Review – House of Wax

This famous Vincent Price vehicle is such a classic that it’s pretty much a cliché at this point. You’ve heard the plot before: mad genius artist makes ultra-lifelike wax dummies for his museum by killing people and coating them with wax. Sure, it’s dated, and the fact that it was originally shot in 3-D makes some of the visuals a little weird (especially the paddle-ball sequence). But it still holds up, due in large measure to Price’s wonderful performance. Worth seeing
