HOUSE OF WAX

12:30

Friday, November 18

(1953, André de Toth) Mad sculptor Vincent Price – aided by mute henchman Charles Buchinsky (later, Bronson) – re-populates his Victorian Chamber of Horrors with wax-coated victims. And wouldn’t Carolyn Jones (TV’s Morticia Addams) make a lovely Joan of Arc? Watch out for that vat of boiling wax! Plus The Three Stooges in 3-D in SPOOKS (1953). Both DCP. Approx. 104 mins.

Reviews

“The effects are done with playfulness, zest, and some imagination […], making this the most entertaining of the gimmick 3-Ds.”
