Hilton's House of Wax

I heard she gets killed in the flick

If that is so, I automatically give it an extra star. If the dog is with her, I give the movie 4 stars no matter how excretable it turns out to be

The cast of the new flick really excites me (not)

Paris Hilton almost makes me not want my name to be associated with the term actor.

I love the girl, but come on; Who believes her when she says she's an actor?

Posted: 5/2/05 at 7:41pm

I know how she dies... If dont wanna know DO NOT LOOK AT THIS!

:SPOILER:

Like you've seen the trailer she is running well she runs into a car and the killer smashes a pipe thru the window which goes thru her head.



Nothing's in there, so how could it hurt?!

:END OF SPOILER:

Perfect waste of a good pipe

Hopefully, she will get an Oscar nod for it . He he he

I would eat a bottle of prescription pills, drink a bottle of vodka, slice my wrists and then hang myself if she were ever nominated for an Academy Award.

Nice to see you would take it in a mature manner

Anyone who would attempt to remake an admitted classic of the genre should be thrown into a boiling vat of wax

Where is William Castle when you need him ?

Thanks.

I have no interest in seeing this annoying shiksa in anything.

"Nothing's in there, so how could it hurt?"

ClumsyDude, how true. How convenient for the producers, then, not having to hire a stunt person to do that scene.

Is she seriously considering acting?

[Joshua488]

Posted: 5/2/05 at 10:13pm

Yes.

Sadly.

I forsee a number of razzie nominations for this turkey

I'm seeing it for Chad Michael Murray. Paris getting killed is just an added bonus... and I've never seen the original so I have nothing to compare it to.

I dunno...living wax figures trying to kill people...sounds pretty damn creepy. But I've always been scared of that kind of thing. Same for killer dolls.

Miss Hilton is also pursuing a music career, having recorded an album that is soon to be released on her own record label, Heiress Records.

She is certainly seizing all available opportunities.

TV, film, recording...that only leaves stage...

I'm not saying Hilton can act or sing, or even design jewelry. From what I've seen so far, her acting and singing skills predictably leave a lot to be desired.

I'm not saying she has a chance at EVER being nominated for any sort of prestigious award, but I don't understand why people feel the need to constantly bashing someone for trying to do new things. She obviously doesn't need the money, so I applaud her for trying new things. She's obviously got to be good at SOMETHING, so hopefully she'll find what she's good at. But I just hate when people feel the need to be so nasty and over dramatic about her coming out with a CD and and a movie. Don't deem someone talentless before you've seen them really do something worth while.

And before I get rocks thrown at me - I'm not saying she's talented - I really don't think she is - but I wouldn't so quickly dismiss someone just because they're constantly in the public spotlight and seem to have done nothing worthwhile.

Certainly I am not judging Miss Hilton.

I applaud the fact that she is venturing out into so many endeavors, we all would do the same given the opportunity.

And she's not doing Hamlet, she's in a re-make of a horror flick in which she does a strip-tease. From what I have heard of her first single from her album, I like it, very catchy and fun sounding. On her TV show she is herself. All of these projects seem to be well within her range.

Maybe she will surprise the naysayers and be fabulous. That would be the greatest revenge of all for her wouldn't it?

To Cats

See the original with Vincent Price & than imagine it in 3 D . Get the DVD & see the original film it was based on as well

Coincidentally, the director of the original, Andre DeToth, could only "imagine it in 3-D" as well. He had one eye, and therefore had no depth perception!

As for the remake, I've already seen the scene of Paris dancing around in her undies twice on TV. I feel no need to see the rest of the movie.

I personally can't wait to see this movie. The trailer terrifies me. I am trying not to get too excited after the mahoosive disappointment of The Amityville Horror, but this will be better. It can't be any worse.

Apparently there are Tshirts to promote this that say "See Paris Die," which at first disturbed her, but then her response became "Whatever it takes to get people to come see the movie. I do have the best death scene in the whole film, after all." - I'm frightened that I enjoyed that comment of hers. She's sarting to talk like an actress.:) (I read this as some blurb in the RedEye a few days ago)

I just read a review online, and the critic gave it ***1/2 our of ****.

I quote a section of the review:

"Many potential audience members will probably be going to see the major acting debut of Paris Hilton (2003's "The Cat in the Hat") and, more specifically, her much-publicized death scene. For this, they will not be disappointed; her murder is the most lingering and gruesome of the bunch. What these same Paris haters may be disappointed to find, however, is a performance that isn't bad at all. Hilton meshes well with her castmates without drawing much attention to herself, and naturalistically plays a character that rarely even seems like her glitzy real-life persona. She's fun to watch onscreen, and is a good sport at slyly poking fun at herself, as in a moment involving a pile of cell phones that don't work.

"House of Wax" is the first unequivocally good—and often downright great—popcorn entertainment of the still-early summer movie season, and the most satisfying release from Robert Zemeckis' Dark Castle horror label, to date. Scary, scream-and-squirm-inducing, and legitimately suspenseful, "House of Wax" proves that the slasher movie, a genre that has never gotten the respect it deserves, is alive and well. As with 1996's "Scream" before it, it simply takes a masterful one to reinvigorate the genre and show how it can be done right. Stuffy, narrow-minded critics be damned, "House of Wax" is one of the most well-made and stylistically accomplished films of the year."

There is a store here in LA called Kitson and they have shirts that are selling like hotcakes that say "Come see Paris die on May 6th" Her mom was not too happy about these shirts and said she will beat anyone down she see's wearing one! LOL
