@mousiegirl Are you referring to the movie of the same title that Paris Hilton was in?  I also liked watching that, although it is definitely different than the original 2 movies.

Did anyone watch the movie that was on TCM today before House of Wax?  It was a 1960 movie called Eyes Without a Face.  I liked it, but I don't think it got good reviews.  


 

@Pearlee   Yes, that is the other House of Wax movie I was referring to, watch it every year.  I didn't know there were two original movies, when was the second made?

@Linmo   Yes, that is the movie.  I wasn't aware there were two originals, and this one, I can only find the original with Vincent Price, and the movie made in 2005 which I was referring to.

@mousiegirl The first one in 1933 is titled "Mystery of the Wax Museum".  It is the same plot as Vincent Price's "Wax Museum".  One of the things that I realized about the 2005 movie is that the same actor plays both of the evil twin brothers.

@Linmo  Thanks, but I'll pass. I never "got into" that one.

There is another House of Wax that is scary,one of my favorites, made in 2005, much scarier than the original.  Usually, I favor an original, but this is different enough that one can't compare the two.


Although it is a broad remake of the '53 movie, it wasn't bad. Usually, at least for me, I haven't found many remakes even equal, let alone better, than the original but this one was different.
