The “House of 1000 Corpses” 20th Anniversary Editio nBox Set is available for pre-order now from the Lionsgate shop and is expected to be released on April 11.

When Rob Zombie’s “House of 1000 Corpses” slashed its way into theaters 20 years ago, 1970s-style horror — and camp — returned with bone-snapping, scream-inducing vengeance. Zombie’s directorial debut, this first film of a trilogy, introduces the Firefly family, backwoods sadists who plunge two young couples into a nightmare world of torture, satanic ritual, and cannibalism.

With a killer cast including horror legends Sheri Moon Zombie, Bill Moseley, Sid Haig, and Karen Black, House of 1000 Corpses is both a homage to a golden era and a scary good time from an innovative, unrivaled shock-master.
