TWIST that most people didnt see coming. Uh duh!

PS... Do you find it funny to spoil the ending for people who havent seen it? Douchebag. Learn how to type SPOILER if you are gonna write the ending down.

Just to clear MY ass on this one..I quoted a post that had spoilers, and a heading :)

This thread has seemed to turn into one big spolier

I would have put Tiny in the chairs with them all and Wydell would have killed him with an axe. And Baby could find another way to kill Wydell. What didnt you like about this movie and what would you change?



Doesn't really make sense that Wydell would tie him up, If he would've had a face to face encounter with Tiny he wouldn't have been able to knock him out and tie him up because he's to damn big and strong. So when you think about it all Wydell would've been able to do in a face to face encounter is shoot Tiny. So it may have been predictable but there's no such thing as a perfect/flawless film and it did fit so I think it's fine the way it is.
