A tour of director/musician/Hellbilly Rob Zombie's life, including appearances from merry pranksters like Kurt Russell, Stan Lee, Lionel Richie and many corpses
Rob Zombie releases the metal/dance remix compilation 'Mondo Sex Head' this week (FYI, he's not bandwagon jumping: He's been recasting his songs in an electronic context since 1996's 'White Zombie Presents Supersexy Swingin' Sounds'). Because Zombie has enjoyed such a long, strange trip of a career, we're taking a look back on his varied Hellbilly life and showcasing some of his weirdest pairings with other celebrities over the years. In the picture above, Rob Zombie (far right) poses with White Zombie in 1987 at CBGB in New York.
