Wikipedia article
"'House of 1000 Corpses'" is the final track on Rob Zombie's second solo album 'The Sinister Urge'.[http://www.metal.de/cdreviews.php4?was=review&id=9610 Rob Zombie - The Sinister Urge - CD-Review bei metal.de] The song was used in the 2003 horror movie of the same name, which was written and directed by Zombie.
Review
The song features audio clips from 'Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS'. Although the song runs for 9:26 on the album, the song itself only runs for 6:26. There is about a minute of static noise and then a hidden song titled "Unholy Three" (starts at 7:45) which occupies the remainder of the track. This is the second time Zombie has made extended pieces of music, the first being the 11-minute "Blood, Milk and Sky", released under Zombie's previous band, White Zombie.
Release
The song also makes an appearance on Zombie's greatest hits album 'The Best of Rob Zombie'.[http://movies.about.com/library/weekly/aa1000corpsessoundtrack.htm House of 1000 Corpses Movie-Soundtrack News, Features, Track List]
