Hell Yes!
by Smooth (San Francisco, CA USA)
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.
4/5
Zombie Comes Back
by Xania (WV, USA)
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.
3/5
The same old story
by J. Lopez
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.
2/5
Wink Wink, Nod Nod
by Brian Lueth (Chicago, IL United States)
Zombie's animated homage to the cartoon sleaze of the 70s and 80s finally sees the light of day and it's easy to understand why this over-budgeted, under-scripted cult cinema monster mash took so long to hit shelves...it just wasn't all that good. Even with above-average, though dated, animation and a bunch of A-list talent to voice characters, Zombie was unable to bring this concept to life, make us love his main character or even deliver on any quality sleaze. Some topless cartoon nudity doesn't make this Fritz The Cat.
Hardcore horror fans will likely get all the winks and nods that Zombie laced throughout his film and, to be fair, there are indeed one or two comical sequences on display but it all just felt so uninspired, generally unfunny and a bit of a drag. The film was about a masked wrestler questing to get "lucky"...and that's really it...end of story. There was a silly little subplot that featured Sherri Moon Zombie's character and her on and off battle with a bunch of undead zombies but none of it seemed to hit the right note.
Could this have been raunchier? It probably couldn't have hurt this flick. As it stands right now it'll titillate a few teens and end up in some collections to gather dust after one viewing.
I wanted to like Zombie's cartoon but it was too cult for mainstream viewers, wasn't scary enough for the horror crowd and not nearly sleazy enough for the exploitation fans. Honestly it felt like an extended and uncut episode of Ren & Stimpy with less comedy and zero boogers.
3/5
Eh.
by Donald A. Prentiss (minneapolis, mn United States)
Packed with a lot of inside genre nods and homage praising Russ Meyer to John Carpenter to Stanley Kubrick and, etc. - El Superbeasto is a bit overwhelming with a kitchen sink on top of that mountain. It seems to try to be like so many things and it's just a lot to process - it's like a Tarintino flick, but animated with stolen scenes from a million little unknown cult faves from yore. I liked it, glad I saw it. But it's not something I need to see again or even have in my collection. I appreciate what Zombie tries to do and wants to do, but he just never seems to pull it off and I am not really sure why. My major problem with the movie is Rosario Dawson's character's dialogue - the excessive Urban style yammering is not cute, funny, it's just plain annoying. This movie has everything I like in movies, packed full of all the genre greats - boobs, nazi's, werewolves, aliens, monster, devils, the list goes on, but it's just lifeless.
