The Haunted World of El Superbeasto Reviews:
Entertaining 
2009-11-30 - Very entertaining!!! Way more sexual then I thought it was going to be. But still enjoyed it. Love the songs.
A delirious, fun movie. 
2009-11-24 - Rob Zombie's "The Haunted World of El Superbeasto" is a fast paced, delirious, fun time. It moves fast, entertains the hell out of the viewer, and is full of cartoon boobies! Viewers familiar with Zombie's first 2 movies, "House of 1,000 Corpses" and "The Devil's Rejects" will recognize the voices of Bill Mosely & Sid Haig as well as his wife Sheri Moon Zombie." It's a recommended movie for those of us who wish Rob didn't do the 2 "Halloween" remakes and hope to see him do more original stuff. And this is a step in that better direction.
Hell Yes! 
2009-11-23 - This is probably the best animated movie / cartoon I've ever seen. I watched it on shrooms and it blew me away. If you're a fan of twisted cult movies, don't miss it. It's worth every penny and every minute of your life. Absolutely awesome.
Zombie Comes Back 
2009-11-18 - Rob Zombie has done it again and come back with another twisted but funny movie. Bought this as a gift for my adult son who is a R. Zombie fan. He is pleased with it and looking forward to another. Thank you Amazon for the reasonable pricing and worry-free shipping.
The same old story 
2009-11-03 - I really want to like Rob Zombie's body of film work. I really do. I made excuses for his early stuff since he was just starting out. I made excuses for Halloween since it really wasn't his story. But now he's come out with something uniquely his and it's just a tad disappointing. Maybe I'm just expecting too much, but Superbeasto just leaves me flat. It plays out like a Ren and Stimpy episode in overdrive. At first blush that might not sound like a bad thing, except that R&S was awesome when it first came out almost 20 years ago - and to still ape that style and vibe is just a little tired. Sadly, I'm starting to think RZ just doesn't have the film-making chops to make the movies he sees in his head - kinda like giving a five year old sheet music for Mozart and expecting a symphony.
Potty humor abounds and there are even some clever moments, but all in all The Haunted World of El Superbeasto is simply unremarkable.
Two and a half stars if they had it.
