Rob Zombie: How The Director Pays Tribute to 1970s and 1980s Horror

Like Quentin Tarantino, Rob Zombie wears his influences on his sleeves, constantly paying tribute to classic exploitation and horror films from the 1970s and 1980s. Most of his films take place in the 1970s, many of them on Halloween night. Directors of slasher and exploitation films like Tobe Hooper, Wes Craven, Sean Cunningham, and John Carpenter are major influences.
