ROB ZOMBIE: More 'Devil's Rejects' Casting News Announced

May 5, 2004

According to a posting on Rob Zombie's web site, "everyone's favorite Charles Manson," Steve Railsback ("Helter Skelter", "Lifeforce", "Ed Gein") has signed on to appear in "The Devil's Rejects", the much-anticipated sequel to Zombie's directorial debut, "House of 1000 Corpses", tentatively due later in the year. "Mr. Railsback will portray Sheriff Ken Dwyer, the local sheriff who finds the remains of what the Devil's Rejects are leaving behind in their wake as they move across the country."

As previously reported, "The Devil's Rejects" (which "refers to the nickname that the media has bestowed upon our favorite band of murderers") will feature a plot revolving around "the revenge-driven brother of slain Sheriff Wydell hunting down the family with a band of bounty hunters." All original cast members are said to be on board.

Even though "House of 1000 Corpses" was not a box office smash, the relatively low-budget flick's (which cost a reported $7 million to produce) $12.5 million haul was enough to make Lions Gate Films happy.
