HOUSE OF WAX (2005) Commentary Track

Box Office Pulp

It's Wax Season here on Box Office Pulp! Just in time for the release of her new book Millennial Nasties, we welcome back friend of the show Ariel Powers-Schaub, and what better to discuss than one of the nastiest of the era, Disney's Jungle Cruise director Jaume Collet-Serra's House of Wax. For BOP n' A Movie's second trip to the Dark Castle, this commentary track goes back to a time when everybody wanted that Leatherface money, and you could market a film based on watching Paris Hilton die. Maligned by many genre fans on release, the most 2005 movie of all time also boasts some of the best body horror the decade, practical effects that are still chilling to behold, and the last great location from a studio once dedicated to keeping sets alive. Grab a seat (made of wax) and listen to the first of our love letters (of wax) to an oft-overlooked sub-genre (it's wax).
