HOUSE OF WAX (1953). This was on the same disc as MYSTERY IN THE WAX MUSEUM and as Classic Horror Fan observed, this is the superior version, although quite similar in parts. Vincent Price is awesome-I thunk this is the film that got people thinking of him as a Horror actor-, the rest of the cast is good (A blonde Carolyn Jones!), great makeup and absolute barnstorming opening/closing of the film.
Saw this at a Midnight movie back in the early 80's in 3-D and thought it was OK, but not much else. Have to say this time I found it quite enjoyable (really good sets also) and would recommend it heartily. Also, check out a very young Charles Bronson! ****
