Rob Zombie

Zombie directed the House of 1000 Corpses sequel The Devil's Rejects (2005), which received a more positive reception than its predecessor. His third studio album, Educated Horses was released in 2006 and marked a departure from his earlier style. It became his third album to enter the top 10 of the Billboard 200, but saw a decrease in sales compared to his previous releases. Deciding to focus on his filmmaking career, he directed Halloween (2007), a remake of the classic 1978 horror film. The film became his highest-grossing to date, though was generally received negatively by critics. He later directed Halloween II (2009), which failed to match the success of its predecessor. He released the animated film The Haunted World of El Superbeasto that same year. He returned to music with the release of his fourth studio album, Hellbilly Deluxe 2 (2010), which peaked at no. 8 in the U.S. In 2012, Zombie released the remix album Mondo Sex Head. In 2013, he directed the horror film The Lords of Salem and released his fifth album Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor. In 2016, he directed the horror film 31 and released his sixth album The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser. In 2021, he released his seventh studio album The Lunar Injection Kool Aid Eclipse Conspiracy.
