ROB ZOMBIE's 'House Of 1,000' Corpses: The Hollywood Premiere
April 10, 2003A bunch of pictures taken at last night's (April 9) Hollywood premiere of ROB ZOMBIE's "House Of 1,000 Corpses" movie at Arclight Theatre have been posted online at this location. Photos taken at the after-party immediately following the premiere have been posted here.
In related news, Fangoria.com has posted an interview with one of the movie's starts, Sheri Moon — who also happens to be Mrs. Zombie's in real life — in which she discusses working with her husband on the movie.
"We enjoy working together, so he wrote the part for me," Moon said. "He had more faith in me than I did! I guess he saw something from directing me in the videos that made him think I could handle it. He knows me better than anyone, so it worked out OK. I was really nervous, but it was a lot of fun."
Moon also said that the bonds of friendship on the movie helped immeasurably during the nearly two-year ordeal of getting it released, during which the film was dropped by squeamish execs at both Universal and MGM before finding a home at Lion's Gate. "All of us who worked on the movie stayed in touch and kept wanting to hear good news and to have the movie come out," she recalled. “It definitely was a nightmare for Rob. At one point after a year and a half, I just got sick of hearing about it, because there were so many highs and lows, and so many discouraging moments.
"I haven't seen the final, finished product, but people probably overreacted. It's a scary movie and I don't think anyone will be let down, but Universal kind of pussied out. I mean, at the time, they had just released 'Hannibal', and that's pretty graphic, with the brain-eating scene and disembowelment and everything. But having a star like Anthony Hopkins, which is a familiar face, made you remember you were watching a movie. 'House Of 1,000 Corpses' has a lot of unknowns in it, and that possibly makes it seem more real."
