I'm seeing parallels
I just saw Pink Flamingos for the first time and I drew parallels between Divine, Cotton, and Cookie to Spaulding, Baby, and Otis. Especially, perhaps, because Captain Spaulding's and Divine's makeup are similar, ha. Maybe I am nuts, but I know Rob is a fella who loves his 70s and earlier cult films, and wears his influences on his sleeve, intentionally or not. And though different genres, I feel like there's a touch of Pink Flamingos in House of 1000 Corpses alongside all his other horror influences that often get brought up as inspiration (like Texas Chainsaw.)
Anyway, just curious if anyone else sees this too or knows maybe if Rob's ever even mentioned it outright.
