Deontae D This movie is ok, It was my first time watching Vincent price house of wax (1953), It's a remake of the 1933 mystery of the wax museum, I need to check that one out too, I still like the 2005 remake though, But this one was pretty good.

Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/20/24 Full Review Aaron C Classic horror film, don't understand how anyone can dislike this film. Storyline is great, the effects for the time are great. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/19/24 Full Review Blu B A Horror Classic. Really well done across the board. The setting is memorable, The killer is really good, the special effects are really good also especially the opening fire sequence. It's a really clever idea and it works great on the big screen. There's something inherently creepy about wax figures and this capitalizes on that with a reallly creepy and disturbing plot. No jumpscares and minimal gore with a pretty good plot twist that may seem obvious or might not. Were led to believe Price is the killer but it throws enough twists and turns to keep you guessing. Vincent Price is excellent in this and is easily the best thing. Whenever he's on screen it's at it's best. Everyone else is good but no one is as meorable as Price and whenever it isn't focused on him which is probably half the film it isn't as strong. It's still good though thanks to the solid direction and interesting plot. Also, the killer scenes feel like a completely different film at times compared to the main wax museum storyline as well. The 3D gimmicks really don't add much here and seeing it in normally it really isn't that big a distraction here as it's pretty minimal actually from what I can tell. The only real obvious part is the paddleball guy who was amusing to his credit. But all comes together well in the end. Anyone who is a horror fan, fan of any actors in this, or the director should check this out. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/15/24 Full Review JJJJJJ J Acceptable. Maybe above average for its time. I really liked the opening sequence. The problem with this film is that very early on you know the conclusion to the film and the question then just becomes when will they get there and how? Unfortunately that journey was neither interesting, or thought provoking. I'd skip this film unless you have a good reason.
