This Wax's infusion of Paris Hilton and flirty teen sex comedy retreads might have sent original wax maniac Vincent Price into spontaneous meltdown, without the need of heating fluid.

Not just fun and funny (don't forget, Paris Hilton's in it), but it's also surprisingly frightening.

The film’s storyline has more in common with Manos, The Hands of Fate than the original House of Wax.
