There's a Rifftrax for House of Wax! I really want to watch it but I'll probably have to close my eyes during the icky parts 'cause that movie is really gross. And really really bad which makes it perfect for Rifftrax.
Here's their description of the movie:
Stop anybody on the street and ask them what their favourite Paris Hilton movie is, and chances are they'll say: “Is this a real survey? Why don't you have a pen or a clipboard? Oh my God, are you mugging me? Please, take everything, just don't hurt me!” Or they might, just might reply: “House of Wax”.
I'm pretty certain Vincent Price is dead, so I can say with tolerable confidence that this remake of his 1953 classic would cause him to turn over in his grave. I'm not sure why, it's just something the dead are supposed to do when they're ticked off – when Bill O'Reilly finally throws a seven, he'll most likely come close to perpetual motion.
But the sight of the insufferable, uber-spoilt heiress being stalked by a raving psycho intent on ramming a metal pole through her skull isn't the only reason for watching this movie. OK, it is the only reason, but damned if it ain't a good one. If they could've found a way to work it into Norbit, I would've watched that, too. In fact, it'd make the basis of a terrific reality series. Excuse me, I have to put in a call to Fox...
Seeing Paris Hilton die was the highlight of the movie but they really should have made her death more drawn out and horrible. I mean where was the torture and the suffering? I think after all that she has put us through, she deserves it.
ETA: I just found out that movie was nominated for like actual awards. Well okay just MTV and Teen Choice awards so not like really respectable ones but still WTF? Of course it was also nominated for Worst Movie and Worst Movie Remake at the Razzies and Paris Hilton won the Razzie for Worst Supporting Actress. Woohoo, you go girl and don't come back.
