Rob Zombie, born Robert Bartleh Cummings on January 12, 1965, is a prominent figure in the heavy metal music scene and the film industry. Originally from Haverhill, Massachusetts, he moved to New York City at the age of 18 to pursue careers in music and film. Over the decades, Zombie has distinguished himself as a multi-talented musician, director, screenwriter, and producer.
Rob Zombie began his professional music career in 1985 when he co-founded the heavy metal band White Zombie. The group gained widespread popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s, known for their fusion of metal and industrial sounds. Notable albums such as La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Volume One and Astro-Creep: 2000 solidified their status in the metal community. Zombie remained with White Zombie until the group disbanded in 1998.
He subsequently launched a solo career that proved highly successful. His debut solo album Hellbilly Deluxe featured hit singles like "Dragula," "Living Dead Girl," and "Superbeast," all of which became fan favorites and charted on Billboard. Other successful tracks include "Never Gonna Stop" and "Demon Speeding." His stage presence and unique blend of horror-themed lyrics continue to make him a symbol within the heavy metal genre.
Zombie married Sheri Moon on October 31, 2002. The couple has maintained a close personal and professional relationship, as Sheri Moon Zombie appears in many of Zombie's films. They do not have any children as of now, and they generally keep their personal lives private. Their marriage is reportedly strong, with both partners frequently collaborating creatively.
Beyond music, Rob Zombie has made a significant impact as a filmmaker. He wrote and directed his debut horror film House of 1000 Corpses in 2003, which gained a cult following despite mixed reviews. Its success led to the sequel, The Devil's Rejects, further establishing his reputation as a horror filmmaker.
