The House of Wax is a horror film directed by Jaume Collet-Serra. It is set in the USA. It stars Paris Hilton as Paige Edwards, Elisha Cuthbert as Carly Jones,Chad Michael Murray as Nick Jones, Brian Van Holt as Vincent, Jared Padalecki as Wade and Jon Abrahams as Dalton Chapman

Teenage friends Nick Jones, Wade, Dalton Chapman, Blake, Carly Jones and Paige Edwards must camp in a godforsaken part of Louisiana on their way to a college football game and get a good scare finding a pile of deer meat and one human arm- fake. After the fan belt of Wade's car breaks, he decides, not really a fan anyway, to stay behind with his girl while the others drive on. The two accept local's ride, but rather rudely make him stop doubting his sincerity, as turns out just outside the nearest town he tips them off to have a garage. It's a sleepy place, where they are scolding for interrupting a funeral to get the mechanic. Waiting for him, they wonder into the town's only attraction, an empty wax figures museum. After his arrival, they split up and their nightmare starts, ultimately being captured and tortured by a madman, or two, who already produced the wax people from once live ones. Meanwhile the other mates give up braving a traffic jam that make them lose time to attend the match, and return, only to fall prey themselves. Still some survive and fight back.
The film received a lot awards. Paris Hilton got the award for the best frightening performance. She also won the award for the choice movie scream scene Paige's scream when she's being chased by the killer. We really liked the film because of the action scenes, fright and because the actors are very good. We rate the film with four stars (****).
