- The Lords of Salem (2012) Zombie's best movie follows a radio DJ (Sheri Moon Zombie) in Salem, Mass., as she unwittingly encounters a coven of witches through nightmares, visions, and hypnotic music.
- Halloween (2007) Zombie's reimagining of John Carpenter's classic slasher is one of his scariest and most dramatically effective works. While Carpenter declined to give Michael Myers much of a backstory, Zombie enthusiastically runs in the opposite direction, dedicating almost half the movie's runtime to the killer's childhood and unpacking the psychology behind his violence.
- The Devil's Rejects (2005) Zombie's sophomore feature is a direct sequel to his debut, and it's probably his bleakest, most anarchic movie to date — which means it's the purest example of his signature style and directorial ethos.
- House of 1000 Corpses (2003) Even though it's rough around the edges and structurally off-kilter, Zombie's debut feature remains the best display of his nightmarish creativity.

Like many Rob Zombie movies, his take on Halloween 2 was more of a retelling and not a simple remake of the 1981 film of the same name. Exploring both Laurie and Michael Myers’ pasts as well as Dr. Loomis’, the story is set right after the events of Halloween (2007) before a time jump of one year. Laurie is still dealing with the aftermath of that ...
Initially believed to be a continuation of the story of the Firefly family from House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil’s Rejects, 31was actually an original tale completely independent of the others that featured some frequent collaborators from Rob Zombie movies. Set during Halloween 1976, the story follows five carnival workers who are kidnapped by ...
Offering a complete departure from the typical Rob Zombie movies, the Netflix-exclusive film The Munsters was the director's take on the classic nostalgic property. Zombie's The Munsters was a pseudo-prequel to the 1960s show, and it was set in Transylvania where it followed a love-lorn vampire named Lily who falls head-over-heels for a gigantic sc...
The ending of The Devil's Rejects made it seem as if the leading trio of Otis, Baby, and Captain Spaulding had been killed by a hail of police gunfire to the tune of Lynyrd Skynyrd's classic rock staple "Free Bird." 14 years later though, 3 From Hell revealed that the Fireflies were only mostly dead, each having somehow been nursed back to health, ...
The Lords of Salemstood out from the rest of Rob Zombie's movies, but that didn't necessarily make it a strong piece of cinema. The story centers on witchcraft and satanism, and follows a DJ named Heidi (Sheri Moon Zombie) who receives a wooden box containing an album by a band called “The Lords”. As soon as she plays the record, she starts having ...
In 2007, Rob Zombie did what many have wanted but wouldn’t dare: take John Carpenter’s classic horror film Halloween and make it his own. 2007's Halloweenwas both a remake and a re-imagining and gave Michael Myers a backstory by following him during his time at Smith’s Grove Sanitarium after killing a school bully, his sister, and several others. I...
Zombie’s directorial debut was a strong one and set the tone for the rest of his filmography. House of 1000 Corpses took a page from classic exploitation films with strong influences from iconic horror movies like Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes. Set around Halloween 1977, House of 1000 Corpsesintroduced the Firefly family and their...
Two years after the release of House of 1000 Corpses, a sequel titled The Devil’s Rejects arrived with most of the original cast. The story is set in 1978 and reunites the Firefly family, who continue with their reign of horror, but with a few obstacles. After a raid on their home, only two members manage to escape while one is taken into custody a...

- The Devil’s Rejects (2005) When it comes to Rob Zombie, only one picture reigns supreme. The Devil’s Rejects is the sequel to the Firefly Trilogy and remains the filmmaker’s magnum opus to this day.
- House of 1000 Corpses (2003) Rob Zombie’s directorial debut altered the course of a generation of metal and horror enthusiasts. House of 1000 Corpses was Rob Zombie’s first film and the first installment of the Firefly Trilogy.
- Halloween (2007) Zombie’s first genuine box office success, and the picture that currently holds the record for the biggest opening weekend for any film on Labor Day weekend, is none other than his reimagining of the John Carpenter classic “Halloween.”
- 31 (2016) 31 is not a powerful film, but it is a great deal of fun. This is what occurs when Rob Zombie is free to do anything he wants, and each scene of this horrific nightmare of a film demonstrates his passion and delight.
- Werewolf Women of the S.S. (2007) The “lost movie” by Rob Zombie is one made up of enough material for a trailer and nothing more. That was on purpose too.
- 3 From Hell (2019) After escaping prison, the Firefly family goes on the run for one more rampage full of blood and chaos. Ten minutes of grainy “archival” footage open the film and by the time things really get going, it’s obvious this is a different film within Zombie’s Firefly trilogy, all the way up to its western-themed finale.
- 31 (2016) Carnival workers are forced into a life-or-death game with one objective: survive twelve hours against killer clowns. This one is not a slow burn and the violence never lets up.

- House of 1000 Corpses. Rob Zombie's debut might have been a miss with critics who didn't know what to think of the blood-drenched satire of American culture, but Fangoria readers, horrorhounds, and connoisseurs for all things slasher and splatter immediately took to the film.
- The Devil's Rejects. The sequel to House of 1000 Corpses took Rob Zombie's splatter pic and turned it on its ear by adding enough art house film elements to make it a proper indie movie.
- Halloween II. The tenth installment of the Halloween franchise (and the second sequel to a series that would eventually spawn three "Part 2s") Rob Zombie's Halloween II stands out for many reasons.
- The Zombie Horror Picture Show. A concert film from 2014 featuring the music of both White Zombie and Rob Zombie's solo efforts. Filmed at concerts in Dallas and Houston just after the release of Zombie's Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor album, the doc captures the complete mayhem that is a Rob Zombie concert, complete with giant dancing robots, pyrotechnics galore, massive screens showing clips from his films, and all sorts of demented theatrics that pair perfectly with heavy metal.
