It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Carly Jones (Elisha Cuthbert) and her boyfriend, Wade (Jared Padalecki) are going to the big college football game with a group of friends and her brother, Nick (Chad Michael Murray). Along the way, they get tired and look for a place to camp out for awhile and get some rest. The film has everything a horror fan like Innovative film, but the performance of Elisha was amazing, she makes the best, although the film is "notable for having some of the most idiotic protagonists ever to populate a horror movie," Cuthbert "fares the best" it is an exception. It's hard to find someone as versatile in professional life, it do well in comedies, horror, drama, romance, etc. Invite her to act in this film was the best idea, because not every actress who would do well in the role of Carly The film is hot, sexy, intensely uncomfortable and brings a delicious horror show

I don't know why this movie has so many negative reviews. Maybe it has something to do with Paris Hilton, maybe not; either way, this movie is very underrated. It is definitely one of the best horror movies I have ever seen. I'm always looking for some good horror movie to watch. I must admit, I almost always end up really disappointed after watching some horror movies. Anyways, I was at the store looking for a good horror movie to watch and then I saw House of wax on the shelves and decided to buy on DVD, even though I was sure, by looking at the cover and the title, (not to mention Paris Hilton) that it would be "just another horror movie" and another disappointment. Boy, I'm so glad I was wrong!The plot is great; it kept me wondering what was going to happen next. I liked the cast and pretty much all characters in the movie. The acting is really good; even Paris Hilton did a good acting, I might add. The death scenes are very gruesome... I hadn't seen anything like it in any other horror movie.If you are into horror movies and still haven't seen House of Wax, I highly recommend you do so. It is a great horror movie to watch, despite all the negative reviews.

Carly Jones (Elisha Cuthbert), her boyfriend Wade (Jared Padalecki), her troubled brother Nick (Chad Michael Murray), her best friend Paige Edwards (Paris Hilton), Paige's boyfriend Blake and Dalton Chapman are on their way to a football game. They take a detour and decide to camp out for the night. A muddy truck interrupts them and Nick throws a bottle that bust one of the headlights. The next day, Wade's fan belt is cut. Carly discovers a pit of dead animals. Wade and Carly catch a ride from the roadkill driver. They find the town of Ambrose virtually deserted. Most of the small town is attending a funeral. Bo (Brian Van Holt) needs to finish the funeral before selling the fan belt. The couple decides to go into the closed House of Wax. Their friends are driving back after getting stuck in traffic.This thing starts pretty slow. It turns into a traditional slasher horror movie. The good news is that Paris Hilton gets killed. The wax figures are good creepy background. Elisha Cuthbert is a good scream queen and there is nothing wrong with a slasher movie where pretty young people get massacred.
