House of Wax is admirable as one of the few movies - and even fewer horror movies - to feature an interracial couple without mention of race. Full Review | Original Score: 2.8/5 | Jan 10, 2020

(Photo by © Warner Brothers) Since House of Wax, director Collett-Sera has made a reputation for doing a whole lot with not much.

Warner Brothers’ marketing had gone out with the slogan “See Paris Die!”and Collett-Sera made sure to fulfill the promise...
(Photo by © Warner Brothers) And not just because of the Paris factor. Like the town of Ambrose itself, House of Wax is a time capsule, and watching it today is strangely comforting – especially if you’re longing for the simpler days of playing Snake 2 on your NOKIA. The movie came out just before technology evolved to a level where a plot like thi...
