Critics Consensus

31 delivers all the high-energy gore Rob Zombie fans have come to expect, but a lack of fresh ideas and likable characters mean only the already converted need apply.

Zombie may not be working outside of his comfort zone, but 31 is one of his most impressive films to date.

Horror piles on horror, absurdity on absurdity, all of it treated by Zombie with carnivalesque abstraction.

The Rob Zombie brand promises hard-core horror and scuzzy atmosphere, and "31" delivers just that. Even on autopilot, Zombie makes movies that hit hard and leave a stain.

1/5

Coming off the hypnotic, stylish, and divisive Lords of Salem, 31 is the absolute opposite end of the spectrum, making something visually and narratively abrasive and irritating.

1/4

Zombie forces his corny instincts into every line of dialogue, disconnecting the viewer from the experience on any relatable, emotional level.

This feels like Rob Zombie on autopilot. The concept of wealthy elites watching people suffer should have carried some bite, but it lands flat and never digs deeper than surface-level shock. The villains, especially the caricatures, feel gratuitous rather than provocative, adding noise instead of tension. There’s little to no character development, which makes it hard to care who survives and who doesn’t. What’s left is a familiar grindhouse aesthetic, loud, grimy, and nihilistic, but without anything new to say.

There is plenty of gore but the plot is pretty non-existant. Costumes are cool as are the stunts.

I thought the plot was weak and just couldn’t get into it! It has some great kills but beyond that I was really disappointed! I am terrified of clowns and this movie didn’t do a thing to me! Also I found the way it ended to be some real bs… I like my movies tied up with a bow and hate being left with what happens next! It’s worth a watch but I definitely haven’t watched it again!
