  • House of Wax (1953) is an American horror film starring Vincent Price, a remake of Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933). It was the first 3-D color feature film from a major American studio, following independent movie Bwana Devil. These two movies sparked the 3-D movie boom of the 1950s. Price plays Professor Henry Jarrod, a devoted wax sculptor with a museum in 1910s New York. A disagreement with his financial partner, Matthew Burke, leaves Jarrod amid the burned ruins of his own museum, alive but severely injured. With the aid of a deaf-mute sculptor named Igor, Jarrod builds a new House of Wax that showcases historical and contemporary crimes, including the murder of his former business partner. However, all is not what it seems in Jarrod's wax museum, and a friend of Burke's fiancee is about to make a horrifying discovery...
