Horror got nasty in the mid-2000s. We knew we wouldn't be able to fit everything we wanted to say about the torture porn (or "gorno") wave into one episode, so instead we'll be doing a whole series looking at the key directors and franchises that emerged during that period. 

First up? Rob Zombie. In this episode, we cover House of 1000 Corpses (2003), The Devil's Rejects (2005), and Halloween (2007), with help from writer and Rob Zombie expert CJ Lines.
