Director Rob Zombie is known for his gory horror filmHouse Of 1000 Corpses,which introduced the extensive Firefly family who would become the focal point of its subsequent franchise. The 2003 film was Zombie's directorial debut, and immediately introduced the genre to Zombie's terrifyingly enticing cinematic creativity. Relatives of the Firefly family are known for their unabashed sadistic behaviors, which they inflict on each of their unsuspecting victims. As their story continued to expand over the past seventeen years, their family tree has grown increasingly complicated. Here is every member of the Firefly family and their relation explained.

When Rob Zombie first introduced Captain Spaulding (Sid Haig), Otis (Bill Moseley), Baby (Sheri Moon Zombie), Tiny (Matthew McGrory), Rufus (Robert Allen Mukes), Earl (Jake McKinnon), and Mother Firefly (Karen Black) in 2003, they became a staple of the subgenre of torture porn in the film genre.House Of 1000 Corpsesshowcases their absolute brutality and lack of remorse towards anyone, living or dead. They're shown scalping innocent travelers, disemboweling them, and creating horrific shrines to proudly honor their gruesome kills. The 2005 sequel,The Devil's Rejects,followed the family as they continuously evade law enforcement agents while also committing countless acts of bodily torment.
