House of Wax (Blu-ray Disc, 2006)

From the renowned Horror producers Joel Silver and Robert Zemeckis who brought you (House on Haunted Hill, Ghost Ship, Gothika), comes a totally new idea in film, or not? Even though House of Wax was a movie earlier done with Vincent Price as the main acting role, this movie easily dwarfs any other production of its kind. Directed by Jaume Collett-Serra literally poured his soul into this production. Thousands of man-hours were involved in make-up, masks, set design, special effects, and re-colorization as well as an entire town built especially for the set, the backdrop for this film was an enormous undertaking.

Back in 2005, I never really had time to go and see this movie in the theater and somehow, I never got to see this until Spring 2009. The concept of having psycho killers who entomb their victims in wax within a precepts of a wax museum is bizarre yet worked well in the earlier film. Vincent Price's film was quite good since he also in the film had a hideous face hidden by a wax made mask. Vincent was honored in this movie by the use of his name as you will soon notice when you watch or re-watch this movie.

Little does anyone know that these six college friends were going to stumble into such terror. Even with Paris Hilton in the film, it turned out really good. Most of the characters in this movie I really didn't relate to, but that should really matter much, except that it helps when you feel more apt to care about what happens to them.

We find that even though Elisha Cuthbert is 5'3" is too short for her acting counterparts, they put wooden blocks on her feet to bring her up to the 7'3" dude that goes into town with the local guy to get a fan belt.

The fire and melting scenes were totally awesome and why wouldn't it be since the entire house was supposedly made from wax. The gore and violence was a bit too much sometime for me to stomach, but I guess that's expected if you want a film to be totally creepy.

Siamese twins gone wrong in a Ghost Town? Wow, you wouldn't have ever guessed this in a thousand years. You would have guessed that all the people where set-up dead wax figures either. This dummy town would have been perfect for the army testing grounds for a nuclear detonation. Ha.

Critically speaking, I never really could figure out why they had taken the alternate beginning scene out of the movie. This one scene where a friends car breaks down and she winds up calling a wrecker and the wrecker man kills her.

Later in the film Elisha Cuthbert's character gets her forefinger snipped off by one of the twins. She didn't really scream much and she didn't really later act like she was in pain or panting hard or looking to anxious or afraid. So hopefully next movie they will take their cues on better believability.

Another things that I kept asking myself was how did the twins get power from the power grid? Anyway, I'd only make one more change. The roadkill guy should have been driving the ambulance.
