House of Wax deserves for you to at least give it a chance. I believe it's criminally underrated and one of the most entertaining horror movies of the 2000s.
A lot of the hate comes from the casting of Paris Hilton. Remember, this movie was released before social media took over your life, and your cellphone was your acquaintance and not your best friend. Paris had some fun one night with a green screen and had a reality show. She was a way too easy target for unnecessary hate. Not enough "Reality Fish" in the sea. Here's the thing: She plays herself. Makes fun of herself, and prances around in skimpy clothes. (That's hot!) She's not awful, and actually brings…
kind of crazy that there was a man named chad michael murray and we all just accepted that as ok! it's not!
THIS IS THE SHIT I LIVE FOR.
I would love to hear a few legitimate arguments against this movie being amazing (or to be completely honest, a horror masterpiece) that don’t regard the acting (which isn’t that bad) or how horror sucks and remakes are dumb. This is one of my new favorite movies and you could definitely say that its just my ginormous soft spot for horror movies that get a bad rep talking but I like to think that this is something really incredible. Also can we talk about how every song on that soundtrack is a fuckin’ banger?
I’m surprised it took me so long to this movie! It was entertaining! I had heard so many trash it because of Paris Hilton. It wasn’t fantastic but it was fun. Decent gore and creepy as hell! If you want to check it out you can find it on Tubi!
Is this the most 2000’s film ever?
Paris Hilton
The Deftones
Chad Michael Murray
Disturbed
Bobby from Scary Movie
Interpol
Jared Padalecki
My Chemical Romance
Either way - it rules, and is definitely one of my favorite horror remakes from this era.

A striking combo: Jaume Collet-Serra's meticulous build-up of vicious slasher set-pieces and crowdpleaser jolts, and an ensemble cast that is about as dumb as a bag of rocks. What if the Scooby gang was utterly incompetent? If you're looking to dive into the grimy world of 2000s horror remakes, this is one of the best. Gorgeous production design and a relentless quality to its revisionist brand of terror.
Cut to black immediately followed by Gerard Way yelling BURNING ON / JUST LIKE A MATCH YOU STRIKE TO INCINERATE. 5 bags of popcorn
The only bad thing about this film is the fact that Chad Michael Murray and Elisha Cuthbert have way too much ~sexual tension to be considered siblings.
Other than that this is a sold horror with some creepy parts, crazy deaths and pretty good acting. The finale is AWESOME and no one can tell me otherwise, as is the back story and the whole town and that. Paris Hilton is great, I wish she was in it more before her demise.
