    Saturday Morning Cinema – House of Wax (2005)

    About a 5-minute read Wax on. Wax off. Paris Hilton. Pre-“Sammy” Padalecki. Serial Siamese Twins. A mid-aughts horror delicacy. When you think of 2005’s House of Wax, do you think of Paris Hilton? I do. It’s easy to dismiss the movie because of her presence, not that anything she did or did not do in…
