House of 1000 Corpses would be a better rent than House of the Dead. I thought House of the Dead really, really sucked. (And Im a guy that loves cheesy over the top gore and bad acting.) House of the Dead is too terrible to be funny though. And what the fuck is with them flashing clips from the video game every 15 minutes or so? That sucked. It totally takes away any momentum that the movie is trying to build when the scene sbruptly cuts to a clip of a fuckin video game zombie.
House of 1000 Corpes is better. (But not great.) It's basically a Texas Chansaw knock off, but there is sufficient gore as well as some suspenseful scenes.
But if you ask me, I'd say go rent Wrong Turn. (Unless you already saw it.)
