Description: HOUSE OF WAX (BLU-RAY 2006) BRAND NEW - HORROR - THRILLER - DRAMA - ACTION - ADVENTURE - SUSPENSE PRODUCT INFORMATION PROVIDED BELOW ~ Product Description House of Wax (2005) You know the one about the group of horny kids who get offed one by one? Yeah, so do director Jaume Collet-Serra and his screenwriters, who have updated an old Vincent Price flick and sandwiched it between hearty slices of The Blair Witch Project and various Friday the 13th films. Lots of WB and Fox network hotties--including 24's Elisha Cuthbert, One Tree Hill's Chad Michael Murray, and, well, Paris Hilton--have car trouble and stumble onto a town populated by real killer personalities. The R-rated result is fairly gruesome and, though no one ever quite looks frightened enough, Collet-Serra knows his way around a jolting suspense sequence or two. Cuthbert and an unintentionally funny Murray (striking ludicrous poses as some kind of real toughie) act more like angry ex-lovers than the fraternal twins they're supposed to be; Hilton acts bored while her real-life video scandal is exploited for ironic kicks; and the film heads shamelessly over-the-top with each new twist. As an exercise in bloody mayhem, it has a few novel touches, but you can easily find better scares. --Steve Wiecking House of WaxTheatrical release poster From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia House of Wax is a 2005 slasher film directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, in his feature directorial debut, and written by Chad Hayes and Carey W. Hayes. The film stars Elisha Cuthbert, Chad Michael Murray, Brian Van Holt in a dual role, Paris Hilton, Jared Padalecki, Jon Abrahams, and Robert Ri'chard. It is a remake of the 1953 film of the same name, itself a remake of the 1933 film Mystery of the Wax Museum,[4] based on the story "The Wax Works" by Charles S. Belden. The soundtrack features music by bands including Deftones, My Chemical Romance, and Interpol. House of Wax premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and was released in United States theaters on May 6, 2005, by Warner Bros. Pictures. It grossed $70.1 million worldwide and received generally negative reviews from critics, who criticized its lack of originality, screenplay, and characters, but praised the performances and atmosphere. Plot On the way to a football game, Carly Jones, her brother Nick, her boyfriend Wade Felton and their friends – Dalton Chapman, Paige Edwards and Blake Johnson – set up camp for the night in a wood. A stranger in a pickup truck arrives, then leaves after Nick smashes one of his headlights. The next day, Wade discovers his car's fan belt has been severed; a local named Lester offers to drive Wade and Carly to the nearby town of Ambrose while the rest of the group head to the game. In Ambrose, which is virtually a ghost town, Bo Sinclair offers to sell Carly and Wade a fan belt and drive them back to their car after he finishes attending a funeral. While waiting, they visit the central feature of the town: "Trudy's House of Wax", a wax museum which is itself, like everything inside, made of wax. They follow Bo to his house to get the fan belt; Carly waits in his truck while Wade goes inside to use the bathroom. Wade is knocked unconscious by Bo's twin brother, Vincent, who wears a wax mask to cover his facial disfigurement from where they were once conjoined. When Carly notices Bo's truck has a broken headlight and realizes it was he who visited the campsite, she flees, chased by Bo who catches her and takes her to the gas station cellar. Vincent covers Wade's body in molten wax. Realizing they will not arrive at the game in time, Paige and Blake return to the campsite while Nick and Dalton arrive in Ambrose to look for Carly and Wade. When Carly attempts to call for help, Bo cuts off her fingertip. She gets Nick's attention who fends off Bo and frees Carly, while Dalton finds Wade as part of the House of Wax, restrained in his wax coating. Dalton tries to free Wade by peeling off the wax from his face, inadvertently removing his skin in the process. Vincent ambushes Dalton and slashes off a section of Wade's face, causing him to die of shock, before decapitating Dalton. While searching the town for help, the Joneses realize that the wax figures, both in the House of Wax and placed around Ambrose to make it appear populated, are actually the wax-coated corpses of its inhabitants and visitors lured there. Vincent had been attempting to continue the wax sculpting work of his mother and the House of Wax's creator, Trudy Sinclair, after her death, but Bo began manipulating Vincent into making more realistic figures out of their victims. At the campsite, Vincent murders Blake and chases Paige into an abandoned sugar mill, where he kills her with a metal pipe. Vincent encounters the Joneses in the House of Wax basement. Nick unintentionally starts a fire causing an inferno. Upstairs, Nick battles Bo and is stabbed in the leg before Carly beats Bo to death with a baseball bat. Vincent chases Carly to the top floor where she tries to reason with him but then stabs him in the back. Vincent falls to his death on top of Bo's corpse, while the Joneses escape as the House of Wax melts to the ground. The next morning local authorities, having seen the smoke, arrive and report that the town had been abandoned for a decade since the sugar mill went out of business. As the Joneses are driven away in an ambulance, one of the officers is told that the Sinclair family did not have just two sons, but three. The ambulance passes by Lester, who waves the siblings goodbye while smiling. StorylineSix friends are on their way to a football game. They decide to camp out for the night and continue driving the next day. The next day the friends find that they're having car troubles, so two of the friends accept a stranger's ride into a small town named Ambrose. The main attraction in Ambrose is the House of Wax. Except something is not right in this town, the wax figures are so realistic and the whole town is deserted - except for two murderous twin brothers. The six friends must fight to survive and escape from being the next exhibits in the House of Wax.
