 DVD review of House of Wax (1953) - DVD Town
Considering that "House of Wax" was one of Warner Brothers' biggest, most-lavish productions of the early 1950s, the studio's audiovisual treatment of the movie on this DVD seems awfully shabby.
The most famous scene is one of a man advertising the opening of Jarrod's new House of Wax by banging away on elastic-tethered paddle balls in front of the building.
The Martin and Lewis film was a comedy, and it was the only the last few minutes that startled me. But "House of Wax" terrified me all the way through, and I couldn't go into a wax museum for the next decade without wondering if there weren't dead bodies under the wax.

House of Wax is the feature I was most interested in having never before seen Mystery of the Wax Museum, but that is a good movie in it's own right and is deserving of a separate release.

House of Wax is intent on graphic close ups of blood spurting fingers, stab wounds and beheadings, thus losing a chance to become really psychologically scary, rather than shudderingly graphically violent.
House of Wax is all about "keeping it in the family" as separated Siamese brothers Bo and Vincent pursue twins Carly and Nick in a ghost town of wax bodies and melting buildings.

 Hollywood Gothique: House of Wax (1953) Review
HOUSE OF WAX was eagerly embraced by the audiences of its day, earning a spectacular $4.3-million (at 1953 ticket prices).
Although HOUSE OF WAX did not generate a sequel, the box office returns did spawn a brief wave of 3D thrillers, including a sort of unofficial follow up: Vincent Price played a similar role in Columbia Pictures’ THE MAD MAGICIAN (1954), which was written by Crane Wilbur, who had also scripted HOUSE OF WAX.
Seen today, on home video or at occasional 3-D theatrical revivals, HOUSE OF WAX is an interesting museum piece, worth watching for the stereoscopic effects and as an example of old-fashioned horror filmmaking.

 IGN: House of Wax (2005) Review
House of Wax takes an awfully long time before it starts dispensing bodies, and while I wish I could say that was because of some sense of either care or cleverness, that's hardly the case.
House of Wax isn't necessarily a very good movie; the acting is of such varying quality that it really becomes a problem in sustaining credible mood.
No, it's the fact that House of Wax is studded with such a choking number of incongruities and irritations, small and large, that it eventually — or rather quickly, actually — deflates even the possibility of vicarious shock fun.

 House of Wax (2005): Elisha Cuthbert, Chad Michael Murray, Brian Van Holt, Paris Hilton - PopMatters Film Review
When, finally, Wade and Carly stumble on the literal "House of Wax" (a local museum featuring wax figures, wax walls, wax furniture, wax floors -- apparently the sun does not shine too fiercely in Ambrose), you're feeling ready to have their adventure over with already.
The couples, though, are the least of House of Wax's concerns, mere devices to get the young people into various states of undress or vulnerability.

 CANOE -- JAM! Movies - House Of Wax Review - 'House Of Wax' not the usual shock shlock
House Of Wax is smarter than most horror movies, and the violence is less cartoonish and hence, more disgusting -- Elisha Cuthbert, for example, does an impressive job with a blunt object on someone's head; the sound effects and her facial expression may totally gross you out.
House Of Wax is produced by Joel Silver, which could explain the over-the-top finale, and written by twin brothers Chad Hayes and Carey Hayes, who weave various twin-ship issues through their story.
Although sexually active teenagers are still the ones who must die!!!!!!!!, House Of Wax is way smarter than most films of the genre: Nobody offers to go down into the basement, alone and in the dark, and people use their cell phones in emergencies and choose fairly intelligent hiding places.

House of Wax is not a good movie but it is an efficient one, and will deliver most of what anyone attending House of Wax could reasonably expect, assuming it would be unreasonable to expect very much.
It's a good thing Jaume Serra's House of Wax wasn't shot in 3-D like the original 1953 horror classic - Paris Hilton is in it and she doesn't have a third dimension.
Paris Hilton is the big draw in Jaume Collet-Serra's not-really-a-remake horror-slasher thriller House of Wax, and she'd have to be: There's so little else going on in it that you find yourself waiting for her few brief scenes.
