House of Wax (2005)

Netflix Synopsis: A group of friends on their way to a college football game fall prey to two murderous brothers in an abandoned small town. They discover that the brothers have expanded upon the area’s main attraction — the House of Wax — and created an entire town filled with the wax-coated corpses of unlucky visitors. Now, the group must escape before they, too, become permanent exhibits. Stars Elisha Cuthbert, Chad Michael Murray and, yes, Paris Hilton!

Review: I am NOT a huge fan of horror or slasher flicks normally but I had to watch this one. I wanted to see if Paris Hilton actually had any talent other than being rich and it doesn’t hurt that Chad Michael Murray is such a cutie! I was not surprised to see that Paris’ talent is minimal, at best. Good thing she has so few lines and little to do with the actual main plot of the movie. I do have to say I was surprised that I actually liked House of Wax.I was on the edge of my seat at all the appropriate times and (after a slow start) the movie kept me engaged. The special effects in the movie were pretty good, especially at the end with the wax melting scenes. I will never be able to go to a Wax Museum again without thinking of this movie though!
