The Zombieman scores points for including a song called “Werewolf Women of the SS”, which was also the title of the fake-movie trailer he made for the “intermission” during Quentin Tarantino’s exploitation double-bill of 2007, Grindhouse. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

And it seems as if the only reason Zombie wrote “Sick Bubble Gum” was so he could repeatedly chant “Rock motherfucker, rock the motherfucker, rock motherfucker yeah.” And it doesn’t help that he still can’t sing worth beans.Īs a song title, “Mars Needs Women” is enough to brighten the heart of any B-movie fanatic, but the tune itself is bogged down by ponderous power chords and a tedious chorus. While his first post-White Zombie release featured catchy tracks like “Dragula” and “Living Dead Girl”, this latest batch of tunes is fairly lacking in memorable licks and hooks. On Hellbilly Deluxe 2, hard-rocking horror auteur Rob Zombie combines his love of low-budget fright flicks and grinding metal the same way he did on his debut solo album, 1998’s Hellbilly Deluxe.
