Though closer to early 70s slasher victims, there is a Final Girl in House of 1000 Corpses. Denise is first identified as the Final Girl in her early conversation with her father (a scene mentioned previously). Though a slight and forgettable scene, hers is the only character with any mentioned connection to the outside world and the only person with an emotional attachment. As Clover states, “The practiced viewer distinguishes her from her friends minutes into the film” (39). The Final Girl sequence, according to Clover, “occupies the last ten to twenty minutes” (39) of a film. In House, the Final Girl sequence begins with about fifteen minutes remaining.

Visuals: While far from being a surrealist film, House of 1000 Corpses has a tone of heightened reality, similar to Natural Born Killers. The random montages are similar to many of the visual techniques used in the latter movie as well.

"House of the Dead" is the type of film that gives horror movies a bad name. While fast-paced (the movie is essentially one long chase scene), there is no sense of timing. No effective suspense or scares. Characters as dumb as a box of hair and as thin as a slice of cheese. And, just for good measure, a cloying rap song pops up during the film's most violent fight scene. Yeah, that'll have viewers awake at night.
