About this product

Product Information

André de Toth's remake of MYSTERY OF THE WAX MUSEUM is one of the first and best 3-D (stereoscopic) feature films, an alternative technology (like Cinemascope, Cinerama) used by 1950s directors attempting to compete with the new threat of television. Professor Jarrod (Vincent Price) is a devoted wax figure sculptor for his museum in 1910s NYC. When his financial partner, Sidney Wallace (Paul Cavanagh), demands more sensational exhibits to increase profits, Jarrod refuses. The vengeful Wallace torches the museum, leaving Jarrod for dead. Miraculously, Jarrod survives (though his hands and legs are rendered useless) and builds a new House of Wax with help from threatening deaf-mute sculptor, Igor (Charles Bronson). The museum's popular "Chamber of Horrors" showcases recent crimes like the murder of Wallace, a victim of a cloaked, disfigured killer along with his fiancée, Cathy (Carolyn Jones). When Cathy's friend, Sue (Phyllis Kirk), visits the museum she makes a discovery that leads to the horrifying truth behind the House of Wax. With gasp inducing (and tongue-in-cheek) 3-D scenes like the museum fire, paddleball man, and can-can girls, de Toth creates an atmospheric film which stands up as a horror classic in 2-D as well.

  • A Good Old Fashioned Wholesome 1950's Horror Movie!

    I purchased this DVD to play at a Halloween Party. What could be better than a Vincent Price monster movie Co-Starring "Charles Buchinsky" AKA Charles Bronson, after the 1950's Red Scare and His agent suggested a name change so as not to arouse any suspicion that he might be a "Commie". Give me a break! But they had their conspiracy theorists back then too! It's a Fun movie with the disfigured madman on a rampage to get revenge for those who he deemed responsible for destroying his first Wax figure gallery. Also Co-starring a young Carolyn Jones (Addam's family's Morticia). A Great old fashioned wholesome American Horror film form the 1950's!

  • One Of Vincent Price's Gems

    This is one of my favorite's with Vincent Price, along with House of Usher, and Pit and Pendulum. This film is in color, and it includes some film from 1933 on the other side. It came in a keep-case, and arrived in great condition. If your a classic horror fan you will love this revenge tale.

  • The wax museum

    Vincent Price thought it would be too hard to repeat The Mystery if the Wax Museum against the great role That Loinel Atill played, however Vincent Price did an even better portraiture of the same character !
