1. The Lords of Salem (2012) Zombie's best movie follows a radio DJ (Sheri Moon Zombie) in Salem, Mass., as she unwittingly encounters a coven of witches through nightmares, visions, and hypnotic music.

Rob Zombie's House Of 1000 Corpses is a lot to sit through, and at times is a victim of its own overly zany ambition. Nevertheless, it's the first stepping stone in the path of one of the most fascinating and talented directorial careers in the industry, and is a completely batshit mental curiosity in its own right.
