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.

Rated: 3/4

Brooklyn Magazine

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

Noel Murray

Los Angeles Times

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.

Patrick Cavanaugh

The Wolfman Cometh

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.

Rated: 1/5

Deep Focus Review

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

Rated: 1/4

3.5/5 A bit cliche but overall great I personally think this is the best zombie film so far, it is a little cliche and predictable but I enjoyed it overall. The plot is simple but effective, making it easy to follow and with plenty of action and gore. It's a film that isn't too serious with its characters which I think works in its favour, Richard Drake steals the show entirely though, his portrayal of Doom Head is spot on. A great film to watch on halloween and one I would definitely watch again.

While it has it's flaws, if you are looking for some fun horror then this is it. Also, you really can't go wrong with Malcolm McDowell.
