Great Film: House of Wax
Great Gore & suspense....but NO Paris touching wax and saying THAT'S HOT!???
I saw a sneak preview of this Tuesday night with a group of friends and
we had a blast! After seeing sneak peaks for BOOGEYMAN (Horrible! 3/10)
and Amityville Remake (so-so 6/10) I enjoyed this a lot more! As seen
in the trailer, one knock I had was believing that a whole town could
be "forgotten" but this is a cheesy popcorn horror movie so I accept it
for what it is.
My only major complaint is I assumed Paris Hilton would touch wax or
get dipped etc. and moan "that's hot" but they didn't do that (how
could they resist???).
There is NO nudity from the 2 girls although Paris looks great in her
lingerie! I'm surprised they didn't put a 3rd "hot token victim" in the
movie for some needless nudity which is the norm for this type of
flick! I won't list any death or plot spoilers BUT I will say that
Paris & Eliza both get roughed up good!
The characters are developed decently and are somewhat likable (not
like Cabin Fever where you wanted them to die) and the movie has a
decent pace although nothing happens in the 1st 30 minutes like most
horror films.
I give it a 8/10 as it delivered good scares and gore and I had low
expectations going into it. If you go with some friends that like
cheesy horror movies you'll have a good time.
