Movie Rating

Fifth entry in Marvel's 'Phase 3' (that started with Captain America: Civil War), and the last film to star Chris Hemsworth's Thor until Avengers: Infinity War (a whole 2 movies later), that sees Thor take on a more comedic persona than before.

This is also the one that takes inspiration from Planet Hulk as part of its plot thread, in which Thor is forced to partake in Gladiatorial combat against the Hulk (making an appearance for the first time since Age of Ultron) - "he's a friend from work!" - just as Cate Blanchett's Hela is freed from her imprisonment following the death (spoiler!) of a major character early on, and just as she starts a war against Asgard.

After the deadly shootout in The Devil's Rejects, the Rejects miraculously survive and face trial. All three are given the death penalty or life sentences. Due to SId Haig's health, Captain Spaulding does not a huge part, but his performance is still extremely memorable. Otis Driftwood takes center stage as he regathers his family after a massacre leading to his escape from prison. On the run, Otis, Baby, and Wolfman (don't ask) hide out in a Mexican town because they love killing people for sport. Anyway, director Rob Zombie once again crafts a love letter to 70s exploitation films even if he never intended to make another chapter to the House of 1000 Corpses series.
